We’re launching something new: the CIOsurge Podcast. Same idea as this newsletter, real conversations with the CIOs and CISOs doing the work, now in audio and video.
Episode 1 is live with Tim Youngblood. Tim has led security at Dell, Kimberly-Clark, McDonald’s and T-Mobile, and has spent more than ten years helping pick and grow security startups.
We talk about:
Running Shark Tank-style startup pitches inside big companies
Meeting Wiz when it was a two-person company
Why identity is the next big wave as AI agents take hold
Talking to boards in business terms, and why more CISOs are moving into top tech roles
Tim’s advice: get out of your comfort zone and go where the CFOs, CEOs and investors are.
Follow the show on your favorite app so you don’t miss the next episode.
Talk soon,
Zack
