Wed, 23 April 2008  This week I take another tangential journey to discuss a concept I call "The Fixer." You know, when a senior staffer is airlifted in to "fix" security. The Fixer knows how to get things done in your organization, and can certainly be viewed as a threat and as indicative of the fact that security is broken.How should you deal with the Fixer? Why is he (or she) there? Can you turn this into an advantage? Check out podcast #11 and find out... Running time: 6:40 Intro music is Jungle and I sign off with the classic Kool and the Gang anthem "Jungle Boogie," which is the song I associate most with Pulp Fiction. Yes, that's where I stole the term "The Fixer." Comments[0] |
