How to Make Your Data Governance Useful

If your data governance program isn’t changing how the business makes decisions, it isn’t useful and this is the webinar for you!  

In this fast-paced session for experienced data leaders, Barbara Nichols shows how to anchor governance in real business use: define data items correctly, name them so people can find and trust them, and connect business terms to area data models and Critical Data Elements. You’ll leave with a repeatable process, a practical checklist for defining terms, criteria for CDE selection, and ways to make glossary-to-model alignment stick in daily work. 

Who it’s for Seasoned data leaders, DG managers, data modelers, stewards, and product/analytics owners who want governance that measurably improves decisions and outcomes. Learning outcomes 

•   Pinpoint the “usefulness gap” and re-anchor governance in business decisions/value streams—fast. 

•   Apply a crisp, repeatable method to define/navigate business terms (definitions, naming, findability) and select CDEs that matter. 

•   Link glossary terms to area data models so standards are discoverable, adoptable, and auditable in day-to-day work.
