Jennifer Leggio

I am a seasoned enterprise cybersecurity go-to-market professional with over 24 years under my belt. My career journey has been diverse, marked by a relentless seeker spirit that's led to success for many organizations, either as an executive or advisor. Renowned for my tenacity, advocacy for truth and ethics, strategic vision, and no-nonsense approach, I also prioritize calculated risks to disrupt the status quo and enhance diversity and inclusion in technology.

My specialties include ventures in build-to-exit, build-to-grow, and rebuild-for-strength business strategies. I excel in storytelling and crafting content-driven, integrated programs that drive brand awareness and demand creation to ultimately achieve revenue generation. I also have a "unique set of skills" as it comes to leveraging influencer relations to redefine markets or create new ones, earning me a reputation as a game-changer in the industry.

In 2019, I was recognized by SC Media for advocating aggressively for the ethical protection of security research and how it is used in businesss. I've also spoken on this and other topics at DEF CON, RSA Conference, Hack in the Box, Gartner Security Summit, CyberMarketingCon, invite-only hacker conferences, and more. I run an ongoing SecurityWeek column on soft skills required for successful cyber business operations and write an ongoing "Rising Tides" feature that highlights people making change for the humans in cybersecurity.

While I am a great business leader, my true passion is healing and teaching, having spent the last two years on a quest for centering in self-energy and achieving heightened spiritual awareness. I am an intuitive healer, trained and certified in many metaphysical healing modalities, and my ultimate goal is to create a NGO that provides healing alternatives for women and underrepresented groups who may not have access to traditional mental health when facing untenable or life-threatening situations. I am currently assembling a Board of Directors of doctors and clinicians to support this.

At this stage of my career, I'm committed to supporting companies and individuals by sharing my hard-earned experience and lessons so they can grow in any facet they need. Let's connect.
