You've Been Heard, Wednesday, June 17th, 2026
Kevin Neureuter reframes IT as a revenue protector, urging owner-level options, smart governance, and resilience.
In this You've Been Heard IT leadership podcast episode, Kevin Neureuter, Jr., Director of IT at DiMarco Group, argues IT should be framed as a "revenue protector, not a cost center," presenting business owners with weighted options and recommendations rather than technical jargon.
He discusses ISO 20000 certification and CMMI Level 3 as practical efficiency tools rather than bureaucracy, and recommends business-requirements-driven AI guardrails over blanket bans to curb shadow IT.
He emphasizes vision-driven leadership, vendor relationship-building, and maintaining technical skills through home labs and side businesses.
Looking 18 months ahead, he warns of rising cyber threats and urges IT leaders to stay prepared, resilient, and adaptable rather than paralyzed by fear.
