An Integrated Approach to Data Governance 

Successful Data Governance requires our energies to lead to data-related activities that benefit our organizations in meaningful ways. While Data Governance must have a strong connection to the business to achieve this – it also must connect people and activities to the data assets themselves.

Assuming your organization relies on more than paper ledgers and hand-written checks, data assets require technological assistance. This connection cannot be accomplished through policy alone and demands a strategic partnership amongst business and technology stakeholders.

In this session, we will explore how we’re building this partnership in the real world at a large enterprise. We’ll discuss balancing the need to start small alongside the need to scale massively to have a meaningful business impact. We will also look at the human and economic drivers of forces that drive our data governance and platform goals. And we’ll make sure you can take what we’ve learned and apply it in your own organization!

Highlights Include:

• The PLANQS framework of connecting data governance to technology amplifiers
• Riding the waves instead of fighting the waves
• Data Governance challenges related to building a large-scale data and knowledge platform
• Connecting top-down and bottom-up data governance efforts
