Caitlin Drago

Caitlin Drago

The most impactful thing a speaker can do, is to facilitate an experience, and help participants to draw a correlation between the experience, what they learned and how they will apply it in their life. Because of this, each talk involves both interaction with the audience and personal reflection time.

In her interactive workshops and keynote addresses, Caitlin quickly quells the, “I could never do improv!” fear and makes accessible, the principles professional actors use, to be better communicators, teammates, and leaders.
Disarming and energetic, Caitlin opens up the most skeptical attendees, allowing them to learn through applying the Improv Approach, and even crack a smile along the way.

Caitlin Drago’s mission is to create cultures of empathy, creativity, and trust, beginning with how people communicate and connect.

She is an LA-based actor turned upstate NY-based certified leadership coach, trainer, facilitator, and author of Approaching Improv – Communication and Connection in Business and Beyond. Acting taught her to be present, self-aware, empathetic and to prioritize connection with others. Improv taught her to listen, trust her gut and deal with the unexpected in a positive and creative way. She currently works with leaders and teams to help them to listen to one another, communicate and connect, using improvisation as a platform for interactive learning.

Caitlin spent ten years studying improv at places like the nationally accredited Upright Citizen’s Brigade and has spent the last nine years working with leaders and their teams across industries, including, but not limited to higher education, hospitality, tech, marketing, healthcare and real estate. She’s been featured in Medium’s Authority Magazine, Rochester’s Democrat and Chronicle, a variety of podcasts and has spoken at various conferences, including the Talent Development Think Tank, the International TWA Conference, CNY SHRM, and DisruptHR Rochester.

Past clients include:
Gartner
Rochester Regional Health System
Starbucks
Fee Brothers

Testimonials:

“Caitlin's energy, enthusiasm, and sprinkling of humor eased the tensions in our group and the entire experience was packed with valuable team collaboration insights. We found ourselves using this technique the very same day we learned it.”

S.M. Digitronik Labs

“We focused on communication in a completely different way. Not a seminar-feel, but a fun, engaging way to demonstrate the importance of being open and positive. I stepped
outside my comfort zone. As an introvert, the idea of improv was horrifying. But it was fun!”

J.G., VWR

"Caitlin did an excellent job facilitating a workshop for my team. From the time we first met to preparation and the actual workshop, she was helpful and engaging and was highly focused on ensuring my workshop went the way I had envisioned. My team had excellent feedback afterwards and I can say it had an immediate positive impact on how my team interacted and felt about communication."

Dewayne Hart

Dewayne Hart

As cyber threats escalate in speed and sophistication, the security landscape demands advanced knowledge through awareness, activation, and improved practice. This is where Dewayne Hart works best. He is an all-cyber professional who believes cybersecurity is no longer just a technical issue — it is a leadership, mindset, and quality-of-life challenge that shapes how we live, work, and connect.

Known for delivering common-sense strategies and actionable roadmaps, Hart helps businesses and citizens stay proactive against rapidly evolving threat actors in an increasingly digital world. At the core of his approach is a simple but powerful idea: to defend effectively, people must learn to think like adversaries. He equips his audiences with the knowledge, resources, and tools to put on a "Hacker's Hat," enabling them to anticipate threats before they become incidents.

Hart has lived the operator-to-leader path he teaches. Over twenty years in the U.S. Navy, he rose from maintaining computer systems and weapons-defense platforms to leading information-security efforts — experience that shaped his mission-focused discipline and operational approach to the field. In 2014, he founded Secure Managed Instructional Systems, LLC (SEMAIS), a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business specializing in cybersecurity advisory and workforce development, guided by its motto: "Sustaining 360-Degree Cyber Visibility." He holds the CISSP, CEH, CGRC, and CND certifications and a Master of Science in Information Assurance, and has strengthened cyber and workforce programs across the DoD and federal government, including the U.S. Army, Defense Logistics Agency, and Department of Veterans Affairs.

A recognized voice in the cybersecurity community, Hart hosts the Chief of Cybersecurity platform, where he explores how security directly affects everyday digital life. His work spans artificial intelligence, cybersecurity leadership, cyber awareness, workforce modernization, and cybercrime — bridging technical realities with leadership accountability. He is the author of two books examining how mindset and leadership, not just technology, shape digital safety: The Cybersecurity Mindset: A Virtual and Transformational Thinking Mode, which challenges readers to rethink risk and resilience, and Cybersecurity Leadership: How to Develop a Successful Mentality and Win, which examines how leadership decisions and culture influence security outcomes.

From the National Cybersecurity Summit to the Incyber Forum, Techno Security & Digital Forensics, GovTechCon, Capitol Technology University, and AFCEA conferences nationwide, Hart has inspired executives, practitioners, and students alike. Through his advisory, speaking, and writing, he equips security teams with the foresight to transform cybersecurity from a reactive technical task into a definitive strategic advantage.

My journey has been largely around technology, digital skills, education and using technology to solve practical problems.

Through Soteria Technologies, I have had the opportunity to work on initiatives around digital literacy, education technology, ICT infrastructure, Internet governance and community digital access.

But one thing I have learned is that having a good technology solution is only one part of the journey.

You also have to understand the people you are serving, build relationships, manage resources, find sustainable ways to operate, build partnerships and create systems that allow the work to continue.

That is why I chose this topic.

I want us to look beyond the excitement of building the product and talk about what it really takes to turn that product into a functioning and sustainable organization.
