SUMMARY:Real-World Data Governance Webinar: The Impact of Data Governance on Data Literacy
DESCRIPTION:Gartner defines Data Literacy as the ability to read\, write\, and communicate data in context\, including an understanding of data sources and constructs\, analytical methods\, and techniques applied\, and the ability to describe the use case\, application\, and resulting value. That is a mouthful and fair definition. Everything included in the definition screams the need for governance or you will continue to be data uninformed. \nIn this new RWDG webinar\, Bob Seiner will share his experience relating Data Governance to Data Literacy efforts. Sometimes the discipline of Data Literacy falls squarely on the shoulders of Data Governance. Is this best practice or is this wrong? This webinar investigates the relationship between the disciplines and the impact Data Governance has on Data Literacy. \nIn this webinar Bob will talk about: \n\nDefining the relationship between Data Governance and Data Literacy\nWays Data Governance can enable Data Literacy\nAppropriate ownership of Data Literacy\nIncluding governance as a Data Literacy topic\nDirect impact of Data Governance on Data Literacy

SUMMARY:Real-World Data Governance Webinar: Glossaries\, Dictionaries\, and Catalogs Result in Data Governance
DESCRIPTION:Data catalogs\, business glossaries\, and data dictionaries house metadata that is important to your organization’s governance of data. People in your organization need to be engaged in leveraging the tools\, understanding the data that is available\, who is responsible for the data\, and knowing how to get their hands on the data to perform their job function. The metadata will not govern itself. \nJoin Bob Seiner for the webinar where he will discuss how glossaries\, dictionaries\, and catalogs can result in effective Data Governance. People must have confidence in the metadata associated with the data that you need them to trust. Therefore\, the metadata in your data catalog\, business glossary\, and data dictionary must result in governed data. Learn how glossaries\, dictionaries\, and catalogs can result in Data Governance in this webinar. \nBob will discuss the following subjects in this webinar: \n\nSuccessful Data Governance relies on value from very important tools\nWhat it means to govern your data catalog\, business glossary\, and data dictionary\nWhy governing the metadata in these tools is important\nThe roles necessary to govern these tools\nGovernance expected from metadata in catalogs\, glossaries\, and dictionaries

SUMMARY:Real-World Data Governance Webinar: The Role of Metadata in a Data Governance Program
DESCRIPTION:It is impossible to formally govern or manage any-“thing” without information about that “thing.” This certainly holds true for data and information. Data about the data improves confidence in data. Data about data engages and activates people that define\, produce\, and use data in your organization. Data about data is metadata. \nJoin Bob Seiner for a RWDG webinar focused on the role metadata plays in successful Data Governance implementations. Seiner will share examples of ways organizations have connected Data Governance and metadata to address issues and advance opportunities associated with major data-oriented investments. \nIn this webinar Bob will talk about: \n\nA definition for metadata that assures its importance\nUsing metadata to improve three data actions\nPositioning metadata to support investments in data\nRoles for the governance of metadata\nDon’t forget: the metadata will not govern itself

SUMMARY:Real-World Data Governance Webinar: The Role of Data Governance in a Data Strategy
DESCRIPTION:A Data Strategy is a plan for moving an organization towards a more data-driven culture. A Data Strategy is often viewed as a technical exercise. A modern and comprehensive Data Strategy addresses more than just the data; it is a roadmap that defines people\, process\, and technology. The people aspect includes governance\, the execution and enforcement of authority\, and formalization of accountability over the management of the data. \nIn this RWDG webinar\, Bob Seiner will share where Data Governance fits into an effective Data Strategy. As part of the strategy\, the program must focus on the governance of people\, process\, and technology fixated on treating and leveraging data as a valued asset. Join us to learn about the role of Data Governance in a Data Strategy. \nBob will address the following in this webinar: \n\nA structure for delivery of a Data Strategy\nHow to address people\, process\, and technology in a Data Strategy\nWhy Data Governance is an important piece of a Data Strategy\nHow to include Data Governance in the structure of the policy\nExamples of how governance has been included in a Data Strategy

SUMMARY:Enterprise Data World 2022: Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Data Governance Framework & Communication Plan
DESCRIPTION:Data Governance depends on effective communications and having a customized framework that addresses all levels of the organization. A communications plan and framework play key roles in socializing and publicizing important information about your program. These artifacts assist in getting people to understand the value to them and the work that is necessary to change the culture from one of ungoverned to governed data. To be successful\, organizations must build a framework and communications plan required to build and deliver appropriate components of program success. \nIn this workshop\, Bob Seiner will share a customizable framework and plan for effective communications. Through this workshop\, Bob will walk through the steps required to build a working Data Governance framework and communication plan. When this workshop is over\, you will leave the session with customized templates that your organization can immediately use to improve the likelihood of Data Governance program success. \nIn this workshop\, Bob will discuss and share: \n\nCustomizable templates that meet your organization’s framework and messaging requirements.\nThe three Os of effective Data Governance communication planning.\nThe core components and levels to include in a Data Governance framework.\nHow to customize the framework and messaging to match the appropriate audiences.\nPartnering with appropriate functions to deliver a meaningful framework and communications plan.

