Boards are often advised to maintain a balanced mix of skills and subject matter expertise. The World Economic Forum's latest Global Risks Report highlights cybersecurity and artificial intelligence risks prominently within the top ten concerns.

Given the inherent complexity of technology, both Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence present significant risks. This complexity necessitates that the governance and oversight of these risks be managed by seasoned governance professionals with deep cybersecurity and AI expertise. Additionally, crises related to cybersecurity, privacy, or AI are almost inevitable. Having a non-executive director or board advisor with battle-tested experience in cyber crises can be significantly advantageous.

As an experienced cybersecurity executive, I am well-positioned to offer my assistance.

However, boards require a broader skillset beyond just cybersecurity. My MBA, along with training in negotiations, leadership, and board governance, ensures a solid theoretical foundation. My leadership experience in multinational organizations extends beyond cybersecurity to encompass areas such as financial oversight, growth strategies, and mergers and acquisitions, effectively translating theory into practice in real-world situations. Furthermore, my exceptional crisis management skills, demonstrated through major incidents with minimal impact, would be a valuable asset to any board.

Organizations, such as a California-based third-party risk management company and an Israel-based cybersecurity startup, have found collaborating with me to be valuable. Your organization might benefit similarly.
