Don’t portray IT security as a “complication.”
It's important to understand that the business is the main reason as to why you need to successfully implement security. Without it, there would be none to implement. I always prefer to say that its not security vs functionality, its more like security to complement functionality.

I'd reword #8, though the point is well taken.  Executives hate to be "reminded of" legal details and compliance obligations.  Rather, they prefer to view legal and compliance issues as a matter of risk management.  Present things that way and you're much more likely to at least get informed action.
