In this episode, I’ll break down the key lessons from my article:
👉Leading with Sound Judgment: 6 Questions for Cyber & Military Leaders (https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/leading-sound-judgment-6-questions-cyber-military-leaders-zinga-ly7qc)
 
 
As leaders in high-stakes environments—cybersecurity, national defense, and executive leadership—we’re often asked to make complex decisions with incomplete information. So how do we sharpen our judgment?
 
In this episode, I break down London Business School Professor Andrew Likierman’s 6-question framework for mastering sound decision-making. I’ll share real-life lessons from my journey as a cybersecurity executive and Information Warfare Commander in the U.S. Navy—from navigating cyber threats to leading military operations—and how these six questions have helped me and my teams choose wisely under pressure.
 
✅ We’ll explore questions like:
•Have I truly understood the information (including risks and timing)?
•Can I trust the people and the data?
•Are these the right options—and are they even practical?
 
🧭 Whether you’re leading a tech startup, a SOC, a naval fleet, or a boardroom conversation—good judgment is your most critical leadership tool.
 
🎧 Come learn, reflect, and engage.
