Cybersecurity professionals work in high-stress, high-burnout environments. CISOs are on 24/7 and have short tenures compared to the rest of the C-suite. Their teams, stretched thin due to talent shortages and never-ending threats, suffer from chronic exhaustion. This workshop will offer practical techniques - rooted in mindfulness - to alleviate anxiety, stress, and fatigue, skills critical to flourishing at work and in life.
