Compliance Consultant with 30 yrs experience in InfoSec / Data Privacy

A seasoned IT and Compliance Professional with 20+ years experience in IT Operational Systems, Information Security Governanceand Compliance. I have been working as an ISO Consultant and Auditor for 8 years and manage projects for preparation of ISO 27k1 compliance, Data Governance & Compliance or supporting organisations in creating better Security Policies or Information Management Awareness. Strengths: I am good at adapting to situations in any circumstance, and I remain calm under pressure to ensure we don't lose focus on the end game. I am a great team player, both onsite and remote, and look to support the team, not stand out against the crowd. No work is "above" or "beneath" me; I roll my sleeves up and get to work. Weaknesses: I am susceptible to perfecting my output, which sometimes causes me to overthink my delivery. Projects: I have recently completed projects related to GDPR, legal preparation on GDPR Compliance for Policy and Procedures, data protection, analysis of information and how it is transported within client organizations, and risk assessments on large scale projects for European Institutions in Intellectual Property and Financial Sectors. Achievements and Education: I have a Masters in Business Administration, and I operate my company from Prague, Czech Republic. I employ a humble 16 staff who all work in specific areas around Information Security and GDPR / Data Protection. It has been an extremely rewarding struggle, but a challenge is not fraught without difficulties :-) I am CISSP Certified, GDPR P Certified, ISO 27001 Certified (looking to become Auditor) with a broad knowledge of public speaking ( I have been a speaker for conferences in Eastern Europe on InfSec). I also lecture at King Charles University Post Grads in Prague, Czech Republic, because I believe that the key to identifying good talent is to interface at the source of discovery, which ultimately begins High School / College / University. I am also working to become the Rugby coach for under 21s rugby in the Czech Republic :-)
