Women Leading Privacy KnowledgeNet Chapter Ideas www.iapp.org

Goals/Overview www.iapp.org Goals Introduce the Women Leading Privacy Section Offer ideas and resources for creating Women Leading Privacy KnowledgeNet Chapter meetings What is Women Leading Privacy? Women Leading Privacy is where many of today’s top privacy professionals come to give and get career support, to help advance women in the field and to expand their personal and professional networks with a slew of opportunities. Who helps to lead these efforts? Guiding the Women Leading Privacy Section is the Advisory Board, a diverse group of women with comprehensive experience and expertise in privacy. Why did the IAPP create this Section? While there are as many women in privacy as there are men, the truth is that women experience unique industry hurdles and challenges. The Women Leading Privacy Section was created to address those unique issues and to help advance women in the field. How can I help promote these efforts? With help from the Women Leading Privacy Advisory Board, the IAPP has compiled the following meeting ideas based on formats successfully used by KnowledgeNet Chapters. Contact your local chapter if you are interested in planning local events. Where can I learn more? Check out the “Resources” on the last slide! www.iapp.org

Meeting Logistics www.iapp.org Selecting a Location Reach out to local companies, law firms, educational facilities or other local venues that might be willing to donate meeting space (the “host location”). All meetings are free to attend. The IAPP requests that chairs rotate locations for each meeting within different companies in the area. Selecting a Date Volunteer organizers work with the local host and speakers to discuss a tentative schedule of dates for the meeting KnowledgeNet Chapter meetings generate the largest attendance when scheduled on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday . Avoid scheduling on holidays and IAPP events (Summit- March/April, Data Protection Intensive- April, Canada Symposium- May, Academy- September/October, Data Protection Congress- November/December) Partnering with your KnowledgeNet Chapter Chairs and the IAPP It is important to note that throughout this process, you will be working closely with your local KnowledgeNet Chapter chairs and an IAPP staff contact. Things to keep in mind: Chairs should be notified of the date, time, location and topic of your proposed WLP meeting The IAPP will take care of invites, supplies, RSVPs, and post event attendance recording www.iapp.org

Meeting Ideas Round Table Panel Coach Speaker Networking Fireside Chat The following slides include a non-exhaustive list of meeting formats, including the following. We have also incorporated some sample invitations along with proposed topics. Round Table Panel Coach Speaker Networking Fireside Chat www.iapp.org

Roundtable www.iapp.org A roundtable is where participants agree on a specific topic or topics to discuss and debate. These are generally more informal discussions with all in attendance participating. Examples: Roundtable discussion on making the business case for privacy Roundtable discussion on advocating for yourself and other women in privacy www.iapp.org

Panel A panel discussion involves a group of people gathered to discuss specific topics in front of an audience. Panels can accommodate a wide range of topics, such as: TCPA, PCI, and other call center privacy requirements APEC and Asian privacy law Privacy law basics for wearables companies www.iapp.org

Coach A coach is often a recognized expert in a specific area, such as networking skills. Incorporating a coach into your program holds participants accountable to their goals, but also draws interest from a broad range of participants. Using a coach for topics such as: Public speaking and professional presentations Advocating for yourself in your career Speed networking and elevator pitches www.iapp.org

Speaker Similar to a coach, a dedicated speaker can add to the educational value of your presentation. Unlike a coach, however, speakers often speak to inform the audience of specific subjects, as opposed to training or instructing the audience on skills. Examples: EU privacy expert explains GDPR compliance HIPAA expert overviews basics for health tech companies www.iapp.org

Networking www.iapp.org Networking events help draw interest from a broad range of participants who are looking for valuable connections, and career longevity. These events tend to be informal and center around social events such as Happy Hour or a.m. Coffee/Tea. Examples: Chicago Women in Privacy Mixer Diverse Privacy Professionals Happy Hour IAPP Privacy Breakfast, hosted by the Women Leading Privacy Section www.iapp.org

Fireside Chat www.iapp.org Fireside chats are similar to panels, but are often more intimate conversations between two people in front of an audience. Example: conversation between an expert speaker and an interviewer, focusing on the speaker’s career or another focused topic www.iapp.org
