The Missing Chapter -

Building a Privacy Team

The missing chapter from So You Got the Privacy Officer Title. Now What?

You’ll receive the missing chapter by email, along with occasional practical writing from BlueSky PrivacyStack on privacy leadership, AI governance, and compliance you can show.

Inside the chapter:

  • Why leading privacy professionals is not the same skill as doing privacy work yourself

  • How to give your team a mission beyond the charter

  • How unclear ownership creates gaps, duplication, and territorial disputes

  • Why silos form even inside a single privacy function

  • How inconsistent guidance erodes credibility with the business

  • Why promises made to leadership can quietly damage trust with your team

  • What it takes to build a privacy function that outlasts you

I’m Teresa (T) Troester-Falk. I have 20 years in privacy and data protection compliance, including the expensive mistakes. I wrote So You Got the Privacy Officer Title. Now What? because the gap I kept seeing was never expertise. It was the operational foundation nobody was talking about directly enough.If the first email lands in spam, it is worth fishing out. It sets up everything that follows.
