GDPR as a superpower: Why a smart data protection organization is your resilience booster
Lean Leader Summit 2025
Is the GDPR still acting as a brake on innovation in your company or is it already a secret ally? I claim from experience that a strong data protection organisation is your best sparring partner for resilient IT. By asking uncomfortable questions about processes, it uncovers weak points before an emergency occurs. And it also prepares you in a way that non-techies can understand! In this way, allegedly annoying obligations become targeted technical and organisational measures that will make your company more resilient.
