After three decades leading global technology and cybersecurity teams, including serving as Global Head of Cyber Risk Culture & People Security at Standard Chartered Bank, Ellie understands the intense, unrelenting pressure CISOs face. When her role was made redundant in 2023, she took an extraordinary turn, purchasing a second‑hand sailing boat in New Zealand and spending 400 days at sea. In the vast Pacific, the disciplines she had refined in corporate cybersecurity – threat awareness, risk mitigation, teamwork under pressure – became literal survival tools.

Now a certified neuroscience-informed coach and founder of the Ikigai D.R.E.A.M. methodology, Ellie helps high performers navigate transitions, regain alignment, and rediscover clarity and momentum. Ellie will reveal unconventional, practical insights for CISOs operating in permanently ‘always‑on’ environments and highlights the most overlooked risk surface in any system – technical or oceanic: The human one.
