This document outlines an approach to data governance called Non-Invasive Data Governance. It discusses how traditional data governance can be challenging due to complexity, lack of commitment, and cultural issues. Non-Invasive Data Governance seeks to formalize existing best practices and establish authority by joining existing meetings and councils rather than creating new roles. It emphasizes that data stewardship is not a new position but something everyone can contribute to. The presentation encourages starting small by seeking out best practices, formalizing roles and responsibilities, solving data issues, and planning communications.

performance’
