FEATURED LEADERSHIP PROGRAMS
CYBER LEADERSHIP PROGRAM
Are you a cyber leader looking to advance your executive and leadership skills?
The Cyber Leadership Program is an advanced, executive level program for cyber leaders who want to develop their executive skills, c-suite stakeholder and Board engagement, and become a leading CISO. In addition to cyber resilience strategies and risk management, we will cover important leadership topics such as effective governance and oversight, communicating cyber strategy to the Board and senior executives, and engaging with stakeholders to get support and buy-in for your cyber resilience program.
EXECUTIVE CYBER RESILIENCE PROGRAM
Are you a business executive, corporate director, senior risk management professional or business owner involved in making crucial cybersecurity decisions, but find the subject too complicated?
The Executive Cyber Resilience program has been designed to help non-technical business leaders better understand cyber risk and how it impacts their organization. The short, intensive, and self-paced online program goes beyond traditional cybersecurity awareness programs. It will teach you the fundamentals of cyber resilience, equipping you with practical skills to exercise your cyber risk governance responsibilities.
CYBER STRATEGY AND TRANSFORMATION PROGRAM
Are you responsible for leading cyber security and cyber leadership in your organisation?
The Cyber Strategy and Transformation Program has been designed for technical cyber security professionals or IT leaders who want to get a more holistic understanding of cyber risk, and want to take a leadership role in helping their organizations becoming more cyber resilient.

DEVELOP ALL THE SKILLS YOU NEED TO BE A CYBER LEADER
Most cyber security courses or certifications teach technical skills. This creates cyber security specialists who don't always understand the big picture or have a very technical view of cyber risks and can’t communicate effectively with the Board, executive management or their business stakeholders – skills which are only developed through years of experience.
In addition to high impact cyber strategies, we teach you the full set of interconnected business skills you need to succeed as a cyber leader including:
GET CLARITY AND FOCUS
Sharply focus on the high value cyber strategies that deliver the greatest risk reduction.
We help you to cut through the noise...
Senior business executives find cyber security overly technical and complex. As a result, they often have limited direct engagement in or buy-in into the key decisions required to drive cyber resilience.
..with laser-focused high impact strategies
We help you cut through the complexity and steer away from conventional, one-size-fits all cyber security investment models to define high impact cyber strategies that prioritize your “crown jewels.”

CISOs are now closely involved in strategic decision making, including mapping product road maps, complying with a raft of regulations, ensuring the business securely embraces digital transformation while assuring the board, clients and investors that cyber capabilities are fit for purpose.
The old narrative that you focus on deterrent cyber controls doesn’t make sense any more. Most enterprises now concede that if a capable threat actor targets them, it will likely get in.
At the Cyber Leadership Institute, we are obsessed with helping aspiring CISOs realize and fulfil their dreams. We recognize, however, the gender imbalance within our industry.
I’m often asked by my fellow colleagues, 'what keeps me up at night?', to which I currently reply, 'an uncomfortable bed'. For those of you who have ever had significant home renovation, I know you will sympathize.
