Request SpeakerSpeaker Bio
Erwann O. Michel-Kerjan, Ph.D., is a keynote speaker and an expert on how to deal with risks, how to figure out how much they will cost, and how they will affect public policy. He teaches Value Creation at the Wharton MBA program at Philadelphia’s Wharton School of Business, one of the world’s best business schools. He is the Executive Director of Wharton Risk Management and Decision Processes Center. For the past 30 years, this center has been on the cutting edge of research and new ideas about handling extreme events better.
Because our world is becoming more dependent on each other, this new era calls for a new way of thinking. Dr. Michel-Kerjan talks to key decision-makers to help global companies, governments, and leaders deal with this new risk environment and create long-term prosperity. Since 2008, he has been in charge of the OECD Secretary-General Board on Financial Management of Catastrophes. This board helps the finance ministers of the 34 OECD member countries with these kinds of issues.
Erwann is in charge of McKinsey’s insurance and risk business in North America. He has been doing this for 20 years and can help clients with change, resilience, risk management, organizational effectiveness, risk culture, behavioral economics, and decision-making. He can also help clients with the effect at scale. He works hard to develop and implement digital solutions that help companies and the government work better.
The World Economic Forum (Davos) named Dr. Michel-Kerjan a Young Global Leader. This is a five-year title given to the world’s most outstanding leaders under 40. Nicolas Sarkozy, president at the time, led the Young Global Leaders G20 Paris initiative on Global Risks in 2011. Dr. Michel-Kerjan won the prestigious Kulp-Wright award in 2011 for making the most important contribution to the literature on risk management (At War with the Weather, MIT Press, co-written with H. Kunreuther). He has written or co-written over 70 publications on catastrophe risk management, given more than 100 public speeches, and regularly gives his opinion to major media outlets. He went to Harvard, McGill, and the Ecole Polytechnique in France and Canada (USA).
Before joining McKinsey in 2017, Erwann worked as a leader in prestigious companies, non-profits, international organizations, and academic institutions in the Americas and Europe.
He was one of the first to join the Global Risks Initiative of the World Economic Forum and often speaks at Davos. The World Economic Forum chose him as one of the best young leaders in the world who is under 40 years old. His consulting services have been used by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the World Bank, and the United Nations.
Erwann has also written for many well-known magazines and newspapers, including Bloomberg, the Financial Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Economist, the New York Times, the Washington Post, Le Monde, and Le Figaro.
