Welcome to Brass Tacks - Talking Cybersecurity, the latest Fortinet podcast series where we discuss the business implications of cybersecurity. In this predominantly business-focused episode of Brass Tacks - Talking Cybersecurity, our host, Joe Robertson, talks to Mark Child, Associate Research Director for European Security at IDC, about the elevation of cybersecurity as a board-level priority and the various trends that are driving this. Together they discuss the evolving reputational capital of the CISO and their role in translating cyber risk into business risk in terms that board-level executives can understand. With reference to high-profile examples where failures to adequately assess such risk led to catastrophic reputational, operational and strategic costs - in some cases running to hundreds of millions of dollars - the discussion then turns to some of the proven strategies used by today's leaders to properly quantify risk as a holistic whole across all environments within the organization.

The world's most famous ultra-distance race, KZN's Comrades Marathon, is hosting an acrimonious battle between runners and the race's board of directors who are accused of industrial-scale corruption. The catalyst was an allegedly unfair dismissal of admired race manager Ann Ashworth after she exposed blatant skimming by board members of cash meant to be invested in sports development. A special general meeting will be held in Pietermaritzburg this week with its instigators intending to oust two of four board members accused of lining their own pockets. Comrades veteran and blogger Stuart Mann shared the story with BizNews editor Alec Hogg.

In an interview episode, I talk to Zoe Cohen, a highly experienced board-level director and Master Coach. We talk about the importance of taking action to save the planet, climate communications, her activism and work with Extinction Rebellion, Insulate Britain and Just Stop Oil. This episode was recorded before the recent UK General Election and *WARNING* it does contain some swearing. Learn more about me and my services @CWE Communications Thanks to my editor Callums World. Zoe has kindly provided some links and reading materials for us as well. Climate Psychology Alliance (CPA) and support – it's really important for those of who feel this deeply to not be on our own with it, and to seek support, see https://www.climatepsychologyalliance.org/index.php/find-support   Planetary Boundaries – I described how 6 of the 9 ‘planetary boundaries' have been identified as broken/passed – here is the framework behind that, developed by Professor Johan Rockstrom and colleagues -https://www.stockholmresilience.org/research/planetary-boundaries.html (there's a Netflix movie on it too, with David Attenborough if people prefer, but of course it's less blunt than it needs to be)   The ‘Humanity Project' - https://humanityproject.uk/ - I talked about the project here in the UK to upgrade democracy, through local community assemblies, and a new grass roots national people's assembly – by the people for the people    And just to add – deliberative democracy and citizens assemblies can be global as well as local and national. A Global Assembly was run in 2021  https://globalassembly.org/ with 100 ordinary people from all over the world. Now a coalition of organizations, individuals and governments are working to establish a permanent Global Citizens' Assembly, to address humanity's greatest challenges, and try to place citizens at the heart of global governance. See  https://www.gcacoalition.org/   ‘Breaking Together' – I recommend this book by Professor Jem Bendell. It is a critical and multidisciplinary in-depth view of our current predicament, and some of the potential responses to it. Jem's blog is here and includes a page on the book with a free e-read version - https://jembendell.com/2023/04/08/breaking-together-a-freedom-loving-response-to-collapse/   The 'Great Simplification' -  If people aren't already familiar with it, this as Nate Hagen's podcast and YouTube series -https://www.thegreatsimplification.com/ - also a good source of multidisciplinary, big picture perspectives on our human predicament, whilst I don't necessarily agree with all the perspectives represented, it's still a good source.   ‘Defend Our Juries' - https://defendourjuries.org/ this is an important campaign which began last year to defend all UK citizens rights to a fair jury trial. Jurors have an absolute right to acquit a defendant according to their conscience – but this is under attack in multiple ways and must be defended.   ‘This is Rigged' - https://www.thisisrigged.org/ - This is a great youth-led, campaign in Scotland, which is taking nonviolent action to pressure the government on food justice to ensure everyone can eat and no one goes hungry

Eleanor generously shares her personal strategies for preparing for public speaking engagements, offering insights into how she ensures comfort and confidence in these high-pressure situations.

