You Have Data Owners But Do They Really Own The Data

Many organisations have the Data Governance roles "appointed" and therefore believe that the role is being exercised. Often thats not the case, because in many organisations the underlying ecosystem is one of behaviours, demonstrated through: Workarounds Shortcuts Skipping validation Shadow processes There will be more of course, however the thing is that while all of those exist and the behaviours are not supporting the data, while you have names against roles they may not be doing that much. When you add to that, that many of these people are passive within that role so its Data Owner "In name only" then the ownership of the data is not only not clear, it remains in the shadow processes, shortcuts and workaround. Thus video takes you through how that looks and more importantly what you can do about it.
