  TOPIC: Creative Management of Data Resources

  Organizations of all sizes sort of understand data management and governance.  Even smaller organizations now face a litany of familiar issues. Resistance, lack of support, rampant data incompetence, huge data debt, poor business alignment, or pressure to make data efforts a “low hanging fruit project. Now layer on AI, advanced analytics, compliance, and the wave of technologies – mesh, fabric, catalog, etc.  Then throw in a good dose of societal change, ethics, and gaps in skills.   Ick.  What is a medium, small, and really, a large organization supposed to do?

  The presentation will cover advanced tactics for refining approaches, engaging leadership, ensuring sustainability, and crafting a solution for your organization. We will cover some techniques for being creative and go over some new ways to look at old issues.  It is based on John’s 30 years of standing up effective data governance programs.