This transformation involved assembling a high-quality team and pushing against opposition to lead the brand into the e-commerce space.2.    Transition to Retail Career: Jeanne's journey into retail wasn't initially planned. She had intended to enter the consumer packaged goods industry but was convinced by someone in the retail sector, Frank Arnone, to explore a career in retail. This encounter shifted her trajectory, leading her to successful roles at various retail companies.3.    Learning and Leadership Development: Jeanne attributes her leadership skills to lifelong learning and accumulating experiences. From her early exposure to extemporaneous speaking in high school to her experiences in business school, including the Harvard Business School method's case study approach, she developed the ability to assimilate data quickly and make decisions convincingly.4.    Selecting Board Positions: Jeanne shares her approach to selecting board positions, emphasizing a deep understanding and passion for the brand. She believes in contributing meaningfully to the boards she joins, bringing strategic thinking, leadership, and a clear path to impact. She emphasizes the importance of diversity in the boardroom.5.    Career Highlights at Banana Republic and Nike: Jeanne expresses pride in her work at Banana Republic and Nike. At Banana Republic, she played a crucial role in turning the brand into a significant player within the Gap portfolio and was an early advocate for embracing e-commerce. Her time at Nike involved joining the company's board and later leading the direct-to-consumer business, significantly impacting the company's trajectoryin that space.6.    Consumer Focus from Disney: Jeanne Jackson highlights the importance of consumer focus, a core competency she developed during her time at Disney. The strategic work at Disney emphasized understanding how consumers felt about the brand, their interactions, and motivations. This consumer-centric approach became foundational in her subsequent roles at companies like Victoria's Secret, Banana Republic, and Nike.7.    E-commerce Motivation: Jeanne Jackson explains the motivation behind embracing e-commerce during her time at Nike. She observed the high consumer demand in San Francisco, attributed to the availability of broadband. Recognizing that consumers would want to buy products online, the decision was made to meet consumers where they were and be ready for a broader audience as broadband adoption increased nationwide.8.    Technology as a Base Level: According to Jackson, technology is a crucial aspect of any business strategy, especially in the realm of e-commerce. She emphasizes that technology is a baseline requirement for running a successful e-commerce business, covering aspects like quick checkout, easy navigation, and efficient inventory management.9.    AI in Retail: Jeanne Jackson acknowledges the significance of artificial intelligence (AI) in retail. She anticipates that AI will bring another level of capability to the retail industry, and those who neglect its integration may miss out on valuable opportunities. The discussion also touches on the potential impact of AI on job roles, with Jackson suggesting that while some roles may be replaced, there could be opportunities for higher efficiency and smarter use of human resources.10. Evolution of Retail: The conversation delves into the evolving landscape of retail, with a focus on digitally native brands. Jackson expresses excitement about these brands that have captured consumer attention, especially those that emerged or gained momentum during the pandemic. The discussion highlights the changing strategies of brands, including considerations of omni-channel approaches and the exploration of various channels to reach customers, even mentioning the challenges and uncertainties associated with selling on platforms like Amazon.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Brenden Kumarasamy, founder of Master Talk, a platform dedicated to nurturing top tier communicators in diverse industries. Breneden has honed his craft coaching executives and entrepreneurs helping them ascend into the top 1% of communicators in their fields.Brenden also runs the popular Master Talk YouTube channel where he has democratised access to his communication tools.In this episode we dissect Brenden's journey, his philosophies, the art and science of effective communication, and his vision to transform the way we communicate. KEY TAKEAWAYS My journey started in college where I studied accounting where I created presentations around numbers. Somebody told me that if I wanted to work for one of the big four accounting firms, I needed to participate in these things called ‘case competitions' which are essentially competitive presentations where you present in front of executives and the best people get jobs. I started coaching the other students on how to communicate (mostly for free) to help them win competitions and I accidentally developed a gift for how to speak. While working for IBM I was making videos for fun in my basement, just as a hobby. But that hobby turned into something a lot bigger than I initially thought it was going to. After two and a half years I made the difficult decision to quit my job and do Master Talk full-time.  YouTube is the hardest one out of all the platforms to grow, but it's also the most beneficial one if you stay in it the longest. The 5/20 rule: If I post 1 really good piece of content that's long form every week for the next 10 years I'll be successful on YouTube. I've already written all my content for 2024 that I'll film with my production team in the next 3 months. That's how forward thinking I think about the brand. Never miss a week. There are parts of education, consulting, helping other people transform industries that AI will make better. For example, search queries, so I might not need as many people on a research team. But what AI cannot automate is education. No one is going to spend $2,000 to fly out to a conference to watch an AI speak, the human is really important in this situation. BEST MOMENTS‘I did not want to be an entrepreneur, I wanted to be an executive. '‘A big mistake a lot of content creators make is when they think about personal branding, they focus a lot on what's hot: Linkedin, Tik Tok, etc. I always thought about my personal brand in decades not days. Who do I want to be in 10 years?'‘People focus way too much on having 1000 followers, not 1000 conversations. If I do 10,000 podcast interviews, it's impossible for me to not have 100,000 followers. Luckily, I didn't need to do 10,000, it took 500.'‘If you 10 years from now had the chance to look back at your life right now, what would they disagree with you on? Oftentimes it's not information, it's implementation that's missing.' ABOUT THE GUESTBrenden Kumarasamy: It all begins with impact. Despite all the presentations I've given over my life, I still remember to this day how scared I was to post my first YouTube video. I didn't look like anything in my workshops or presentations, but I went ahead with this project for one reason: Impact. A wise friend once told me that I couldn't possibly coach every human being on Earth with the limited time I had in my life, so I needed to go on video to share my message with the world.

