Opensense Episode 7

In a tech-driven industry that is dominated by men, how can women break barriers and rise to positions of leadership?

With male privacy professionals in the US earning 14% more on average than their female colleagues, it is evident that there is still a lot that needs to be done for women in this sector.

This is one of the core themes of our latest Comply Or Die! podcast episode. As this episode’s guest, K Royal, says, ‘None of us should ever be in a job that we feel we’re not being treated equally'. 

K Royal is an attorney and global compliance leader. She serves as the Global Chief Privacy Officer and Deputy General Counsel at Crawford & Company. She is also a co-host of the Serious Privacy podcast and the author of "GDPR in the USA: @ the Heart of Privacy."

In this episode, K speaks to Jass about:

🔥 Getting Compliance Buy-In From Other Departments

🔥 Why Cultural Differences Are Crucial To A Thriving Team

🔥Data Privacy As A Human Right

🔥 How To Handle Gender Biases At Work

K also shares her fascinating career path from a registered nurse to global chief privacy officer.
