Budgets that never get approved, incidents where everyone looks for someone to blame, projects that security learns about only after something goes wrong—these are not technical failures; they are communication failures.
In this session, we’ll explore the cultural and linguistic gap between cybersecurity teams and executives—why they think differently, speak differently, and often misunderstand each other.
Through real-world examples and years of boardroom experience, I’ll show how to decode the language of the business and translate technical risks into strategic priorities.
You’ll learn how to frame cybersecurity conversations that resonate with leaders, build credibility, and turn “no” into “how soon can we start?” Because earning a seat at the table isn’t about being louder—it’s about being understood.
