At this year’s Infosec World CISO Leadership Summit, Carolina Advanced Digital’s VP of Engineering switches roles and presents on topics of mindfulness-based leadership for infosec professionals, and navigating through change.

In today’s high-stakes cybersecurity environment, chief information security officers must be more than technology and people managers. An effective CISO is a combination of business leader, risk visionary, technology translator and team mentor and enabler. If this sounds different than the technology-focused infosec path of the past, that’s because it is. To be an effective leader, security practitioners must become strategists who can look across the entire organization—its technology and people—and identify vulnerabilities proactively. These vulnerabilities, though, aren’t what you will find in the CVE; instead, leaders understand that running a proactive, capable security organization starts with people and processes. And to accomplish that, the CISO her/himself must first possess the leadership skills and tools to inspire those around them.

Attend the CISO Leadership Summit to participate in this interactive day of learning with peers, and take home new techniques and ideas to inspire and lead your organization.

9:00 AM – 10:00 AM 
Inside & Out: Mindfulness-Based Leadership
Jennifer Minella, Vice President of Engineering & Security, Carolina Advanced Digital

Leaders in any organization aren’t necessarily the people on top of the org chart. Take a break from the conference mayhem and join peers for a candid session on leading from all sides including from within, using mindfulness to increase performance and efficiency in the workplace, increasing EQ, and building a toolset for bringing mindfulness to your professional life.

Take-away skills include a new level of listening and engaging, differentiating reactions from responses, and tips and tricks for finding the time and space each day to focus on the most important tasks.

10:00 AM – 10:45 AM 
The Pace of Change: Building a Change Culture, How to Lead Teams through Change
Jennifer Minella, Vice President of Engineering & Security, Carolina Advanced Digital

“Nothing endures but change.” The popular quote summarizes Heraclitus’ understanding that change was central to the universe. Yet, the complex human brain is often change averse, and leading oneself through change is challenging enough. The prospect of leading a team or entire organization through change may seem insurmountable. Leading through change means taking an inside-out approach and effectively wielding the weapons of culture and communication in managing conflict and complexity throughout change—at every level.

Build your toolset for leading through change, creating a change culture and managing the risks while reaping rewards.

11:00 AM – 12:30 PM 
Workshop: Board Level Communications Challenges and Opportunities
Tony Spinelli, Chief Operating Officer, Fractal Industries, Inc

Demonstrating the progress of your program, strategy, and your personal leadership brand are some of the challenges and opportunities you have to build credibility and confidence with your company’s Board of Directors and executive management. It’s become the norm for cybersecurity leaders to meet with a company’s Board of Directors on a regular basis, and it’s your one opportunity in the spotlight to demonstrate your leadership and command of risk management and cybersecurity.

The Board’s responsibility is oversight and governance for what has been identified as a top risk for nearly every company: cybersecurity. With that in mind, security leaders should expect to be incredibly challenged and receive deep inquiry about the dimensions of your program, the program’s maturity against your peers, and how you and your program have addressed the most recent cybersecurity threats.

Given these challenges we’ll discuss the methods to effectively articulate your program’s maturity, risks and threats, and how to best communicate cybersecurity leadership, risk management and demonstrate well-managed stewardship.
