The highly anticipated third book in the Leadership Impact Series, The Cybersecurity Blueprint for Executives, is out today on Amazon. The book follows the two releases in the series, 51 Essential Cyber Terms Explained for Leaders and 101 Cyber Answers for Leaders.

Authored by Marco Ryan and Andrew Fitzmaurice, both thought leaders in Cyber and digital transformation, the book is written specifically for non-technical executives in the public and private sectors. By drawing on real world case studies and outlining actionable best practices, it empowers leaders to secure and enhance their organisations in the digital age with confidence.

The Leadership Impact Series has been widely praised for making complex topics accessible and practical for all readers. The Cybersecurity Blueprint for Executives, available now, builds on this foundation, offering critical insights for leaders who must make informed decisions in an increasingly digital and interconnected world.
