Jamal shares his journey from tower blocks to the European Commission, explaining why paper-pushing is a career dead-end and how true value lies in operationalising the law. KEY TAKEAWAYS Certifications are Vehicles, Not Destinations: A certification like the CIPP/E only gets you in the door; real success comes from your ability to connect with stakeholders and solve practical business problems. The Five-Stage Career Model: Professionals typically move through five levels: Novice, Practitioner, Expert, Authority, and Thought Leader. Shift from "No" to "How": Mediocre professionals default to "no" when faced with complexity. World-class leaders find pragmatic ways to achieve business goals while remaining compliant. Simplification is Power: If you can't explain a privacy concept to an 11-year-old, you don't understand it well enough. Value is found in making the complex "Easy Peasy." The AI Pivot: In 2026, privacy expertise alone isn't enough. Top-tier roles now demand a deep understanding of AI governance and the ability to bridge the gap between legal requirements and technical teams. BEST MOMENTS "Having the certification just gets you into the room. It’s the tax you pay to get to the table. Now you’re there, what makes you special?" "Too many professionals treat certification as the destination rather than the vehicle." "If you can't explain it simply enough, you haven't understood it well enough." "AI isn't going to take your job, but someone who knows how to govern AI definitely will." "Don't just be smart—be useful. The more useful you are, the more valuable you become to the business."
