Contracts are often seen as the backbone of third-party relationships, but are they really protecting your organization from risk? In this episode, Linda Tuck Chapman sits down with Lawrence Kane and Jeanette Nyden to explore how contractual terms, governance, and negotiation strategies shape third-party risk management in practice.

You’ll walk away with practical guidance on:
• Understanding why risk cannot be fully “transferred” and what controls actually work
• Embedding business continuity, resilience, and performance obligations into contracts
• Navigating liability limits, indemnities, and warranties with real-world examples
• Knowing when to renegotiate, amend, or exit contracts responsibly
• Aligning procurement, legal, and risk functions for stronger vendor oversight

This episode is perfect for:
• Contract Managers, Procurement Leaders, and Vendor Risk Managers
• Third-Party Risk, Compliance, and Governance Professionals
• Legal, Audit, and Operations Executives dealing with complex supplier contracts
• Anyone responsible for protecting their organization from contract-related risk exposure
