Privacy teams are the business, not an add-on | Delizia Diaz

"Can we just get a quick privacy check before we go live next week?" Getting genuine engagement from the business is one of the most persistent challenges in privacy.

In this episode, Orla Dormer speaks with Delizia Diaz, Senior Privacy Counsel and external consultant to companies including McLaren Automotive and FDJ United, about moving from reactive to proactive privacy. Delizia explains why fear-based messaging and going it alone don't work, how to build allies with the CISO and Chief Data Officer, and why privacy teams need to market themselves as business enablers.

The conversation also covers aligning privacy maturity with leadership and strategy, and why small teams have to prioritise ruthlessly.
