That Tuesday my CEO clicked a phishing link and took down our whole network

I work IT for a 50 person company in Austin and last month someone sent a fake DocuSign email to the whole company. Our CEO clicked it and within 2 hours ransomware encrypted our file server and 12 workstations. How do you get executives to actually take security training seriously without getting yourself fired?

Man that is ROUGH, I feel for you. Getting leadership to actually take security seriously is a nightmare without them just brushing you off.
