Abstract

Most information security officers in higher education are very skilled technically, but few understand how to bring about organizational change, particularly given the culture and traditions of academia. The ability to exert influence—through negotiation, persuasion, advocacy, and communication (including listening)—is indispensable in achieving security goals, many of which revolve around changing the assumptions, behavior, culture, and processes of organizations and people. Learn insights from a recent recipient of the Women of Influence award on how to effectively change the future state of information security at colleges and universities.
