Cyberleadership Program
This eight-week CyberLeadership program from the CyberLeadership Institute guides experienced security professionals to operate at executive level, ending with a practical board‑facing capstone project that simulates the presentation of a 2-year plan by an incoming CISO to the board. Each week focuses on a distinct leadership domain, and includes practical action items and templates to be incorporated into the capstone. The course offers 40 CPE towards renewing my CISSP.
Week 1 — The role of a CISO
Week 1 orients participants to the program and the cyber resilience mindset, and introduces the CISO role through lived experience and practical lessons. Participants explore the many variants of the CISO position, clarify their ideal role, and begin building a personal brand and interview readiness. The week covers essential first‑100‑day priorities, ways to engage the C‑suite, and personal resilience practices.
