Joanna Wiggum is the founder and agency principal of Countervail, a cybersecurity and licensed investigative agency providing fractional CISO services, cybercrime investigations, and adversary-informed training shaped by Fortune 100 security leadership, red-team expertise, enterprise incident response, and the operational discipline of military aviation.

She brings more than two decades of experience across Air Force mission operations, enterprise cybersecurity leadership, Big Tech incident response, red-team operations, and cybercrime prevention. Joanna began her career as an Air Force Interface Control Technician supporting operations during Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom. After three years of enlisted service, she was awarded a command-nominated scholarship to commission as an officer, and later earned her wings as a B-52 Weapons Systems Officer, operating in high-consequence environments where timing, trust, and decision discipline directly affected mission outcomes.

Her cybersecurity career includes building and delivering Starbucks’ red team, serving as Director of Cybersecurity over Application Security and Vulnerability Management, leading Oracle Cloud red-team operations, building Oracle Cloud’s Trust and Safety program, and leading Microsoft security incident response across Azure Cloud and AI environments.

Joanna holds a bachelor’s degree in International Security Studies and a master’s degree in Human Relations, combining formal study in security, strategy, and human behavior with operational experience across military and enterprise cybersecurity environments. Her current work focuses on how adversaries exploit trust, authority, pressure, and human decision-making in ways traditional security controls often miss.

Technology companies rarely struggle because they lack tools, processes, or talented people. They struggle because software delivery has become too complex, important decisions are disconnected from business goals, and transformation initiatives produce activity instead of measurable results.

I help organizations identify and remove the real constraints that slow down engineering: unclear priorities, fragile architecture, ineffective delivery practices, legacy systems, organizational friction, and poorly adopted tools.

My work sits at the intersection of software engineering, product development, technology strategy, and organizational change. I combine more than 20 years of hands-on and leadership experience, including senior roles at Microsoft, to turn complex problems into clear decisions and executable plans.

I work primarily with C-suite executives and senior technology leaders on the restructuring, optimization, and transformation of product, engineering, and broader R&D organizations. This includes clarifying responsibilities, redesigning operating models, improving collaboration between product and engineering, removing organizational bottlenecks, and ensuring that teams are structured around business outcomes rather than internal activity.

Today, I focus particularly on AI-assisted software development, engineering productivity, software modernization, and pragmatic technology transformation. I help leaders and engineering teams decide where AI and modern tools create genuine leverage and where they merely add cost, risk, and complexity.

I challenge assumptions, simplify complicated environments, and focus on changes that improve delivery speed, software quality, organizational effectiveness, and business outcomes.

Dr. Nea K-Williams is a keynote speaker, innovation management consultant, and founder of inno.c.t. and ENNEA AI.
She works at the intersection of innovation, leadership, change management, AI, and the future of work, with a particular focus on the human conditions that allow people and organizations to stay creative, courageous, and capable of transformation.

With a background in radio and television, communication, and the professional stage, Nea brings a rare combination of academic depth, practical experience, and engaging stage presence. She translates complex research and technological shifts into clear, lively, and entertaining impulses that help organizations understand what innovation really requires beyond buzzwords, tools, and transformation theater.

In her doctoral research, she explored the inner motives that drive people toward innovative work behavior and the organizational climate factors that either enable or block innovation. Today, she connects this research with current questions around AI, change, leadership, and the often overlooked role of women in innovation, past, present, and future.

In her talks, Nea shows how leaders can create environments in which teams think boldly, experiment with new ideas, and remain effective in working worlds shaped by AI and constant change. Her keynotes combine research based insights with real world anecdotes, interactive moments, sharp observations, and humorous video impulses, making complex topics not only understandable, but memorable.

I solve the $2M problems that happen when brilliant technology meets confused humans.

Over the past decade, I've built AI platforms that generate $5M ARR, transformed failing products into 340% growth stories, and led 50,000+ user migrations with zero downtime. But here's what I've really learned: the biggest technology challenges aren't technical at all. They're psychological.

With my Master's in Social Data Science from Oxford, I've spent my career at the intersection where human behavior meets enterprise technology. I've worked across healthcare, finance, and global consulting at Accenture, consistently discovering that the same patterns emerge everywhere: smart people make predictable, irrational decisions about technology adoption.
I'm the product leader who gets called in when expensive AI implementations sit unused, when teams resist change despite obvious benefits, or when leadership needs someone who can translate between C-suite vision and developer reality. My "human first AI" framework is now adopted by 3 Fortune 500 companies because it works with human psychology rather than against it.
My superpower is turning complex technological chaos into revenue generating clarity. I've reduced patient wait times from 48 hours to 4 hours, cut compliance review time by 87%, and helped teams embrace AI tools they initially feared. I understand both the technical possibilities (Python, TensorFlow, cloud architecture) and the human realities (cognitive bias, change resistance, team dynamics) of making technology actually work.

Whether I'm speaking about AI manipulation psychology, the neuroscience of developer attention, or why brilliant teams make terrible technology decisions, I bring data driven insights combined with real world war stories from the trenches of enterprise transformation.
I
believe the future belongs to leaders who understand that every technology problem is fundamentally a people problem. And people problems are endlessly fascinating to solve.

Hi there !
For the past five years, I've been on a rewarding journey as an engineering manager—leading teams, learning continuously, and striving to make work just a little more human (and fun!).
Before stepping into management, I rolled up my sleeves as a 3D developer then a full stack engineer, building web and mobile experiences and solving bugs :)

Today, I have the joy (and sometimes the challenge!) of managing both a vibrant team of software engineers and a dynamic group of RPA engineers. My mission? To design reliable and scalable systems and to foster a culture where experimentation is encouraged and where everyone feels they’re in the right place.

People, communication patterns, and the ever-evolving world of work fascinate me. I’m especially intrigued by how AI will reshape our jobs.

At PayFit, I’m currently navigating our transition to Domain-Driven Design while experimenting with team topologies, the 360 impact on the organization business, people and tech wise is fascinating.

I believe in tackling technical debt gracefully and my goal is to do so while delivering business value and empowering teams to take ownership and make decisions.

More than happy to share my learnings and acquire new ideas on the way!
