223: Visionary Leadership in Cybersecurity and Government Contracting: A Conversation with Jonathan Hard

Govcon Giants

In today's episode, we have Jonathan Hard, and we delve deep into his entrepreneurial spirit, which is characterized by relentless drive, determination, and a commitment to delivering top-notch results. Listen now as we explore various facets of running a cybersecurity firm, from navigating stringent barriers like CMMC and facilities clearance to expanding into global markets, evidenced by their recent moves in Kenya with Mac Three Defense.

Jonathan also shares his approach to building a robust team, emphasizing that anyone can be an auditor, and how H2L has cultivated a workforce that includes both veterans and newcomers alike, all united under a philosophy of continuous learning and adaptation. We also touch on the critical aspects of getting and managing government contracts, from those initial audits to the complex compliance demands, and how H2L has been indispensable to their clients. Jonathan's insights into the nuances of government contracting, particularly his strategies for overcoming initial barriers and his proactive approach to client engagement, will be invaluable for anyone looking to make their mark in the industry.

One of the things I love about Jonathan is that he shows you a different way to approach growing your business. I know that so often, small businesses that I speak with, coach, and mentor talk about building RFPs and RFQs. Jonathan has a different approach to how he started and built past performance in this space.

Join us today as Jonathan reveals the keys to his sustained success, his vision for the future of cybersecurity and government contracting, his prime contract of managing over 400 assessments, and his journey as a testament to what's possible with the right mix of grit, knowledge, and connections. Let's dive into Jonathan’s incredible journey and the lessons you've learned along the way. Our next GovCon Giant.
