there's no recognition dark profession
more important in the vanguard award and
I'm both humbled and honored to be among
builds recognized by ia PP and our
profession my start and privacy actually
began on this 20 years ago when it was
part of the team that hired our first
ppl barb Lawler but the real journey
began ten years ago when barb actually
moved it into it and I was recruited to
integrate and lead the privacy function
for HP two weeks into my role leading
privacy HP suffered a major incident
involving pretexting the company had
always taken privacy very serious but
the incident led the leadership focusing
on the topic in asking us to be
visionary in our thinking which led to a
multi-year strategy and developing a
comprehensive program based on
accountability and social responsibility
in building a comprehensive program
nothing is more important than the
strategic partnerships that you build
within the company we can all create a
vision but unless those who impact data
are fully engaged and feel part of it
it's never going to happen it's critical
to forge true partnerships as our data
driven world becomes even more complex
and interconnected the only way we're
going to stay on the right side of right
is to think beyond mere liability and
fully embrace social responsibility and
ethics to help us balance those tensions
of using information robustly but
ensuring that the rights and freedoms of
individuals of respective this
profession is expanding and we all have
to expand our capabilities even faster
