about:
Seasoned global technology executive with over two decades of leadership at the forefront of digital transformation, enterprise innovation, and operational scale. My career spans senior leadership roles across some of the world’s most respected technology and consulting organizations — including Ernst & Young, IBM, HCL, and Wipro — where I’ve consistently delivered transformational growth, architected modern digital ecosystems, and guided Fortune 500 clients through complex technology evolution.

My approach is rooted in business outcomes, powered by deep technology expertise, and shaped by a global perspective.

Previously, I held global leadership roles at IBM, where I spearheaded hybrid cloud growth and co-created regional and global alliances with AWS, Microsoft, and Red Hat — building the foundations of a modern partner ecosystem and expanding IBM’s cloud and AI footprint worldwide.

Select Highlights:

•  Directed multi-sector digital modernization initiatives, including large-scale application transformation and hybrid cloud adoption
•  Built and scaled consulting practices exceeding $400M in revenue, with end-to-end P&L accountability
•  Led AI and GenAI strategy across energy, public, and industrial sectors — from pilot to scaled deployment

about:
What will work look like in 5 years, 10 or even 15 years?  We know it’s going to look different than it has in the past but how quickly will technology advancements and the unprecedented speed in which digital is evolving impact the workforce and the way in which we work? That is at the heart of the work I do for Accenture and how we help sculpt and prepare the next generation workforce.

I have a deep interest in how people think, their motivators, how it drives their actions and what we can do at the intersection of digital technology and human connection to drive optimal performance.

As well as leading our Global Talent & Organisation Practice, I am also the Exec Sponsor of Inclusion and Diversity for Accenture and spearheaded the #DaretoShare video campaign, encouraging senior leaders to open up on personal topics, such as dyslexia and depression. I’m passionate about coaching the next generation of women leaders and support  numerous organisations such as the London School of Economics and the Girlguiding Association on the subject of women in leadership, as well as coaching a number of women leaders and executives.

Outside of work, I am active within Contact the Elderly - the only UK-wide charity dedicated to tackling loneliness and social isolation, providing a lifeline and friendship link to many elderly people. As a co-host for afternoon tea parties I’ve found the perfect combination of my love for baking and my passion for  giving something meaningful back to my local community. I am also a Mentor for Camp CEO - an initiative by the Girlguiding Association to mentor guides aged 14 to 17 from across the UK, and help grow women leaders of the future.

headline: Human Insight | Data & Technology | Creative Strategy | Experience Innovation

about:
I help organizations innovate by understanding the people they serve.

My work starts with curiosity about people: what they value, what they choose, what they trust, and how culture is changing around them. Over the past 20+ years, that curiosity has taken me across the U.S. and Europe, through creative agencies, global design consultancies, and now professional services, shaping how I translate human insight into decision‑making in brands, products, services, and experiences at scale.

That mix is what makes the work interesting to me. The creative world taught me to find the human truth that makes an idea matter. Consulting has sharpened how I connect that truth to data, technology, and business decisions.

As AI accelerates research and strategy work, the advantage shifts to judgment: asking better questions, knowing what to trust, and understanding what is genuinely meaningful to people.

For an AI capability to become reusable, the problem underneath it needs to be painful, frequent, valuable, and repeatable enough to justify the investment. The timing has to be right too.

Michael Spadea, JD, CIPP

sourced_title: U.S. Practice Lead- Information Governance, Privacy & Security (IGPS)

about:
Privacy, Risk & Cybersecurity Executive | Practice Builder | Incident Response · AI Risk · Regulatory Compliance | JD · CIPP

I build privacy, risk, and security programs that hold up under regulatory scrutiny, board pressure, and real incidents.

At FTI Technology I lead Risk & Compliance and Information Governance, Privacy & Security for North America. The work spans the full lifecycle: defining problems that organizations have struggled to frame, designing programs proportionate to actual risk rather than checkbox compliance, and implementing them inside institutions where the politics are complicated and the stakes are material.

My background is unusual in this space. Legal training (JD) combined with operational depth means I read the statutes, not just the summaries, and I have managed the technical specialists doing the hands-on work. I have run incident response for significant breaches, closed security MRAs at financial institutions under active regulatory, and built practices from the ground up.

The convergence of AI and security is where I spend a lot of time now. AI-generated code is creating vulnerability surface area faster than most organizations can inventory it. Governance frameworks that look good on paper are not keeping pace with how these systems are actually being deployed. I work with organizations trying to close that gap operationally, not just on paper.

I am drawn to organizations that need to build something. If you are standing up a privacy or risk function, navigating a significant regulatory matter, or trying to make AI governance real rather than theoretical, I am worth a conversation.
