Introducing the Tech Whisperers Podcast

Inside the Playbooks of the Best Digital Leaders

After a brief hiatus, we’re back with more fascinating conversations with the world’s top CxOs and digital leaders, and what a way to kick things off!


My first guest, 2022 CIO Hall of Fame inductee Neal Sample, opens up about his new playbook, leadership philosophies and how he’s winning with talent.


Neal brings perspective and insight from a career journey spanning digital native companies such as Yahoo and eBay as well as big established brands like American Express, Express Scripts and Northwestern Mutual. He has a PhD in Computer Science from Stanford, so he’s comfortable diving into the deep end as a technologist, but as you’ll hear, he’s just as tuned in to the human side of the IT equation.
