What does patriotism mean in a cyber context — and how should leaders balance mission, judgment, and profit in a rapidly changing world?
In this episode of Wired for Change, host Amy Yee is joined by George Al-Koura — CISO, former Canadian Armed Forces Signals Intelligence Specialist, and co-host of Bare Knuckles and Brass Tacks.
This reflective conversation goes beyond tools and trends to explore cyber leadership as a values-driven practice. Amy and George discuss patriotism over profit, the real constraints leaders face, trust and intuition as decision-making skills, and how to navigate responsibility in an era shaped by AI, misinformation, and geopolitical tension.
They also touch on ethical data use, entrepreneurship, and what it means to choose the path ahead — personally, professionally, and nationally.
A thoughtful end-of-year episode for leaders in cybersecurity, technology, public service, and beyond.