In this episode of B2B Marketing: The Provocative Truth, Benedict sits down with Nandik Barbhaiya to discuss how to get the board on board with brand.It's fair to say that most marketers understand the intrinsic value of brand-building. Even if they are not prioritising it for their business, marketers know how building a strong brand helps the business longer-term. However, it can often be difficult for marketers, and even the CMO to articulate that importance to the board, especially if there's no clear way to trace brand to revenue. So what is the case that marketing can make?Nandik Barbhaiya is the MD and Founder of Mr. Brand Genie, and he is an accomplished marketer with 17+ years of experience. Nandik's most recent role was as Interim CMO for the &me Investing App at Moneyfarm, but he has held several senior marketing roles throughout his career.

In this episode of B2B Marketing: The Provocative Truth, Benedict speaks to Leeya Hendricks about giving marketing a role at board level.Marketers are expected to do it all without the recognition. As provocative as it sounds, marketing for a while has felt that the board of their respective companies doesn't respect what they do. While studies have shown that the C-suite relies on the CMO, they simultaneously do not consider marketing a strategic partner in the business. How can marketing change this culture and evolve to better show its irreplaceable value?Leeya Hendricks is the CMO for both Delta Capita and Prytek, and she has 15+ years of experience as a senior marketer. Prior to Delta Capita and Prytek, she served as the VP, Global Marketing at Kurtosys Cloud Solutions, and before that, Senior Marketing Director, Europe at Gartner. She has additional experience at companies such as Oracle, Accenture, IBM, BCX, and more. Additionally, Leeya works as a visiting lecturer at the University of Westminster and an official member and contributing author for the Forbes Communications Council. She also has experience as an awards judge for The Drum, the B2B Marketing Awards, and the Women in Marketing CIC Awards.You can find Leeya Hendricks on Linkedin.You can watch full video versions of the podcast on our YouTube channel.Ready to provoke the truth?

Let's talk about benchmarks. Better known as KPI's. These are the 10 or so metrics that will be used to track progress. We also talk about how to talk strategy to team members so they can execute on the HOW. STEP 1 THE LANGUAGE FOR SHARING STRATEGY WITH OPERATIONSCOMMUNICATE GOALS AND MEASURES to your team leaders and/or team membersTURN STRATEGY INTO TARGETS. You want to set the goals that convert the strategic objectives into specific performance targets.THINK BIG PICTURE IMPROVEMENTS.  Strategies help the business improve the way it operates and set new goals, as opposed to goals that simply improve or fix what the company is already doing.WHAT IS AN EFFECTIVE GOAL. It states the what, when, how, and who. They are SPECIFICALLY measurable.SHORT TERM ACTION ITEMS. They should address what you need to do in the short term (1-2 years) to achieve your strategic objectives.WHAT IS A RESULTS STATEMENT? These are outcome statements expressing a result expected in the organization. They are issued annually. They are specific, measurable, attainable, responsible and time bound. STEP 2 SELECT THE RIGHT KPI'sWHAT IS A KPI Metrics that track and measure an organization's progress toward its strategic objectives. KPIs tell a story about how well a company is performing.INDUSTRY KPI As a Senior Executive at Macy's, when working at the individual store level, each of the departments had their % increase in sales measured against the following: the store's performance. The region's performance. The corporate's performance. The Goal…always to outperform any of the above metrics.KPI= BETTER DECISIONS   Leverage these metrics to pivot.KPI= ARE OBJECTIVES BEING MET? A KPI measures a company's performance against its primary objectives. High-level KPIs focus on a company's overall performance, while lower-level KPIs focus on departmental processes, products, and productivity.10 KPIS are sufficientKINDS OF KPIS. Revenue and net profit margin.Customers- satisfaction or customer churn.Operations- time to market and average order fulfillment.Talent Management metrics- workforce retention and turnover.Leading-predict what may happen in the future.Lagging-reflect past results, measuring the aftermath of actions.STEP 3 THE LANGUAGE FOR SHARING STRATEGY WITH TEAM MEMBERSLay out the short-term goals organizational goals and measuresSelect the top 5-10 KPIs that will be used to manage the performanceUse your SWOT Analysis to Set Priorities and create tractionEvaluate the options you have prioritized and identify the ones that create the greatest benefit and to best achieve the mission and vision of your organization.STEP 4 Define the Long-Term Strategic Objectives                                            Create Annual Milestones. ...Create a Year One Operational Plan. ...Monitor Regularly at Board Level. ...Adjust Accordingly.EXAMPLE: Amazon's primary goal: link the digital and brick-and-mortar shopping experience in order to be part of every single purchase made.A short-term strategy includes a detailed action plan: what  platforms will the marketing appear (TV, radio, print, social media). Who will carry out the strategies,  budget, profit, etc

