Check out this post for the discussion that is the basis of our conversation on this week’s episode co-hosted by me, David Spark (@dspark), the producer of CISO Series, and Geoff Belknap (@geoffbelknap), CISO, LinkedIn. Joining me is our guest, Emily Heath, general partner, Cyberstarts.

In this episode:

• How do CISOs feel about sales pitches?

• Do they have legitimate complaints?

• When do these legitimate complaints cross the line to sounding entitled?

• Do CISOs need to show a little more empathy to sales?
