    Natural Disaster Expo 2026 Speaker Series: Adam Lee on Making the Case for Resilience in Healthcare

    Welcome to Natural Disasters Expo Houston! For its fifth year, Natural Disasters Expo USA comes back to Houston on October 14–15, 2026, at the George R. Brown Convention Center. And there’s no better place. This city knows what it takes to prepare for disasters, respond, and rebuild afterward. For two days, industry leaders, government agencies, first responders, and resilience professionals will come together with one shared goal: helping communities weather the next storm stronger than the last. Explore new solutions and technology, learn from front-line experts, and meet the partners who will help you turn preparedness into action. Whether you’re here to learn, share, or collaborate, you’re part of the effort to build a more resilient nation. In this speaker series, Tom Fox interviews guest Adam Lee, Director of Emergency Management & Organizational Resilience at Memorial Hermann Health System. Lee describes overseeing emergency management preparedness, business continuity, and operational continuity and shares highlights from his talk, “Making the Case for Resilience in Healthcare.” He argues resilience is no longer about if but when, especially as health systems with small margins must still function during disasters to serve their communities and fulfill their mission. Lee notes resilience requires cross-functional collaboration and extends beyond IT into operations, workforce, facilities, and overall organizational functioning, with evolving threats including hurricanes, cyber risks, and mass casualty events. He hopes to learn from other speakers, gain new perspectives, and expand professional networks.

She and co-presenter Mandy Feindt will combine Feindt’s firsthand experience from the Red Hill fuel spill crisis in Hawaii with Forsythe’s lessons on building trust, honest communication, humility, and effective interagency coordination during disasters. Forsythe notes these principles apply to businesses and leaders whose viability can be impacted by crisis communication, including the risk of “one bad interview.” She aims to share hard-learned lessons, including from the 2017 Santa Rosa, California, fires, and to connect with practitioners in Houston.

    IIA President Anthony Pugliese on the IIA’s Expanding Role in AI, Cybersecurity, and Geopolitical Risk

    In this episode, Tom Fox welcomes Anthony Pugliese, President and CEO of The Institute of Internal Auditors Inc. We begin with the IIA’s global footprint, with boards in 122 countries; its role in setting internal audit standards; certifications, including the Certified Internal Auditor credential with about 225,000 holders; and education. Pugliese describes how internal audit is shifting from primarily financial controls to a broader focus on non-financial risks, including cybersecurity, AI and disruptive technologies, sustainability reporting, business resilience, and geopolitical risk. He emphasizes internal audit’s growing prospective/advisory role, particularly in assessing whether AI governance is keeping pace with rapid adoption and in communicating complex risks to boards and audit committees. Cybersecurity is cited as chief audit executives’ top concern and increasingly requires continuous monitoring. Pugliese notes members want more industry-specific guidance and expanded GRC resources relevant to compliance and directs listeners to iia.org and the free annual Risk in Focus report.

In this speaker series, Tom Fox interviews Dr. Joseph Colaco about Reducing Hurricane Damage in Houston’s Expanding High-Rise Environment. Dr. Colaco is a tenured University of Houston architecture professor and president of Dr. Colaco Engineers. He visits with Tom about his upcoming presentation on reducing hurricane damage in Houston’s growing high-rise environment. Dr. Colaco describes assessing building performance during Hurricane Alicia in 1983, including firsthand observations downtown, documentation of facade damage, and visits to the Galleria area and Galveston. He explains that Houston’s increased density and taller buildings create new wind-flow conditions, making some older wind-tunnel results less applicable; he notes Houston began wind-tunnel and window-wall facade testing in the 1970s to inform design and construction. Dr. Colaco values conferences for networking and for transferring lessons learned across generations and cites Chicago’s periodic inspection requirements for tall buildings as a model for improving building safety and living conditions in Houston.

He discusses his upcoming Disaster Expo 2026 presentation in Houston, “Storm Ready: Analyzing Winter Storm Uri and Preparing for Future Winter Hazards.” Caron explains forensic meteorology as expert witness work in litigation involving weather-related incidents, then outlines how a displaced polar vortex during Uri placed all 254 Texas counties under winter storm warnings, drove Dallas–Fort Worth to -2°F, nearly collapsed ERCOT, cut power to about 4.5 million customers, and spiked natural gas prices above 1,000 MMBTU. He will use his financial institution lead-time forecasting experience as a case study and offer practical preparedness guidance for emergency management, grid and energy operators, and businesses, noting that Uri broadened business awareness of winter risk and that a strong El Niño could elevate winter 2026/27 threats.

He explains that before Harvey, the department had limited high-water exposure, lacked boats and swift-water capability, and then added equipment and planning after prior floods while still maintaining normal EMS call volume during Harvey. Mulligan also discusses attending a broader disaster conference to learn how emergency response affects downstream mitigation and recovery.

    From Prosecutor to White Collar Lawyer to CCO and Back: Mike Koenig

    In this episode, Tom Fox welcomes Mike Koenig to talk about his career and his recent move back to private practice after a 5-year stint at JBS. Mike is one of the few folks to move from private practice to an in-house CCO role, then back to private practice. Mike began by reviewing his career, from 25 years in private practice and a 2003 DOJ Fraud Section stint prosecuting corporate fraud to becoming chief compliance officer at JBS in August 2021 amid DOJ and SEC settlement agreements requiring an effective compliance program. He describes learning to operate within business-driven priorities by building relationships, learning the business and culture, “educating not dictating,” and securing C-suite, board, and audit committee buy-in, including CEO-driven training completion. He explains that he uses trusted outside experts and focuses on the specific problem to solve rather than “boiling the ocean.” After JBS completed the settlements and listed on the NYSE in June 2025, he returned to private practice at Friedman Kaplan to advise on investigations and compliance, emphasizing concise, solution-oriented counsel. He warns against de-prioritizing compliance despite reduced enforcement, urges risk assessments (tariffs, export controls, and human rights), and recommends using DOJ compliance guidance to review programs.
