CT4.COFFEE
The CT4™ Coffee Corner. A recurring virtual cyber hangout — direct, personal time with the author. Bring your transformation question, your career question, your CT4 framework question. We'll figure it out over a coffee.
Why "Coffee Corner"
In 25,000 hours of consulting, the conversations that mattered most rarely happened in conference rooms. They happened over coffee — informal, candid, with the pretense stripped away. The Coffee Corner brings that energy online: recurring 30-minute virtual sessions, 1-on-1 or in small groups of 3-5, where readers, practitioners, and prospective Direct Partners can meet the author directly. No sales pitch. No agenda you didn't bring.
Bring Your Question
There is no fixed agenda — you decide what we discuss. The most common topics raised by past attendees:
📖 Applying the Frameworks
"How do I run my first CT4-SYMPTOMS assessment?" "Where does CT4-MATURITY land in our existing GRC program?" Practical questions about applying any of the six CT4 frameworks to a real organization.
🎯 Your Transformation Plan
You're a few months into a transformation, you have a specific friction point, you want a sounding board. Bring it. We'll work through it.
💼 The Cybersecurity Career
Career changes, role transitions (analyst → architect → consultant → CISO), building a consulting practice, cert path advice. Career questions are always welcome.
⭐ Becoming a Direct Partner
Curious about CT4.DIRECT? The franchise model? What it looks like to run a CT4-licensed consulting practice? This is the right place to ask.
📚 Behind the Book
Why specific design choices were made in the methodology. What didn't make it into the book and why. The next book — Cybersecurity Re-Think.
🤔 Anything, Really
If your question is about cybersecurity, leadership, the CT4 ecosystem, or the path you're on — bring it. Worst case, we figure out who can answer it better.
