Thanks, Richard for sharing your experiences: Here are my key takeaways about the day-to-day challenges of a DPO: 1- Keeping ROPA up to date. 2-Breach Management- Determining the severity of the violation, the impact on the organization, for the individual. Can it be reported? 3-Data Owner Access Requests They are going to want a copy of everything you recorded. Are you ready to do some collating and get it ready on time? 4-When the marketing team contacts you. :) *Tip: Prepare your "NO" emails ahead of time. 5-Trying to encourage the organization to DPIA and making sure that the organization does its DPIA. *Tip: Do it before processing activity. :)
I agree these are the main challenges. I particularly agree with the breach coming in at 4:30 on Friday afternoon :) I think the number 1 for me is getting teams and leaders to understand the need for data protection to be involved at the start of projects rather than 1/2 way through.
It’s often a challenge getting buyin early doors. Some companies get it, even thrive on it. Others don’t at all. Sometimes you have to pick your battles
Agree with all these! Great video! Keeping the ROPA updated is challenging especially when purposes are dropping off and new ones implemented and then the knock on effect on the privacy notices need to managed. For DPIAs you are right, building awareness that they need doing at the outset is a challenging task. Having a flagging system within procurement can provide some insurance (for activities requiring a supplier).
Thanks for the insightful vid as always - I agree with pretty much all the challenges mentioned here. The DPIA point is painfully accurate...I try my best to make sure this process runs in parallel to updating the RoPA but it doesn't always work out that way in practice haha.
Hello, new to your channel. Planning to go into DPO after uni. I'm reading some books at the moment. What other books will you recommend? And is there any video detailing your journey from uni or how you got into DPO?
Hey, it depends what you are already reading! The Dummies Guide to GDPR by Suzanne Dibble is very good, as is the Ultimate GDPR Practitioner Guide by Stephen Massey! I haven’t done a specific video on my journey but I can do

Thanks for watching! If you are getting your ROPA updated, you are already winning!
