Matthew Syed is yet another vibrant example of how different worlds collide, but how mindset and the ability to adapt, collaborate and drive innovation, can help secure a future-proofed environment.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Syed will touch on the importance of collaboration and how organisations should avoid institutionalism and open themselves up to change and diverse thinking. Mistakes and failure should become an opportunity to adapt and grow, and sharing those challenges and learning from them, allows for innovation and improvement. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTo quote my book, \u2018Black Box Thinking\u2019 is about the willingness and tenacity to investigate the lessons that often exist when we fail, but which we rarely exploit. It is about creating systems and cultures that enable organisations to learn from errors, rather than being threatened by them,\u201d commented\u00a0Matthew Syed, author and journalist.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The announcement comes hot on the heels of the news of a raft of reputed speakers including, champion sprinter, Michael Johnson and cyber security analyst and author, Keren Elazari, as organisers continue to unveil a stellar line-up. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visitor registration is open for the 2023 event and cybersecurity professionals and members of the infosec community are invited to sign up and secure their place<a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.proofpoint.com\/v2\/url?u=https-3A__www.infosecurityeurope.com_en-2Dgb_lp_register-2Dto-2Dattend.html-3Futm-5Fsource-3Dpress-5Frelease-26utm-5Fmedium-3Dweb-26utm-5Fcampaign-3Dkeynote-5Fspeaker-5Fannouncement-5Fpress-5Frelease-26utm-5Fcontent-3D-26utm-5Fterm-3D&amp;d=DwMF-g&amp;c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&amp;r=f87ejDhntJD3HoGPLJgrZNkV-lGWKLUOpQVT7spSi1c&amp;m=QxgliyH9hTyBFs7N7Nebj9ZUPft6VfJS3vqMjlROYdQ&amp;s=e-RKu9Qwf0Q_kN6nA0tjH6Tbwh1we9_ZREx13mFykj4&amp;e=\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">&nbsp;here.<\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Award winning journalist and Olympian to bring \u2018black box thinking\u2019 to Infosecurity Europe keynote theatre. &nbsp;&nbsp; London, UK; 3\u00a0May, 2023\u00a0\u2013 Ex-Olympian, author and journalist,\u00a0Matthew Syed, has been announced today as a keynote speaker at\u00a0Infosecurity Europe,\u00a0the most influential information security event.
