AM4: A Strategic Data Framework Based on Governance Best Practices

Data Governance is the execution and enforcement of authority over the management of data and data-related assets. Governance is required to execute strategy and enforce architecture. Best practice is required to introduce governance into the organization’s landscape. Building a framework that embraces all of these components is paramount to enterprise success.

In this half-day session Bob Seiner will share a proven customizable framework that breaks data strategy into primary functions and sub-functions while applying governance best practices. Those who attend this session will walk away with a structure that can be used to assess their present state and develop a playbook for the present and future data strategy and architecture.

This session will cover:

Development of data direction
Functional support of data strategy
Incorporation of functions into data lifecycle
Usage of data as a valued asset
Development of a framework for data strategy and architecture
