In this episode of Unspoken Security (sponsored by ZeroFox), AJ Nash is joined by Lisa Ackerman, the Deputy Chief Information Security Officer for GSK (formerly known as GlaxoSmithKline, a British multinational pharmaceutical and biotechnology company. Lisa and AJ talk about the value of building Intelligence-driven security programs, particularly the vital aspect of impacting decision-making. They also both shared the complicated - perhaps unusual? - ways that career Intelligence professionals think and communicate about threats, risks, and preparedness.Perhaps most interestingly, Lisa shares how she not only took her skills from the Intelligence Community (IC) into the private sector to build threat intelligence programs based on the IC's best practices, but has become one of the very few Intelligence professionals to become a leader in the CISO career path.Having transitioned from being a provider of Intelligence to being more of the consumer (on the CISO side), Lisa talked about how her perspective has changed, how it hasn't, and who she thinks CISOs trust the most these days…the “CISO Whisperer” is.Finally, as always, the show wraps up with Lisa revealing something that had, to this point, gone "unspoken”...and Lisa delivered some great stories and insights about how having the guts to leap into challenging situations can be a key to growing a career.

When it comes to autism treatment, acceptance is not a strategy. Neither is guilt. A sense of community, however, can be a major asset for families with autism. In the last installment of this series with Lisa Ackerman, founder of TACA (Talk About Curing Autism), Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen talk with Lisa about what may be the biggest resource of all for those treating autism: other people. TACA provides an abundance of helpful resources for these families, such as putting them in touch with a local chapter for help in facing their special challenges.
When you see a kid with autism, you’ve seen ONE kid with autism. Unfortunately, autism is not one thing, and you can’t treat every brain the same. Fortunately, there are ways to scan the brain to determine the type of autism your child has, so you can treat them using appropriate methods. In part two of a series with Lisa Ackerman, founder of TACA (Talk About Curing Autism), hosts Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen discuss the role SPECT imaging plays in autism treatment.
There may be 100 ways to autism, but with the right strategy, there are just as many ways to make vast improvements in the life of your autistic child. In this episode of The Brain Warrior’s Way Podcast, Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen are joined by Lisa Ackerman, the founder of TACA (Talk About Curing Autism). Lisa shares stories of her personal journey in finding avenues for positive change for her autistic son, Jeff.
Welcome back to another episode of the TACA podcast! We loved having the opportunity to sit with Lisa and hear the early stories about TACA when it was merely a dream in her heart, and maybe a last ditch effort to gather like-minded parents who were ready to fight for their kids. Lisa also shared with us some practical tools for when you are just getting started in your autism journey and some encouraging advice for when you think you might have hit your last wall.
Lisa Ackerman from TACA and Dr. Linda Copeland!
