WRITA is excited to welcome Kevin Ciccotti as a featured keynote speaker at the 2026 Spring Conference and Exhibition in Mesa, Arizona.
Kevin’s session, The Neuroscience of Leadership, starts with a simple but powerful idea
Leadership is an inside game.
If you do not understand how you lead yourself, it is difficult to effectively lead others. Just like a computer runs on an operating system, so do we. Kevin explores the human operating system, the underlying drivers of behavior and motivation, and how our thoughts, beliefs, and emotions shape our actions.
For government IT leaders managing cybersecurity risk, workforce change, and constant complexity, this matters.
Instead of reacting and cleaning up outcomes we did not intend, Kevin challenges leaders to become more intentional, more self-aware, and more effective.
Takeaways include:
• Understanding your intrinsic motivators
• Recognizing how beliefs and emotions drive decisions
• Leading with intention under pressure
• Unlocking the key to the human operating system
📍 Mesa, Arizona
