Founded by Farah Zaman, former General Counsel at ElevenLabs, Chief Privacy Officer at Meredith Corporation, and Senior Global Data Privacy Counsel at Colgate-Palmolive, Zaman Strategies brings experienced leadership into law firms, startups, and established companies when it's needed. Farah hasn't just advised on privacy and AI programs; she has built, led, and transformed them from the inside.
Through Zaman Strategies, Farah brings over a decade of privacy and AI governance leadership directly to law firms and businesses that need on-demand expertise. She has worked across sectors, industries, and maturity levels, adapting to each client's culture and needs to remove obstacles, close gaps, and build effective and efficient solutions.
Her fractional, embedded approach pairs senior expertise with hands-on implementation. That might mean support on a single project, a program built from the ground up, an overhaul of an existing one, or steady, side-by-side support that moves the needle one step at a time.
A startup or growing company needs CPO-level leadership but isn't ready for a full-time hire.
