Influencing the board
Influencing the board
What are some of the most effective methods of gaining a board’s support, and how do you maintain this trust and improve it over time?
Our guest today has worked with a lot of boards, and joins us to share his experiences providing boards with the tools to ask the right questions when it comes to cybersecurity, and conveying to them why cybersecurity is important for their organisation.
Roger Ison-Haug has worked in IT for close to 30 years and is now working as the CISO & DPO at the data science and weather intelligence provider StormGeo. He is also currently working on his PhD in cybersecurity and leadership.
Roger and Robby discuss the most common challenges that boards experience, and what kind of questions they usually ask. They also talk about what it’s actually like being a board member, Roger’s best advice to security people wanting to influence a board, and what kind of questions security people usually aren’t very good at answering – but should be.
