Description

Cyberattack—an ominous word that strikes fear in the hearts of nearly everyone, especially business owners, CEOs, and executives. With cyberattacks resulting in often devastating results, it’s no wonder executives hire the best and brightest of the IT world for protection. But are you doing enough? Do you understand your risks? What if the brightest aren’t always the best choice for your company?

In The Smartest Person in the Room, Christian Espinosa shows you how to leverage your company’s smartest minds to your benefit and theirs. Learn from Christian’s own journey from cybersecurity engineer to company CEO. He describes why a high IQ is a lost superpower when effective communication, true intelligence, and self-confidence are not embraced. With his seven-step methodology and stories from the field, Christian helps you develop your team’s technical minds so they become better humans and strong leaders who excel in every role. This book provides you with an enlightening perspective of how to turn your biggest unknown weakness into your strongest defense.

Wow.
It was not an easy read. It took me few months to read this book, just because I was self-reflecting on my behavior and way of working.
This book is packed with informations that are not only for the cybersecurity area. I'm working in IT/sales and while I was reading it I often thought 'damn, he's right'.
You can find there a lot of examples from life and let me repeat: this book is not only for cybersecurity. That behavior you can find everywhere and it's a really good book to read to learn what you can do with your team to become better employees and just to be a better person overall.
Thanks to this book I changed my way of thinking and reacting to situations. I've learned so much in these 4 months while I was reading.
