After a pivotal year in executive and board-level roles, Talila Millman plans to offer regular perspectives on mission-critical technology, AI-driven innovation, and modern CTO leadership throughout 2026.

Following a period of reduced public visibility, CTO of TAIT communications, Talila Millman, has confirmed that she will begin sharing more information about her professional activities at Tait Communications throughout 2026. The announcement was made via a recent social media post, where Millman reflected on a transformational year and outlined her plans to re-engage more actively with the technology leadership community.

Millman stepped into the role of Chief Technology Officer at Tait Communications in 2025, joining a global leader in mission-critical communications at a pivotal time for the industry. In parallel, she was appointed as an independent director of BGIN Blockchain, serving on the board through the company’s public offering. According to Milman, these responsibilities required a strong focus on execution, strategy, and governance, prioritizing delivery over public commentary.

As she looks ahead, Millman indicated that 2026 will mark a renewed phase of engagement. She plans to provide regular insights on topics including leading technology organizations through complexity, the role of artificial intelligence and situational intelligence in mission-critical environments, lessons from serving on the board of a publicly traded company, and practical applications of her TRIUMPH Framework for organizational transformation. She also intends to address the evolving responsibilities and challenges facing modern CTOs.

The announcement prompted a wide range of responses on LinkedIn from senior leaders across technology, engineering, AI, and executive leadership. Several commenters welcomed her return to more frequent dialogue, noting the value of perspectives shaped by both boardroom and operational leadership experience. Others highlighted the relevance of her forthcoming insights on AI implementation, governance, and long-term value creation for stakeholders.

In her replies, Millman emphasized that board-level exposure has strengthened her focus on articulating sustainable, long-term value, particularly within high-stakes and regulated environments such as mission-critical communications. She also expressed enthusiasm about contributing more consistently to industry discussions as new technologies and leadership models continue to reshape the sector.

With strong engagement from the professional community and clear themes outlined for the year ahead, Millman’s forthcoming updates are expected to offer practical and strategic insight into technology leadership at Tait Communications and beyond.
