Webinar | Cyber leadership

Written by Dr Ruth Massie | 31/03/20 15:45

Thinking beyond ‘Bits and Bytes’ and into economic value. Much of the historic narrative on cyber has been about the negative impact, protectionism and the related costs. In this session, we will explore cyber as a pan-organisational, value-adding activity, which requires a strong leadership focus.

It is easy to say that leaders should be cyber-aware and should be engaging with cyber-related decision making across the organisation. However, given the complexity of the issue, the rate of change, and the wide range of ‘solutions’ presented, how can a leader make the right decisions for their organisation?

This webinar discusses the divide in organisations between digital, cyber and organisational strategies, the subsequent negative consequences and how as a leader you can make the right decisions for your organisation.

Dr Ruth Massie, Senior Lecturer in Cyber Resilience Leadership at Cranfield School of Management, led the discussion on cyber leadership in this interactive webinar.
