Hello all,
I am a PhD researcher and my area of research centers around the role of CISOs and the different factors at play around that role, such as poor work-life balance, burnout, lack of recognition in the board, etc.
I am extremely passionate about my projects and rather than writing research papers just for namesake, I want to talk to CISOs, understand their side of things granularly, and then present my findings in a way that can potentially have real world implications for practitioners and businesses.
Unfortunately, I have learnt the hard way that it is very difficult to engage CISOs to invest an hour of their time with me to interview for my study, owing to many justified reasons such as not having enough time due to their workload. And please don't get me wrong, I respect that.
For the past few months, I have been trying to connect with CISOs on LinkedIn for this pursuit, but haven't gotten enough numbers. It has come to a point that my advisor has hinted that I let go of these projects as the CISO population is a tricky one to engage.
I am not willing to give up just yet. The problems CISOs face are worth solving, and while I am unable to compensate you for your time invested in my projects (especially because of lesser than usual support from the department), I am deeply committed to providing actionable recommendations that can help CISOs manage their burnout and their work better.
If you are a CISO and would be open to investing an hour of your time someday with me, I would be deeply appreciative of your help. I have the IRB approvals as well, meaning that no identifiable detail would be made public.
Thank you.
