Importance to build up strategic foundations through data governance.
Julien Ho-Tong, Partner and Data/AI Strategy, and Governance Expert at Artefact, interviewed by Caroline Goulard, Journalist and CEO of Dataveyes, talks at length about data governance: what it is, why it’s important, what constitutes an effective data governance strategy, and most importantly, how to acculturate ExComs to its value.
“To implement data governance, top management might ask to be convinced of ROI first. Also, they need to realize that it’s an enterprise-wide transformation topic that will be mobilizing business, data, and IT. Executive sponsorship is easier to obtain if you begin by focusing on one or two data domains (product, customer, supplier),” explains Julien.
He explores multiple aspects of data governance, including:
- Technology and tools,
- Compliance and legal aspects,
- Data security and privacy,
- Data usage and analysis,
- Organizational culture and change management,
- Future trends and scalability,
- Cost and ROI
