 A Day in the Life of a Leader - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: Jon Walton Title: Chief Information Officer, County of San Mateo, CA A leader isn’t born in a day but in a lifetime. A leader needs to grow and refine their craft and their influence day in and day out. So let’s take a deep look at everything it takes to make sure a leader is maximizing their potential and developing in the right way. What kind of qualities do we see on display? How do they build their reputation and respect among their team over time? How does a great leader keep that process from breaking down?

 Building the Workplace for Gen-Y - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: Greg Schwartz Title: Chief Information Officer and SVP Information Technology, USAA Guest: Heather Hernandez Title: Senior Research Engineer, USAA Guest: Ryan O’Leary Title: IT Technical Director, USAA For as much as the current generation loves to bash the 20-somethings entering into the workforce and assign clichés about their demeanor and work ethic, the reality is that this group will one day be the industry leaders and is currently among the group leading the charge of a digital revolution. So rather than thinking about what management practices will work best for “them” how can the current generation help pave the way for the future? If the value in the workplace to millennials is a better corporate environment, a reinvented virtual enterprise, BYOD policies and more flexibility on the whole, how are we modernizing to meet those expectations?

 Cloud Suitability and Transformation - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: George Surdu Title: Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer, Comerica In planning your application and infrastructure environment, an essential step is to determine their cloud suitability. How do you go about determining that? Since each application and infrastructure element may have its unique provisioning needs, how do you transform or modernize these elements to run on one cloud foundation? Can you plan all this upfront or have to play it by ear as you unearth the intricacies?

 Developing a Big Data Workforce - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: Doug Henschen Title: Executive Editor at InformationWeek Guest: Dr. Phil Shelley Title: Former CTO, Sears Holding Big Data has exploded as a field, and with it will come a massive flux of new openings within IT organizations. Half the battle is finding the right talent when to some extent these jobs and these skills don't even exist yet, but an equal challenge is in defining the various Big Data roles for your organization and industry given the broad variety of skills and competencies that maintaining Big Data will require. How exactly does a Big Data job differ from something related to "analytics," "statistics" or a "data scientist?" What approaches on the whole will help integrate Big Data hiring into regular IT staffing duties?

 Philanthropy and Technology Changing the World - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: William A. Brindley Title: Former Chief Executive Officer at NetHope, Special Advisor in the Social Sector Philanthropic organizations across the globe all have a single goal; we want to work together to make the world a better place. The cause could be ending world hunger, poverty, disease or lack of education, but the intention is the same. The trouble lies in organizing all of those different parties who can help contribute money, resources and services onto that one unified vision. So how are NGOs starting to think like businesses in order to compete, deliver expectations and quantifiable change such that they can see a difference? How is new technology helping to produce more transparency, agility and information sharing toward this end goal?

 Managing Security from the Inside Out - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: Kevin Novak Title: CISO & IT Risk Manager, Northern Trust Corporation Threats to your enterprise have as much chance to come from around the globe as they do across the hall. This much is obvious to the savvy CISO. Your organization may have governance policies in place along with proper education on privacy and security within your organization, but is it possible that investment dollars are not entirely going where they belong? To what extent are organizations overlooking internal security threats? What kind of internal threats are most concerning, be they malicious or unintentional? And where should CISOs be refocusing their efforts? Kevin Novak will be speaking today at the SC Congress in Chicago on the topic "Security, Privacy and Whistleblowing."

 Harnessing the Power of Digital Disruption - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: Karthik Swarnam Title: Chief Information Security Officer, Trans Union LLC Guest: Ricardo Lafosse Title: CISO, Cook County Government Guest: Sridhar Potineni Title: Director of Innovation, Jones Lang LaSalle Companies are just now getting wise to the threat and opportunity of Digital Disruption. The realization is that competitors and places to grab customer relationships can now be found across industries free of the channels that once limited such innovative thinking. So if you’re a Chief Innovation Officer trying to think on your feet and enable innovation across the organization, where do you begin to look for these new opportunities and sources of competitive advantage? How do we define a playbook of the questions to ask? How can CISOs help the organization avoid stifling this potential while keeping everything secure? This event was broadcast live from the CIO Reception as part of the BDPA Chicago Chapter at the Hotel Sax in Chicago, Illinois.  

 Flexible Leadership and Evolving Commitments - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: Dr. Barb Kunkel Title: Chief Information Officer, Troutman Sanders, LLP Guest: Professor Joseph L. Badaracco Jr. Title: John Shad Professor of Business Ethics at Harvard Business School The world in which we operate moves so quickly that it's ill-advised for a leader to devote an organization's undivided attention on one thing or one direction for too long. So in an effort to be nimble and flexible to changing conditions, a leader will make evolving commitments to many markets, funding or technology. But wouldn't doing so put added stress on people within the organization scrambling to meet all these diverse commitments? How does such decision making impact an organization? What are the pros and cons and how should a leader respond?

