Meet the Keynote Speakers
As cyber threats continue to escalate, organizations need leaders who can navigate risk beyond the technology function. This keynote examines why the organizations that recover most successfully from cyber incidents are not necessarily those with the strongest technology, but those with the strongest business resilience.
Through real-world examples and practical lessons, attendees will learn how executive leadership, cross-functional collaboration, and strategic decision-making can transform cyber preparedness into organizational resilience.
The session also explores why women leaders are uniquely positioned to drive this shift and how they can leverage their strengths to influence enterprise-wide risk management, crisis response, and organizational strategy.
Disruption is the new normal. Unpredictable situations have forced organizations to rapidly adapt to new realities. Teams are now faced with new challenges around productivity, technological capabilities, communications, crisis management, mental health and more.
What can critical situations and extreme environments teach us about adaptability in times of uncertainty? What can we learn from our successes and our failures in this journey?
From simulated space missions underwater, to commanding a simulated Mars mission, to her work as a physician during COVID, Dr. Pandya draws on a unique mix of experiences to show audiences how to thrive in times of uncertainty. She shares key skills when it comes to cultivating resilience, setting goals, and optimizing performance – as an individual, and as a team.
Audiences will embark upon a riveting online journey into the upsides of isolation, and how these lessons will help us stay productive during extreme situations. Shawna Pandya helps audiences go from isolated to inspired, and walk away with insights that they can apply to their daily operations.
