PAY PROTO is one of our current projects. We are prototyping a pay prototype using Y design. A free principal–agent agreements of $250K+ in downloadable template form. Agreements are crafted to eliminate wage gaps across all genders, all races, all demographics, all classes, and all educational levels toward parity.

Risk Design™ views organizational risk through a full-spectrum supply chain lens. The entire supply chain perspective is rationally weighed.
This includes:
Internal operations
External partnerships
Stakeholder relationships
Information flows
Decision bottlenecks
Vendor dependencies
Institutional trust structures
Service delivery systems
Human capital systems
Financial processes
Public-private interactions
Rather than treating departments or functions in isolation, the practice evaluates how risk travels across interconnected systems.
Our central question:
“How is risk being designed, transferred, incentivized, or unintentionally embedded throughout the organization and its supply chain?”
-
Traditional risk managing thinking will often asked,
“How do we control risk?”
However, given the science of risks risk designers find more value in,
“What continuously produces risk?”
Risk designing moves our practice from reacting to rationale responses; from managing mitigation to meta-planning; and from “pieces” of data to patterns. Read Dr. Hubbard’s book, Pieces.

WhyteRock Risk is a nonprofit risk design practice.
Risk Design emerged in response to the principal–agent problem — the structural conflict that occurs when decision-makers, institutions, employees, leadership, investors, or governing bodies operate with:
unequal information,
competing incentives,
fragmented priorities,
and limited accountability.
Within this framework, risk is not viewed merely as an external event.
Risk is often internally manufactured through:
misaligned incentives,
poor systems design,
fragmented governance,
wage inequality,
communication failures,
institutional rigidity,
and long-term structural imbalance.
