Episode Description

Why do so many organizations invest in technology but overlook leadership in security?

In this episode, M.K. Palmore, the founder and principal advisor at Apogee Global, talks about building a people-centered approach to cybersecurity, physical security, and leadership advisory for growing organizations. He shares how his experience across the FBI, Marines, and Silicon Valley shaped his mission to bring enterprise-level security expertise to small and mid-sized organizations without Big Four pricing. He explains Apogee’s three service lines spanning security risk, talent acquisition, and strategy and leadership development. He also challenges traditional tech hiring by arguing that leadership capability is just as critical as technical skill.

Tune in to hear how leadership-first thinking can transform security, culture, and long-term business success!
