IAF Comments to the Colorado Attorney General on the Colorado Privacy Act Stakeholder Sessions August 2022 Home / Publications / Download PDF

Dear Friends, I am excited to share news about some important changes at the Information Accountability Foundation. In the eleven years since Marty Abrams founded the IAF, the organization has grown into a respected, global leader in our work with regulators and industry executives to advance accountability, data stewardship, and ethics. With Marty’s transition last year, we were fortunate to welcome Elizabeth Denham CBE, former Information Commissioner of the United Kingdom and Information and Privacy Commissioner of British Columbia, to the role of Chief Policy Strategist. Her leadership has been invaluable. Now, with Liz’s appointment as Chair of the Jersey Data Protection Authority, the IAF board has had the opportunity, and need, to reconsider the structure and operations of the Foundation. Our mission remains the same: to build on the great successes of the IAF while becoming even more nimble in tackling the most pressing issues in data governance and stewardship. We are also focused on optimizing our resources to ensure that more of every dollar goes directly to driving impactful projects for our members and partners. To that end, I am delighted to announce that the IAF Board today unanimously approved the appointment of Fred Cate as IAF’s new Executive Director and Stan Crosley as Chief Policy Strategist. Fred and Stan are industry veterans with over three decades of experience in data privacy and security, and bring a wealth of knowledge, leadership, and innovation to these roles. Both are very familiar with IAF and Stan currently serves as a Senior Strategist with the Foundation. Together, they are well positioned to help strengthen and lead IAF into an exciting new chapter, focusing on delivering high-impact projects that address specific, timely needs, with fewer routine calls and briefings. In addition to these leadership changes, we’re taking significant steps to streamline our operations and reduce overhead, allowing us to be more flexible and focused on our core mission. As part of this transformation, the Board has decided to contract for limited administrative support, which will unfortunately result in phasing out three staff positions. It is with tremendous appreciation and great regret that we bid farewell to Barb Lawler, President of IAF; Candy Johnson, Director of Finance & Accounting; and Stephanie Pate, Administration and Operations Manager. We are deeply grateful to all three of these colleagues and to the many other strategists, policy board members, supporters, participants, and partners whose hard work has made IAF what it is today. Over the past month, Fred, Stan, and members of the Board have actively engaged with our financial supporters and partners, including at our September members’ retreat. The goal in all of these interactions has been not merely to discuss the transition, but to learn where you see the areas of greatest concern and opportunities for maximum impact. I know you will be hearing more from Fred and Stan in the near future. But for the moment, on behalf of the entire Board, I want to welcome them to their new roles at IAF and thank our staff and each of you for your vision, commitment, patience, and support.
