I’d like to work up to something like a Chief Privacy Officer position but I’m not sure where to start. There’s availability for the position (gap in leadership) and I’m in a good place to assume it eventually, but I feel like my technical skills aren’t there yet. Right now I’m a generalist who loves privacy law. What are skills/traits a CPO should have?

At the moment i manage a team of 5 industrial designers for b2b sustainable fashion and retail interiors.

Did anybody else make a similar career switch? Any advice for switching to product is welcome. Thanks!

I felt like a walking zombie during thanksgiving, barely eating and barely talking. My family is small and I told them ahead of time my relationship ended. I focused on my niece and nephews, cried when I wanted to and slept from 8pm-noon for the last 5 days. Showered once or twice. That’s the best I could do and that’s OK right now. I’m back in my apartment, just trying to take it one day at a time, and not re read his texts too much. My birthday is Thursday 🙄

Hi all,
Been doing privacy for about a year now in-house. Got my CIPP/US.
Having major imposter syndrome still. I feel like the minute I finally have a grasp, something changes. The law and nuances just seem overwhelming. Maybe it’s just a lack of guidance/uniformity in the US. I’m not sure if I feel this way because it is simply the nature of the work or because I’m just not capable.
