Executives by Day, Superheroes by Night

The private and public sectors are two completely different
worlds that often speak different languages. That’s why people
such as Erringer Helbling and Doug Beck, who have worked in both,
are vital in building bridges between the sectors allowing the
best innovation possible for our nation’s security. Helbling is
the Director of Operations for HawkEye 360 and a Captain in the
U.S. Army Reserve for DIU, and Beck is the Vice President of the
Americas and Northeast Asia at Apple and a Captain in the U.S.
Navy, who helped start DIU. The two embody the sentiment
“executive by day and superhero by night” perfectly. In this
episode, they join hosts Dan Dillard and Zach Walker to discuss
how they ended up with a foot in both public and private sectors,
and why this interaction is so critical.
