IMD Business Case Cyber Security Procter Gamble - GEOFF J KERR Feb 9th 2024 LinkedIn Summa

IMD Feb 9th 2024


Insightful discussion yesterday as the guest lecturer at IMD with the global MBA students on the GNAM Global Network for Advanced Management program where we focused on digital resilience. We talked at length, cyber resiliency is more than just the technology stack, to be resilient we need to ensure we have our risk appetite clearly defined, a solid strategy in place (with a compelling business need), an organizational design and culture to support the implementation of the program and a robust governance structure. Not an easy task, however if we get it right, we can step change our cyber resiliency and ensure attacks don't turn into breaches!

P&G Global Alumni Conference : Washington DC Nov 2-5th 2023 > 400 Attendees

 3 days at the P&G Alumni Global Conference in Washington DC with 400+ Alumni, 5 P&G CEOs, corporate and startup CEOs, thought leaders and most importantly game changers!
This year the focus was to 'Meet the Moment' and lead the changes to address our global challenges.
We rightly included the hot topics of CYBER SECURITY and AI in the event with a main stage session, with the focus on how we as leaders need to leverage and optimize these technologies within our organizations and collectively work together to address concerns and see these fields as opportunities! Cyber Security was explained as a "competitive edge" if done right, instilling trust in our organizations and institutions and our stakeholders. Key to success is to engage 100% of our people in the needed transformations to effectively bring cyber security resiliency alive in our organizations and think strategically before you "buy the tech" this includes risk assessment (know your risk appetite!), organizational design, governance and how to measure success.

Attendee: "Working in the manufacturing industry myself and accompanying our cyber resilience team in IT and OT security initiatives from an IT procurement persepective, the lecture was a perfect fit. What I related to the most are 2 points. Firstly, the importance for a company of being able to motivate all the people working with the right tools and developing the right mindset to be more (cyber) resilient. And secondly, the relevance of the OT segment in relation to business continuity. I for sure got some good insights to discuss with our CISO!"
