He has built his career at the intersection of technology strategy\, risk management\, and organizational accountability—helping leaders make clearer\, more confident decisions in moments that matter most. \nAntonio’s work today centers on a modern reality: most organizations don’t have a technology problem—they have an ownership problem. When accountability is unclear\, transformation stalls\, investments misalign\, and risk quietly compounds. His approach helps executives move from “performing leadership” to owning leadership—with clarity\, discipline\, and integrity. \nAntonio partners with individuals\, business leaders\, and organizations to strengthen leadership alignment and build practical capability in AI. He teaches the principles that make AI useful—not theoretical—helping teams implement AI responsibly\, improve decision-making\, increase execution speed\, and create real operational leverage without compromising trust or integrity. \nHe is the author of Stop Trying to Be a Leader\, a book that challenges conventional leadership narratives and reframes leadership not as a role to perform\, but as an identity to claim. The book draws from Antonio’s journey—from hands-on technical roles to executive and board-level leadership—and reflects his emphasis on self-leadership\, decision ownership\, and leading without masks. \nBeyond his client work\, Antonio remains deeply engaged in the leadership community through board service\, public speaking\, and involvement with the Society for Information Management (SIM). Known for his calm presence\, thoughtful perspective\, and practical wisdom\, he brings a grounded voice to conversations about leadership\, technology\, and what it means to lead well in today’s high-pressure environment. \n  \nLearn More & Register:  https://members.simnet.org/event/SLIApril2026 \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” row_position_desktop=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

In this session\, the authors of the GRC.Engineering Manifesto reimagine GRC as an engineered capability\, not a back-office function. They’ll share how forward-thinking IT leaders can embed governance\, risk\, and compliance into their systems\, culture\, and architecture—creating “compliant-by-design” environments that move as fast as their business. Attendees will learn pragmatic steps to shift-left on trust\, treat GRC as a product\, and use automation and data engineering to turn audits into assurance and compliance into competitive advantage. \nCOST TO ATTEND:\nFree for SIM Members.\n$30 for non-members.\nEmployees of SIM Members are welcome to attend for free – please email digirisk@simnet.org for a promo code to register.  \nPlease sign in to receive member pricing for you and your staff.  \nATTENDEE SUPPORT:\nIf you have trouble registering or need to renew your SIM membership\, please email sim@simnet.org. \nIf you require special assistance of any kind\, please call us at 800.387.9746 or email us at digirisk@simnet.org. \n  \nRegister Here\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
