545: CIA Hacker to Tech Entrepreneur: How Cybersecurity Can Make or Break Your Business

From CIA hacker to cybersecurity advisor to a U.S. President.

Now trusted by Fortune 500 companies, international banks, and leaders like Bill Gates.

(And he almost missed the CIA meeting... because it was raining.)

"Something told me, it was a Thursday afternoon. ... and something told me, you have to go to the co-op office today. You have to go today. ... I believe there’s this inner voice and ... this thing came over me, and I get out of class at 3:30. It’s raining. It’s a 10-minute walk... So the universe is testing me."

In this episode of the Strategy Skills podcast, Dr. Eric Cole — former CIA hacker, Cyber Wingman for the U.S. Air Force, and Commissioner on Cybersecurity for the 44th President of the United States — shares lessons from a career built on discipline, pattern recognition, trusting your instincts, and letting data — not emotions — drive decisions.

Today, his expertise is trusted by Fortune 500 companies, international banks, and some of the world’s most influential leaders, including Bill Gates.

If you're serious about operating at the highest levels, you’ll want to study this episode carefully.

We cover:

- Why cybersecurity is a competitive advantage when used properly
- How to build $7M companies that sell for 9–10x revenue
- Why protecting your intellectual property early can create millions in extra value
- Why minimizing exposure — in business and in security — is key to surviving long term
- How real entrepreneurs use data, not emotions, to make decisions
- Why building businesses in "Blue Oceans" (no competitors) is critical
- Why ethical sales beat high-pressure tactics every time

Plus:

→ The simple morning routine he uses to stay sharp
→ How he protects his personal AI to avoid being replaced by it
→ How to build companies designed for high-value exits — not 30 years of exhaustion

If you’re thinking long-term about leading, building, and protecting real value, you will find this episode helpful.
