DESCRIPTION
Watch the companion webinar presentation at: http://embt.co/1zjVzEi These days, it seems that many companies are assigning their business and data professionals an urgent task to establish a corporate data governance plan, but many of them aren’t sure where or how to start. In order to implement data governance in your company, you have to deal with multiple challenges, such as: Making a business case for data governance Getting management and executive buy-in (including funding & headcount) Developing a realistic timeline – and realize that it’s an ongoing process, not a time-limited project Implementing a robust infrastructure to establish the framework for your environment Mitigating risks as the program evolves Before you can create an effective data governance program, you have to start with the foundation and treat your data as a corporate asset. When you have a consistent standard for metadata, you can provide a solid structure across your enterprise that will improve data quality, enhance data security, and reduce risk. Join this webinar to learn about a realistic approach to defining, establishing, and measuring success for your data governance initiative.
