The program, which connects security executives to students at Mercyhurst, aims to benefit both young security professionals building their careers and executives looking for new talent.

Adding business value. Getting a seat at the table. Running security like a business. Aligning security with the organization. These are the contents of the Holy Grail of security leadership. Everybody talks about them. Everybody wants them. But most security leaders view them as the stuff of legend – great for motivation, but unattainable in reality.

The Security Executive Council is pleased to announce that Managing Director Bob Hayes will keynote the upcoming Great Conversation^™ event in Seattle.
