Data Management Strategies for the CIOData governance can be difficult to get right: Many governance initiatives aimed at creating consistent data-related policies and processes within organizations fail to meet the expectations of their proponents and executive sponsors alike. Effective data governance typically requires a mix of business and IT participation, led by a governance council with representatives from across an enterprise. That creates the potential for a variety of mistakes and missteps if organizations aren’t prepared for the challenges.
