One of the most unique things about Andrew is his ability to link different disciplines together.

Today, Andrew writes and presents extensively on strategy, security and risk management, including his daily emails of security architecture and leadership tips, daily emails of executive leadership, strategy and execution tips, publishing the Security Sanity™ monthly print newsletter, writing a number of books, including From Invisible Crisis to Competitive Advantage for Global 500 executives and the Rules of the AI Road for professionals, along with speaking at conferences and events around the globe.
