Iconic Leadership in an AI-Driven World
At the forefront of tomorrow’s program is Iconic Leadership, the leadership philosophy behind HMG Strategy Founder and CEO Hunter Muller’s forthcoming seventh book, Iconic Leadership: Reimagining and Reinventing the Enterprise to Win in an AI-Driven World.
The summit will examine what it means to lead like a CEO of technology as AI, cybersecurity, data, workforce transformation and relentless disruption reshape the enterprise and raise expectations for today’s technology leaders.
“The rules of leadership have changed forever,” said Hunter Muller, Founder and CEO of HMG Strategy. “AI, cybersecurity, data and workforce transformation are redefining the enterprise and the role of the technology executive. Iconic leaders seize the AI advantage, reinvent their organizations and build the vision, resilience and trust required to win through relentless disruption.”
From Iconic Leadership to AI Innovation and Cyber Resilience
The executive panel “Iconic Leadership: How to Lead Like a CEO – Designing the Future Workforce” will examine how technology executives can prepare their organizations, operating models and workforces for an increasingly AI-driven future. The discussion will feature senior technology leaders from Children’s Hospital Colorado, Boeing, Shrieve and Johns Manville.
Another executive panel will explore how leaders are harnessing data, AI and strategic technologies to drive long-term business performance, featuring executives from United Launch Alliance, Apptio, an IBM Company, Sinch, SAP and Regions Bank, with Muller serving as moderator.
Cybersecurity will take center stage in “Security Innovation as a Strategic Differentiator,” featuring Craig Buesing, CISO at Gates Corporation; James Dasher, CISO at Jack in the Box; Lena Taylor, VP and CISO at Crocs; and Joe Austin, VP Global Solutions Architecture at Comcast Business. The discussion will explore how cybersecurity, identity and risk management can be transformed from defensive necessities into strategic business advantages.
Attendees will also participate in interactive executive roundtables addressing AI ethics and governance, workforce reskilling, cybersecurity, lessons learned from AI implementation and multigenerational workforce challenges, creating opportunities for candid peer-to-peer conversations and practical knowledge sharing.
