Bellevue, WA (PRWEB) September 30, 2014 -- The Great Conversation in Security, the signature forum for risk, resilience, and security leaders, announced its agenda and speakers for the October 27 and 28 event in Chantilly, Virginia at the Westfields Marriott.

“In a conference-weary industry, The Great Conversation stands out for delivering effective and practical guidance for current and emerging security leaders” said Tom Mahlik, Deputy CSO and Director, Global Security Services of the MITRE Corporation.

The Great Conversation answers the question: “What does it take to be a next generation security leader?” Thought leaders and leading practitioners convene to share their best practices, core leadership principles, and the proven solutions that are changing the way security is managed and measured.

“The Great Conversation will focus on the rapid escalation of all-hazards risk, value articulation for its stakeholders, and the enabling technology that provisions next generation security programs” said Ron Worman, Managing Director of The Sage Group.

The Great Conversation will feature the Security Executive Council’s (SEC) premier leadership executive training forum, The Next Generation Security Leader™ (NGSL) Program, on October 27. “Our industry requires a new framework for relevantly delivering value to our organizations,” said Francis D’Addario, former CSO, Starbucks. “The Next Generation Security Leader program delivers on this promise.”

The forum is driven by 18 CSO-level faculty including but not limited to, Francis D’Addario, Bob Hayes, former CSO, Georgia Pacific, George Campbell, former CSO, Fidelity Investments and Dean Correia, former Director of Corporate Security, Wal-Mart Canada.

CSO-level speakers from organizations like Delta Airlines, Dell Computer, Sony Pictures Entertainment, The Boeing Company and RTI International will share their experiences leading innovation and change within their organizations while implementing next generation programs.

The Great Conversation in Security forum and community has a 10 year track record of delivering a path to value for risk, resilience, and security executive leaders who are challenged by decreasing budgets, lack of security metrics to justify their value, limited bandwidth to deploy, and increasing global risk.

Besides an executive level curriculum on day one, day two promises vetted case studies and engaging key note presentations. This will include critical trends that will impact the future of security programs, a prescription for delivering value during and after "an event," and a CSO-led table top exercise that simulates the road mapping and planning process with and through a partner and vendor ecosystem.

National Integrators, Kratos Public Safety & Security Solutions (Kratos PSS) and Aronson Security Group (ASG) will act as hosts of the forum to the security leaders, consultants, integrators, and technology vendors that compose The Great Conversation.

“Kratos has personally seen the value of a Great Conversation to security executives,” said Ben Goodwin, President of Kratos PSS. “We have seen the thought leaders in the industry convene and have serious conversations about how our market is changing and what practices and technology will need to be deployed to meet the challenges ahead. We are pleased to lend our hand and our voice to this premier leadership forum.”

“Aronson Security Group has always believed in leadership, change, and innovation,” said Phil Aronson, President of ASG. “We want to be seen as an advocate for positive steps that add value to our industry. We have seen how the conversations started at this forum have encouraged new ideas, new coalitions, and transformed change in security executive programs.”