 Getting Past BYOD Security Concerns - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: Dan Lohrmann Title: CSO, Department of Technology, Management & Budget (DTMB), Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Protection, State of Michigan Guest: Elayne Starkey Title: CSO, Department of Technology and Information (DTI), Delaware Even in our modern workplace, we’re still having discussions about gaps in our BYOD security policies or that many companies don’t even have one in place. If you listen to many blogs or vendor white papers, employees are utilizing workarounds, executives are being careless and many organizations are still living in the stone age. Aren’t we just peddling fear at this point? What do we have to do to put these concerns behind us? How bad is the problem really, and what can we focus on so far that’s actually worked as a benchmark moving forward?

 Is Cloud Security Still an Issue? - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: Michael Nance Title: CISO, Cyber CTO, Lockheed Martin Senior Fellow Lockheed Martin Information Systems & Global Solutions (IS&GS)-Civil Cloud adoption has become ubiquitous across all enterprises, but many CISOs are still uneasy with cloud vendors and the different environments available when compared to their on-premise option. So the million dollar question is, is cloud security still an issue? Now that we're introducing Big Data and mobility into the mix of cloud security, what questions must be raised regarding the various public and private cloud options, and what mix of tools, governance, processes and vendor policies would it require so that our CISOs can do the needful and get some peace of mind?

 Turning a Manager Into a Leader - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: Kevin M. Larson Title: VP and Chief Information Officer, AAR Corp. Many qualities define an effective manager, and many people can do the job. But in a day and age where the expectation is not the productivity you can deliver but the value you can generate, those who will become the true leaders of an organization are the ones who can make a real impact. So how do you groom a tactician built on process and productivity into a strategist who lives and breathes ideas and innovation? What personal hurdles does that individual need to get over to reach that next phase of their career?

 Combating Retail Security Challenges - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: Deena M. Amato-McCoy Title: Research Analyst, Retail & Consumer Markets, The Aberdeen Group Guest: Richard C. Hollinger, Ph.D. Title: Professor, University of Florida in Gainesville, Chair and a tenured faculty member of the Department of Sociology and Criminology & Law As retailers aggressively grow and evolve to fight the threat of digital disruption, one equally prevalent threat is an actual security risk. Retailers need to be able to provide a secure customer experience in order to drive competitive advantage and differentiation, and that means protecting the organization at the store front and the back end. As new forms of payment, mobility and online touch points are being introduced, how are retail CISOs meeting compliance needs and securing the many wide reaching points of entry? How can data driven approaches from other sectors of the organization be used to bolster security efforts, and how conversely can security support retail's revenue-generating ventures?

 Cyber Espionage, APTs and Enterprises - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: Adam Hils Title: Research Directo Network Security, Gartner Guest: Michael P. Wilson Title: Vice President, Chief Information Security Officer, McKesson Guest: Roy Mellinger Title: VP and CISO, Wellpoint In today's security landscape, cases of cyber espionage and advanced persistent threats (APTs) have rendered many traditional cyber security practices and vendor software completely ineffective. Big Data has shown potential in providing deeper insights into these sophisticated attacks, but CISOs need to be able to be proactive, they need to understand the threats of APTs and their impact on the enterprise and they need to share that information among peers, the executive suite and the rest of the organization. So how can we allay some fears about the extent of these threats while also building an information pipeline designed to keep us vigilant?

 Preparing Your Company for Digital Disruption - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: James L. McQuivey, Ph.D. Title: Vice President, Principal Analyst, Forrester Guest: Naomi Fried, Ph.D. Title: Chief Innovation Officer, Boston Children’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School Guest: Richard Roth Title: Vice President. Strategic Innovation, Dignity Health The idea behind Digital Disruption is not just an ongoing threat to how business will operate but a mega-trend that will dictate the future of how business operates in virtually every industry. If digital disruption will affect not just communication and worker skills but also consumption, competition and plain market forces, how is the business evolving and making this disruption an opportunity? How will business model new corporate strategies that affect our cost structures and revenue streams? How is business managing the next generation of workers to make this disruption possible? How is business aligning with IT such that IT can help support this effort?

 Big Data on the Big Screen - Preview | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Guest: Colin Brown Title: Professor, Kanbar Graduate Institute of Film & Television, Tish School of the Arts, NYU; Editorial Director Slated The movie industry is at a crossroads. Record box office numbers are coming in with each summer blockbuster and the major Hollywood movie studios are posting stock market highs, but attendance is uncontrollably dropping as movie theaters lose audiences to television and on-demand streaming. Online services are seeing success using Big Data as a means to better understand their users. How can Big Data be used to help a movie reach an audience or change the way content is consumed? Can it also change the way the movies are made? If so, to what extent, if any, do we want technology impacting the art of the movies?
