Most employees don’t ignore cyber security because they don’t care, they ignore it because it doesn’t connect.

In this episode, Kevin Walker explores why traditional awareness programs so often fail and how to replace fear and fatigue with foresight and engagement.

Through neuroscience, culture and leadership insight, he explains why repetition dulls attention, why fear shuts learning down and how empathy and curiosity build real awareness.
Kevin shares practical ways to make training personal, relevant and continuous - from micro-learning and storytelling to celebrating curiosity instead of punishing mistakes.

Key Takeaway:

Security awareness fails when it feels like a task. It succeeds when it feels like trust - when people see it as part of their work, not apart from it.
