Cybersecurity has evolved from lone wolves duking it out in sparse online forums to massively parallel cyber industrial complexes manned by nation states. As our attack surfaces shifted from individual servers to cloud infrastructures, from zero-day one-offs to massively sophisticated media ecologies, corporations became the sacrificial lambs.

The reason for this is people. Because the arms race between state actors has driven the speed and scale of cyberattacks to unprecedented new heights, increasingly the easiest way "in" is the soft squishy middle - the human element.

Come learn how evolving AI and analytical engines are producing insights into human manipulation at an incredible new level. Josh Klein walks you through the frightening - and myriad - ways in which corporations, countries, and common thieves are exploiting your very nature to change your behavior and steal your stuff.

Forewarned is forearmed - don't miss the chance to get ahead of potential attackers (and competitors) in using emerging technologies both defensively and ethically.

Audience takeaways:

The pandemic changed everything about work - except the potential impact of data in your organization. That's as big as it's ever been; it's only society that has changed in suddenly recognizing it.

As CEO of Indigometrics, Josh has been knee-deep in the role of data in measuring, managing, and enabling human potential from a technology perspective for nearly a decade.

The Great Resignation is just getting underway, meaning companies must move fast to get ahead of churn, to acquire the right talent, and to set a course for keeping both where they’re needed to succeed.

Come learn why, when, where and how data is driving new challenges and opportunities in privacy, churn, hiring, talent development... and what it means for the future of your organization.

The future of work hasn't seen such a big shift since the industrial revolution. But with the right mindset and a little careful planning, companies can be agile and secure in taking advantage of it!

Drawing on his personal experiences on the front lines of E-Commerce, Mobile, and Cloud Computing as they emerged, Josh Klein walks your audience through key identifiers of transformative tech.

Audience takeaways:

By providing a framework for spotting trends, identifying opportunities, and shaping strategy, listeners will emerge vastly better prepared to make astute choices around emerging technology going forward.

The pandemic compressed a decade's worth of technology adoption into one short year, and nowhere has that been felt more keenly than at work - or home, depending on what you call it. As white-collar workers discover the benefits and costs of working from home
the majority of businesses are trying to reconcile what will be needed to keep them employed, satisfied, and growing.

Moreover, the question still remains of how best to take advantage of the increased flexibility and reach a distributed workforce might represent.

Audience takeaways:

Join Josh as he surfaces examples of how different technologies have prompted adaptation in the past and how they compare with the changes we're working through today.

In creating a model for change, your listeners will be armed with a framework for forecasting, not just the threats, but also the opportunities unique to each organization.

Buying a startup, hiring hot talent, or licensing a new technology usually doesn’t do organizations any good - because they’re mishandled.

Learn how world-changing technologies like E-Commerce, Mobile, and Big Data were used correctly... and badly. Real-world examples from the front lines of transformative technologies show you the pitfalls to avoid along with how they can be managed by organizations at any stage to produce significant new growth.

Covid took the concept of talent and put it on overdrive, making top talent even harder to find or keep and bad apples impossible to remove. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Come learn what the rise of remote work, hybrid work, and changing expectations from truly innovative employees can mean for your organization, from exploiting synchronies in cross-compatible new currencies to aligning meaning and motivation.

The question is... how? From the gig economy to fully automated luxury capitalism, society is only just starting to respond to the tidal wave of disruption new technologies represent. Dig into the impact AI, Robotics, and Biologicals will have on your job and the work of your employees, and learn how to get ahead of the risk - and your competition - in maximizing the under-considered opportunities the shift to hyper-human skilling represents.

We know we’re more predictable than we suspect, but what does the scale and scope of data about us – as employees and consumers – mean for the evolution of business? Learn about the responsibilities this will entail, the risks of getting it wrong, and how to positively bring the impending era of hyper personalized modeling to bear on your existing (and future) markets

Distributed sensor networks (i.e., the IoT + AI) are changing how people live, what they buy, and how they relate. But nobody is closely examining what happens when you mix them together. This talk explores the two main sociopolitical directions that are taking off in exploiting the impossibly powerful mix of real-time, where-you-are algorithmic intelligence - and what it means for your business.
