Course overview

Move over DAMA and DCAM, this isn't your Grandma's Data Governance!

Nothing has the power to transform your organization as quickly or as profoundly as Data Governance.

Data Governance is your gateway capability to Digital Transformation, Data Security, AI success and Agile Operations. There is no time to waste and plenty of work to get done. Every organization needs Data Governance and they need people like you to make it work.

Unfortunately, failure is all too common since standard Data Governance reference models are theoretical and vague on how to operationalize real-world Data Governance.

This course lays out the essential Data Governance building blocks and teaches you how to put them together smartly and efficiently. We start by answering the questions : "What does good Data Governance look like ?", "What works ?", "What doesn't ?" and "Why ?" using three case study organizations from different industries different structures and different scales.

More than that, we’ll infiltrate and invigorate Data Governance with Business Architecture Frameworks, Risk Management methods and Agile Delivery concepts to create a new generation of High Performance Data Governance (yes, the Unicorn!).

This course is for

Data Governance professionals who are tired of hitting the wall and ready to finally achieve success.

IT Professionals and Data Analysts looking to expand their knowledge to better influence Data Operations.

Risk Managers and Information Security professionals who want to become twice as good at what they do.

What you’ll get out of this course

Explain Data Governance like a Pro.

You'll be able to crisply articulate what Data Governance is and does : the Data Governance framework, its Value Proposition and Ecosystem with credibility and ease using terms that capture everyone's attention.

Overcome the barriers to success.

Learn what is it about Data that makes it so tricky to manage and why failure is so common. Master modern techniques to leapfrog traditional challenges like siloed culture and legacy systems.

Speak clearly and precisely about Data.

Data is your organization's common language . Learn to speak it like a linguist using clearly defined terms. Preempt arguments and structure productive discussions by adhering to a professionalized lexicon of the most important Data concepts and terms.

Solve real problems.

We'll compare realities from different industries, work on case studies and solve real problems including some of yours. More than knowledge, you’ll leave with workproducts and results.

Become the flagship for Executive engagement.

Learn how to run committees no one will want to miss. Pick the right people to be Data Stewards and build an exciting Next Level Data Governance organization that everyone wants to be a part of.
