Calm in the Chaos: CXO Secrets Reunion Special

In this special reunion episode of CXO Secrets, we bring back three standout leaders from across the series – Hammond Reddie, Anaïs Beaucousin, and Martin Covill – to reflect on what’s changed, what’s challenged them, and what leadership really looks like in today’s high-pressure environment.

From rising cyber threats and third-party risk to “panic as a service” and crisis decision-making, this episode dives into the realities of navigating uncertainty at the highest level. Our guests share hard-earned lessons on leading through ambiguity, building resilient security cultures, balancing legacy systems with innovation, and staying calm when it matters most.

Plus, as always, each guest passes a question to the next—uncovering fresh insights into trust, communication, and the human side of cyber leadership.

If you want to understand how today’s CXOs are adapting, responding, and preparing for what’s next, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