Dato Razlan Razali is living his childhood dream from running Sepang International Circuit (SIC) for over a decade, hosting F1 and MotoGP races and turning the loss-making facility into a sustainable business to turning his passion for motorcycling into being the Team Principal of the Petronas Yamaha Sepang Race Team which is taking MotoGP by storm the last two seasons and is on the verge of winning the Championship.  Listen, learn and be inspired by his stories on how to build a successful Racetrack and how those learnings helped him to create a very successful MotoGP racing team.      Key Highlights His career start, selling his first company, starting a concert company with his brother and his first job interview for the CEO role of Sepang International Circuit (SIC) which didn't go so well. Persistency paid off and he became the CEO of SIC in 2008, few weeks before the MotoGP race. Early days at SIC, he inherited a mess and had a culture shock,  rolled up his sleeve and started to make changes. Starting to charge for everything in and around the track to generate new revenues.  More professionalism and commercialization was the key. Turn SIC into a multi facet venue -  “a ballroom under the sky”. Hosting Formula 1 at SIC stories, his first meeting with Bernie Ecclestone, again didn't go so well…… 2009 the first F1 race under his leadership, made changes, focus on what's best for SIC and Malaysia and disregarding F1 and the arrogance of F1 teams. Till the end, it was never a happy marriage with F1, race became jaded, nothing new and was eventually dropped. MotoGP was the opposite, Dorna's Carmelo Ezpeleta was open to all his ideas and wanted to do more, the growth and success of the race since then is proof. Very vocal when F1 race was dropped,  “even given for free, Malaysia would not host F1 race”,  Reuters headline worldwide. Revealing the fee SIC paid to F1 and the reasons why the Prime Minister of Malaysia asked him to get out. MotoGP success stories, how it all started, creating local heroes by starting a young rider search, academy and having wild card riders in Moto3 (125cc category). Created the first SIC Moto3 team in 2015,  challenge taking riders from “Kapcai” racing on the streets of Malaysia to a full fledge racing machine in Europe (money, motivation and mindset). Lots of talented local riders in terms of skill but most lacking mental strength. First Season in MotoGP in 2019 – lady luck played a role – stories of how it all started – his childhood dream came true. Petronas played a key role in taking over a financially struggling MotoGP team. How he found “Fabio” (Quartararo) – stroke of luck and how he came out blazing from the start and winning “Rookie of the Year” award, first podium till leading standing now. His thoughts on winning the MotoGP Championship this year – original target was to just win the “first” race  (which they did with the first & second race of the season). Superhumans – stories of his riders dealing with crashes. Valentino Rossi – the Doctor is joining the team in 2021 – the story behind it (and Fabio leaving to Yamaha Factory team). MotoGP “bubble”, how it's working, SOPs, rules, regulations and restrictions – importance of team talks. His prediction for the Championship with four races to go. His final thoughts on the future of Motorsports after Covid – difference between F1 and MotoGP.   About Dato Razlan Razali is a dynamic and highly successful Senior Executive with extensive high-level successes across a wide variety of industries, including world-class event management. First-class leadership skills with excellent marketing and sponsorship development experience in both national and international arenas. Consistently aims for the highest standards on a personal and corporate level. Proven ability to generate innovative growth strategies for successful and profitable companies.
