Creating Presentations and Training That Engage an Audience – Lina Lau – ASW #257
Communication is a skill that doesn't appear on top 10 lists, rarely appears as a conference topic, and doesn't appear enough on job requirements. Yet communication is one of the critical ways that security teams influence developers, convey risk, and share knowledge with others. Even our own Security Weekly site falls a little short with only a podcast category for "Training" instead of more options around communication and collaboration.
Lina shares her experience presenting to executives and boards in high-stress situations, as well as training incident responders on real-world scenarios.
