Listen Later

In this episode of Work 2.0, Rachel Wells sits down with Casey Marks, COO of ISC2—the global certifying body behind the world’s most recognized cybersecurity credentials—to unpack the next decade of work in an AI-driven world.

From the power of “soft skills” (spoiler: they’re not soft anymore) to the rise of entry-level cybersecurity pathways that don’t require a degree, Casey pulls back the curtain on how AI is reshaping the job market, and why everyone (not just tech teams) needs to be thinking about security.

He also gives a surprising take on whether “cybersecurity” will even be called cybersecurity in ten years’ time.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

* Why every role now includes a cybersecurity dimension, even if you’re in HR or operations.

* Why degrees alone are no longer enough to land high-paying tech roles, and what employers actually look for.

* The underrated skills that separate successful tech professionals from the rest.

* I also ask Casey a cheeky question at the end, so stay until the end to hear his answer!
