The theme for this year’s AMSRO Leaders Forum was ‘Our Vision, Our Future’ which encourages members to share their ideas and expertise to ‘work together to promote and protect our industry and the key role market and social research plays in shaping our nation’. There were quite a few key speakers including Olympic gold medallist Kieren Perkins who spoke about leadership and success. However, Angela and Wes felt that the most important talk was from Timothy Pilgrim, Australian Privacy Commissioner. Mr Pilgrim spoke about The Future of Privacy and the impact that the new Australian Privacy Principles will have on business leaders and the industry as a whole and what he has learnt about Australians’ changing attitude towards privacy.
