Our Data Governance Program is Built. Now What? An Advanced Data
Governance Tutorial Robert S. Seiner, President and Publisher, TDAN.com/ KIK Consulting & Educational Services Due to popular demand, this presentation has been updated and will be offered in a repeat performance in June in San Diego. The term Data Governance has been around for several years now. Many organizations have either 1) established programs and are in the incremental deployment phase, 2) have started defining and putting a program in place, or are 3) planning for the effective delivery of a program. Much continues to be written and spoken about how to get a program off the ground. Yet little has been written and spoken about what to do once you have busted out of the gate and started down the path to success. Or path to wherever that path may lead. This Advanced Data Governance Tutorial answers the question - Our Data Governance Program is Built . Now What? This tutorial with discussion led by Bob Seiner will focus on methods to effectively apply data steward roles & responsibilities in a pro-active and reactive manner past the early deployment phase and preparing a program for long-term success. Topics to be discussed include:

Building a Data Stewardship Practice from Soup to Nuts (especially the nuts) David Plotkin, Data Governance Manager, AAA of Northern Ca, Nevada, and Utah More and more companies are coming to terms with the fact that they need to have a data stewardship function in order to be effective in collecting metadata (including definitions, derivations, and data quality rules), MDM, and data quality. A lot has been said and spoken about why stewardship is important, but HOW do you do it and be effective with limited resources (in the “real world”)? And what part does stewardship play in Data Governance? This presentation answers these questions and details how to set up a data stewardship function, how to run it, the details of managing the stewardship committee, recruiting help from IT for technical stewards, what the duties of the data stewards are, and what decisions they have to make. In addition, it covers how to staff projects for stewardship and funnel the information from projects back into the overall stewardship process. You will learn:

Organizing for
Data Quality Thomas Redman, President, Navesink Consulting Group Much like any other important endeavor, success in data quality depends on having the right people in the right jobs, working within a well-defined governance structure. But who, specifically, are these people and what are they supposed to do? The question is especially crucial because virtually everyone touches data in some way or other and so can compromise or improve their quality. This workshop provides practical answers to these questions, structuring the discussion around three specific case studies that provide insights and best practices for data quality organization structure and roles and responsibilities. Topics include:
The notion that “data are assets on par with other assets such as people and capital” is beginning to gain traction. It is a powerful notion and we’re just beginning to understand its implications, which go far beyond data quality. These implications are embedded in every aspect of this workshop. |
