"We are at war with cybercriminals, and the time to breach is moving at the speed of light." In this powerful conversation, Doug Hammond reveals why the future of leadership isn't about code—it's about "holding the hand instead of the pen."

Doug Hammond has managed cybersecurity for the biggest banks and most vulnerable charities. Today, he pulls back the curtain on the "Shadow AI" revolution, the mental health crisis in tech, and how he’s leading 13,000 people through a digital transformation that prioritises the heart over the hardware. Whether you’re a CEO, a tech enthusiast, or someone worried about their job in an AI world, this episode is a masterclass in modern leadership.

In a world obsessed with efficiency, how do we protect the most vulnerable? Doug Hammond discusses the intersection of Sovereign AI, Identity Management, and Human-Centric Leadership. He explains how his organisation, Uniting, uses "Buddy" (a digital assistant) to save thousands of hours—not to cut staff, but to give them back the time to be human.