SUMMARY:Real-World Data Governance Webinar: Data Management Is Data Governance
DESCRIPTION:Data Management and Data Governance are the same thing! Aren’t they? Most people would say that this line of thinking is absurd – or even worse. There is NO WAY that they are the same thing. Or are they? \nJoin Bob Seiner and Anthony Algmin for a lively\, interactive\, and entertaining discussion targeted at providing attendees ways to consider relating these two disciplines. You’ve never attended a session like this. \nIn this session\, Bob and Anthony will discuss: \n\nThe similarities between Data Management and Data Governance\nThe differences between the two\nHow to use Data Management to sell Data Governance … and the other way around\nDeciding if the two disciplines are the same … or different

SUMMARY:Real-World Data Governance Webinar: Activate Data Governance Using the Data Catalog
DESCRIPTION:Data Governance programs depend on the activation of data stewards that are held formally accountable for how they manage data. The data catalog is a critical tool to enable your stewards to contribute and interact with an inventory of metadata about the data definition\, production\, and usage. This interaction is active Data Governance in the truest sense of the word. \nIn this RWDG webinar\, Bob Seiner will share tips and techniques focused on activating your data stewards through a data catalog. Data Governance programs that involve stewards in daily activities are more likely to demonstrate value from their data-intensive investments. \nBob will address the following in this webinar: \n\nA comparison of active and passive Data Governance\nWhat it means to have an active Data Governance program\nHow a data catalog tool can be used to activate data stewards\nThe role a data catalog plays in Data Governance\nThe metadata in the data catalog will not govern itself

SUMMARY:Enterprise Data Governance Online: Building Data Governance Through Data Stewardship
DESCRIPTION:Data stewards play an important role in Data Governance solutions. That is why it is critical that organizations get data stewardship right when setting up their program. The data is governed by people. Some people will even tell you that the discipline should be called people governance.\nIn this session\, Bob shares the reasons why you must build your Data Governance program through the stewardship of the data. There is no governance without formal accountability for data. People become stewards when their relationship to data is formalized. It is the only way. \nThis webinar will focus on: \n\nThe definition of Data Stewardship that MUST be adopted\nThe critical role stewardship plays in governing data\nWhat it means to formalize accountability\nWhy everybody in the organization is a data steward\nHow to build Data Governance through stewardship

SUMMARY:Real-World Data Governance Webinar: How Can Everybody Be a Data Steward?
DESCRIPTION:If you define\, produce\, or use data as part of your job and you are held formally accountable for how you define\, produce\, and use the data\, then you are a data steward. If that statement is true\, then everybody is a data steward. Does this make your Data Governance program more complex? \nJoin Bob Seiner for this thought-provoking webinar that asks and answers the question\, how can everybody be a data steward? His approach to Data Stewardship will at the same time make your program less invasive to deliver and add a touch of complexity when it is recognized that the governance of data involves everybody in the organization. \nIn this webinar\, Bob will talk about: \n\n\n\nDefining the levels and roles of data stewards\nWhat the term “formalized accountability” means\nHow to handle the complexity of everybody being a data steward\nThe complete coverage that is deployed by this approach\nHow to “get over” everybody being a data steward

SUMMARY:Real-World Data Governance Webinar: Building Data Governance Through Data Stewardship
DESCRIPTION:Data Stewards play an important role in data governance solutions. That is why it is critical that organizations get data stewardship right when setting up their program.

SUMMARY:Real-World Data Governance Webinar: Data and Metadata Will Not Govern Themselves
DESCRIPTION:There is a direct relationship between the value your organization gets from its data\, the trust your organization has in its data and how formally that data is being governed. This is not new news. In fact\, this has always been the case. \nJoin Bob Seiner for the RWDG webinar to kick off the year\, where he will discuss that data does not naturally or automatically increase in value or become more trusted without a resolute effort. That effort focuses on governance. The webinar will focus on the effort that must be orchestrated at the strategic\, tactical\, and operational levels of the organization\, to demonstrate value and gain the trust of the people at all levels. \nIn this webinar\, Bob will share: \n\nHow governance applies equally to data and metadata\nThe meaning of a “resolute effort” to govern important assets\nHow the governance of data and metadata increases their value\nThe people who must be held formally accountable for data and metadata\nCommunicating the webinar’s title with people who can make a difference
