SPI IQ Workshop

Build Strategic Performance Intelligence for Cybersecurity Leadership

See the System. Lead What’s Next.

This SPI IQ Workshop helps CISOs, CIOs, and executive teams confront the hidden sources of drag, misalignment, and dysfunction that stall security programs—so you can build smarter systems and lead with confidence.

Using the SPI 360 framework and field-tested methods from The CISO On The Razor’s Edge, this live session equips leaders to:

  • Make better decisions in fast-moving, high-risk environments
  • Break down silos across IT, security, and business leadership
  • Spot entropy—cultural and organizational drift—before it kills momentum
  • Align execution with real strategy, not just boardroom slides
  • Build a culture of shared ownership and psychological safety
  • Track what actually matters using leadership-ready SPI metrics
  • Regain traction, trust, and time

You’ll walk away with practical clarity, leadership-ready language, and a personalized roadmap to apply what you’ve learned—immediately.
