DATA
GOVERNANCE
EXPERT
You’re Already a Data Expert.
You’ve been working with enterprise data
for years.
You’ve seen the good, the bad, and the
downright ugly. And you’ve watched the
business of data change.
The End-Game
is No Longer About
a Better Data Warehouse
It’s about the value that data can
deliver to the business. And for
that data to mean something,
it needs to be consumable by
everybody in the organization, not
just the data whizzes.
Today, more and more businesses want
to put better data into the hands of the
people who need it to do their jobs.
That means building processes that
define who owns what data, how it
can be used, and helping the people
who use that data every day, find it,
understand it, and trust it.
THAT’S DATA GOVERNANCE
And it’s a skill set that’s taking off.
Like life, liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness.
We believe that well-governed data
is a fundamental right for
every data citizen.
Of course, you might have more
practical reasons for wanting to be
a data governance expert.
Maybe you’ve just been asked to lead Maybe you’re looking for a new job
the charge on data governance at your or you’re thinking about your next
company. (Yay!) promotion. (Go for it!)
Maybe your boss just asked you to figure Or maybe you work in one of many
out a way to tame the data chaos at your industries where regulatory scrutiny
organization. (Yikes!) demands better control of data. BCBS
239, CCAR, Solvency II, GDPR, HIPAA,
MACRA, CMS Star Ratings. (Do any of
these ring a bell?)
Or you might be thinking hard
about the big issues.
70% of business analysts spend their time
looking for data.
Big data has big potential. But finding the right
information to extract meaning from all those data
sets hasn’t been easy.
Your business just initiated a new Master
Data Management project, but it lacks cross-
organizational collaboration and stewardship.
Highly paid professionals continue
engaging in data brawls where they spend
hours arguing about the meaning and
quality of data.
With little cooperation from key
stakeholders, the last BI project you tried
to launch never got off the ground.
But why be an expert?
While business trends rise and fall, we’ve seen consistent
markers that indicate data governance is no longer a “nice
to have” but rather a business imperative.

data that matters—fast
