• Why does every organization have to be a “learning organization”?
• What is the future of computing?
• How can quantum computing be a force for good?

This bonus episode with Kelly Richdale is a master class in the potential of quantum computing how the essence of cyber security has changed – to become cyber resilience. Kelly is an independent board director and advisor with a portfolio of international mandates based on technology innovation and digital transformation, with a particular focus on quantum, AI, blockchain, crypto and cybersecurity. Based in Geneva, she is an executive fellow at the WEF, a Senior Advisor at Sandbox AQ and has various board roles.  We are also fellow alums of INSEAD.

Our conversation cycles through the promise and challenges of AI, and the future of quantum computing.  Given Kelly’s board roles we discuss how best to get board members on the learning curve on these complex and ever changing topics and discuss the challenges of building cyber resilience in the current climate.

We end with a discussion of the level of diversity within STEM and what can be done to move the needle.

This is an outstanding study of a career defined by non-conformity but evidenced by brilliance, advocacy and a sense that nothing is impossible.
