Organizations tend to starve functions that do not add directly to the bottom line. At the recent IAPP 2019 Global Privacy Summit, Adobe, IBM and Carnival privacy professionals offered guidance on making a business case for privacy and on advocating for the necessary budget for privacy programs. The panellists shared advice on achieving these goals by, among other things, using metrics and effective communication strategies.
