Keynote: We’re All Scared, Too: 10 Years of Lessons from Cybersecurity Mentorship – Lesley Carhart

For the past decade, Lesley has been running career clinics for job seekers and changers in cybersecurity. For the past year, they have added on 1:1 mentorship office hours. Helping people choose career trajectories and overcome hurdles in employment has been a fascinating window into the fears, insecurities, concerns, problems, and victories of a wide range of people who work (or want to work) in cybersecurity. Many of their challenges are more universal than people are brave enough to admit, and everyone can learn from them to have a happier career.
