Overview
As 2020 comes to a close, we can choose how we reflect on the challenges of the past year and their influence on 2021. How do you characterize 2020? Was it a blessing in disguise or a curse? Was it an answer or a question? Will you enter 2021 in a state of burnout and despair, or was 2020 a gift to us whose potential and benefits are to be revealed? This session will talk about the power of perspective-taking and mindset for security professionals to avoid the burnout that is plaguing the industry and how we can use it to create the kind of career and life we desire in 2021.
