Risk is necessary for innovation. In fact, there’s no escaping it if an organization wants to remain competitive and profitable. In today’s digital economy, the CISO plays a crucial role in not only determining what’s acceptable when it comes to risk on the technical side, but also communicating with stakeholders the importance of managing it from a business perspective.
On August 24th, Gary Hayslip, co-author of “CISO Desk Reference Guide Executive Primer” and Global CISO for SoftBank Investment Advisers & SoftBank Group International will be leading a brief discussion on the evolution of the CISO role and how to navigate some of the most common challenges they’re facing in the boardroom–and beyond.
