OODA CTO Bob Gourley was joined by former CTO of the CIA Bob
Flores in a discussion on the state of enterprise technology,
resulting in this next in our series designed to provide actionable
insights to leaders in business and government.
Bob is a member of the OODA Network and was one
of the scheduled speakers of our now postponed OODAcon “Future Proof“.
Flores has a very interesting background where he has continued
to build on his experiences and education in a way that makes him
the exemplar for many of us. With his degrees in statistics and
years of volunteer work as an emergency responder he has a knack
for quickly assessing complex situations. And his years of
enterprise technology leadership have equipped him with an almost
magical ability to assess technology and its relevance to
enterprise missions. On top of that he has served commercial
industry with hands-on technology and cybersecurity assessments and
even a stint as an acting CISO for one of the world’s largest
banks.
This interview with Bob brings insights from his background
contextualized for the CEO or government leader seeking to inform
decisions.
