Claire Williams OBE to speak on Leading Change and Building Strong Teams
Leadership powerhouse Claire Williams OBE will speak at Infosecurity Europe 2024, sharing practical strategies and wisdom honed through her experience of leading the Williams Formula 1 racing team.
Williams will speak about how to navigate change and develop a team infused with your core values in an exclusive conversation with Infosecurity Magazine on the Keynote Stage on Thursday, 6 June.
Due to increasing cyber threats, cybersecurity leaders must ensure that resources and skills are used to the best of their abilities.
Williams will share her insights on how to engage a vast workforce, embed key values, and motivate others to have conviction in operating to the best of their ability.
"I am delighted to be joining the keynote stage at Infosecurity. There are so many parallels between the F1 and cybersecurity worlds - not least teams having to constantly operate in highly pressurised and fast paced environments while having to make logical, sound and quick decisions,” Williams said.
“I’ll be discussing how I have personally approached managing a team of 1,000 people in the challenging world of Formula One for close to a decade, as well as cultural and business transformation and gender diversity. I look forward to seeing you all there," she added.

Nicole Mills, Exhibition Director at Infosecurity Group, said: “The event represents an opportunity for the cybersecurity profession to come together to discuss challenges and learn from others. When it comes to engaging workforces and implementing a strong culture, an imperative for cybersecurity teams, it’s compelling to draw parallels with those outside of our industry and learn how they mastered it.”
