  • First class podcast production!

    I met Doug Camin while speaking at the NYS Cybersecurity Conference in Albany. He introduced himself to me after the session and asked me to be a guest on the DPIN podcast. It was a true honor and Doug and team made the entire process easy from start to finish and the final production quality was far beyond what I could have imagined. I have been enjoying the real-world insights from other guests as well. Great job!

407- The Day IT and OT Finally Talked w/Bill Markut
Q: What do you see IT needing to understand about the business that IT often misses?
IT leaders need to understand the full scope of manufacturing processes, including how data from MES, ERP, and OT flows through the production lifecycle, to enable technology choices that truly drive business outcomes.
407- The Day IT and OT Finally Talked w/Bill Markut
Q: If you could fix one big challenge in IT leadership tomorrow, what would that be?
Shift focus from purely technology to people and culture, building trust, aligning cross-functional teams, and embracing gradual change through pilots and collaborative decision-making rather than top-down mandates.
403- Why Home Labs Beat College Degrees w/Thomas J. Sweet
Q: What part of the business do you need to know and understand at your level right now in order to be effective as an IT leader?
I need to understand the private equity dynamics, the M&A cycle, and how IT can quickly assess and secure data access and governance, while also managing cultural change to ensure security and compliance in migrated or acquired companies.

Q: How is AI impacting your law firm, and how do you balance innovation with risk?

Q: What have you learned about leadership at a young age, and how has your view evolved?
Early on I felt pressure to be the smartest in the room and control everything; now I focus on clarity, guardrails, servant leadership, and enabling others to contribute their ideas, which builds a stronger team.
