Data Governance in Practice: Successes, Pitfalls and Failures
At our last Data Analytics roundtable, we discussed the readiness required for organizations to embark on their data governance journey. We addressed significance of organizational readiness is often underestimated, and the breadth of an ideal governance organization to establish long-term policies and procedures.
