Build and Execute a Data Governance Plan “Data Governance For Dummies … tackles a complex subject in an extremely approachable manner. It is an easy read for practitioners and lay people alike.” – Myles Seur, CMSWire, December 13, 2022 The difference between having a lot of data and having a lot of data that contributes to the growth of your business and organization is often a good data governance plan. Data governance requires that people at all levels of an organization build, monitor, and optimize data. Dr. Jonathan Reichental, PhD is an author, trainer, consultant, and professor with a career built around finding solutions to the big problems faced by businesses and governments. His book, Data Governance For Dummies, offers real-world strategies for building, implementing, and evaluating a data governance plan. What exactly is data governance? Data governance is a set of processes used to increase the value of an organization's data and reduce the risks associated with it. It forces a leap from an ad hoc approach to data management to one that is strategic in nature. Fundamentally, data governance is all about managing data well. What kind of role do people who don’t work on data governance teams have in the data governance process? Everyone in an organization has a role to play in good data governance. At a minimum, it's essential to know how different data needs to be treated. For example, certain data is highly sensitive and must be managed in specific ways. Everyone should understand that data is a valuable asset and support processes to increase its value and manage associated risks. What is the most common misconception about data governance you hope your book clears up? Today, most leaders want their organizations to be data-driven, but don't recognize that data governance is at the center of how a data-driven culture is created. This book walks the reader step-by-step through the process of implementing high-quality data governance. Leaders will also understand that data governance does not need to be expensive or bureaucratic. Done right, the results will exceed the effort required to succeed.
