This is the Leadership Journey series on the Choosing Leadership Podcast.
I believe we all have a lot to learn from each other's stories - of where we started, where we are now, and our successes and struggles on the way. With this series of interviews, my attempt is to give leaders an opportunity to share their stories and for all of us to learn from their generous sharing. If you know a leader whom you would like to see celebrated on the show, please send me a message on LinkedIn with their name.
In this episode, we dive deep with Dr. Ben Harrison, the founder and CEO of Loquerion Security, who shares his journey from a tech-obsessed child to a cybersecurity pioneer.
Ben's unique blend of people-first leadership and cutting-edge innovation offers fresh insights for anyone looking to navigate the complex world of tech and security.
You'll discover how his early experiences shaped his approach to building safe online environments and why continual improvement is at the heart of his leadership style.
Ben also opens up about the challenges he's facing as a leader and how he's actively working to overcome them.
Whether you're a seasoned leader or just starting out, this conversation is packed with practical wisdom and inspiration.
