Join Bob Seiner and DATAVERSITY for the July installment of the Real-World Data Governance webinar series where the topic will be formally applying Data Governance to Master Data.
Good Data Governance to Great Data GovernanceDATAVERSITY
A dozen years ago Jim Collins authored the book Good to Great (Harper Business, 2001), the first business book that stretched far beyond the traditional business book audience and market. In this webinar (that was also a well-received session at EDW 2013) with Bob Seiner, he will borrow from the main points of this book to focus on the activities organizations should consider to extend their good data governance programs to become great data governance programs.
Seiner will briefly demonstrate factors that have led to “glass ceilings” and highlight those factors that world-class organizations have built governance into everyday activities. Attendees should expect to become part of the discussion while working toward a sensible list of these factors to be taken back to their organizations and applied accordingly.
Join Bob Seiner and DATAVERSITY for this Real-World Data Governance webinar that will focus on why some companies make the leap from good data governance to great data governance, while some do not.
Real-World Data Governance Webinar: Data Governance and Metadata Best PracticeDATAVERSITY
Best practices are defined as a method or technique that has consistently shown results superior to those achieved with other means, and that is used as a benchmark. In addition the definition goes on to say that a "best" practice can evolve to become better as improvements are discovered. A best practice can also be considered a target behavior to which you can compare your organization to deliver the actionable steps you can follow to achieve best practice.
In this Real-World Data Governance webinar, Bob Seiner focuses on defining, assessing and deploying Data Governance and metadata best practice that will move your organization in the best possible direction of success. Participants can expect to leave the webinar with a working list that can be used for self or contracted assessment.
This session will cover:
Criteria to Determine if Something is Best Practice
Development of Data Governance Best Practice
The Process to Complete the Best Practice Assessment
The Delivery of the Assessment to Management
How to Use the Assessment to Deliver Action
RWDG Webinar: Writing Data Governance Policies & ProceduresDATAVERSITY
A policy is a measured order of principles to guide decisions and achieve rational outcomes. Data Governance requires and delivers a way to get to these outcomes. Writing this policy and the associated procedures properly is paramount to program success.
In this RWDG webinar, Bob Seiner will speak about the core components that make up an effective Data Governance policy and what it takes to gain acceptance of this policy. Creating acceptable organizational policy may be easier than you think.
This webinar addresses:
* Essential Components of a Data Governance Policy
* Crafting Basic Data Governance Policy Principles
* Verbiage and Diagrams to Build a Data Governance Policy
* Why Policy is Necessary for Your Program
* Process and Procedure to Support the Policy
RWDG Webinar Everybody is a Data StewardDATAVERSITY
Leadership is beginning to recognize that everyone that has a relationship to your data must be held formally accountable for that relationship. People that define data must look to see if the data they need is already available. People that produce data must understand the impact of what they produce. People that use data must be held accountable for following internal and external rules. Almost everybody has a relationship to the data.
Join Bob Seiner for the June installment of the RWDG webinar series to gain a better understanding of the “everybody is a data steward” approach to stewardship. The future of data stewardship will not only engage the few select subject matter stewards but will be opened to engage everybody in the organization. This open view of stewardship may need to be addressed by your data governance program.
Join Bob Seiner to learn about:
How to expand a data governance program to include a role for everybody
How to define stewardship to embrace formalized accountability
How to communicate with everybody in the organization no matter your size
How to embrace perspectives associated with people’s relationships to data
How to deal with the idea that “everybody is a data steward”
Data Governance and the Internet of ThingsDATAVERSITY
Several years back there were already more devices connected to the internet than people. It is estimated that more than 20 billion devices will be connected by 2020 and that number will never fall. Connecting to the internet implies the transfer of data. The numbers of devices and what they transfer imply a lot of data. Who is governing all of this data?
Join Bob Seiner for this month’s installment of Real-World Data Governance to expand your appreciation of the data issues that pertain to the Internet of Things (IoT). You may be surprised how much of what you already know about data governance applies to governing this new definition, production and use of data.
In this webinar Bob will talk about:
•Clear Description of IoT Focused on the data
•Addressing Data Management Concerns
•Applications of IoT Data
•Dimensions of IoT Data Processes and Quality
•Risk Associated with Interoperability
Data Governance & Data Steward CertificationDATAVERSITY
Becoming certified means that you have been provided some form of external review, education, assessment, or audit and that you passed that review. Being certified can make the difference in getting a job or that desirable position. Many people are seeking certification to differentiate themselves from their competition. It makes sense.
Join Bob Seiner for this month’s installment of Real-World Data Governance to explore the depth of necessity of certification in the field of data governance and the responsibility of the data stewards. Bob will talk about the different certifications available and direct you to the one that is appropriate according to your responsibilities. It may not be as easy as you think. Learn why in this webinar.
In this webinar Bob will talk about:
The Value of Being Certified
Categories of Available Certification
What to look for from Certification
Whether Certification is Right for You
Internal Versus External Certification

RWDG Webinar: DIY and Purchased Data Governance ToolsDATAVERSITY
Data Governance tools are enablers to program success. The metadata stored in these tools become the backbone of a successful Data Governance program. The question of whether to build your own Data Governance tools versus purchasing Data Governance tools must be answered early in the program development process. There are benefits and drawbacks to either way you answer this question.
This month’s RWDG webinar with Bob Seiner focuses on making smart choices when it comes to selecting or developing the tools to support your Data Governance program. Bob will share his experiences of evaluating tools on the market and also share templates and tools that he has created to assist programs through the growing pains of success. There is something in the webinar for newbies and experienced practitioners.
In this webinar Bob will address:
• How to answer the Build vs Buy question
• Criteria for evaluating tools on the market
• Examples of tools you can create yourself
• Complimentary nature of DIY and purchased tools
• Cost and benefits of Data Governance tool choices
RWDG Webinar: Data Steward Definition and Other Data Governance RolesDATAVERSITY
The role of the Data Steward is critical to the success of a Data Governance program. There are several approaches to Stewardship including assigning people to be Data Stewards, identify existing Data Stewards and recognizing Data Stewards according to their relationship to the data they define, produce and use. However Stewards are only one of several Data Governance roles that must be considered.
In this month’s RWDG webinar, Bob Seiner will discuss several approaches to defining the role of the Data Steward as well as the other roles necessary for Data Governance program success. Data Governance roles must include operational, tactical, strategic and supporting levels of responsibilities. Spend an hour with Bob where he will share a customize-able Operating Model of Data Governance roles and responsibilities.
In this webinar, Bob will discuss:
• Several approaches to defining Data Stewards and Stewardship
• How to select the Stewardship approach that is right for you
• Different levels of Stewards required for a successful program
• An Operating Model of DG Roles that can be molded to fit in any culture
• Why the approach to defining DG roles can make or break the program
Real-World Data Governance: Data Governance Roles & ResponsibilitiesDATAVERSITY
Well thought out data governance roles and responsibilities lie at the heart of successful data governance programs. All activities focus on the roles. From how we recognize stewards and apply governance, to how we engage and communicate with the people in the roles – the roles become the operating model for how governance works.
Join Bob Seiner for this month’s installment of the DATAVERSITY Real-World Data Governance webinar series focused on defining an operating model that can be assimilated to your organization. This model includes an easy-to-explain set of roles and responsibilities aligned with how your organization functions.
The session will cover:
Operational, Tactical, Strategic and Support Roles
How to recognize your stewards and other roles
How to apply roles consistently through all facets of your program
Providing incentive for active involvement
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?
Join 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.
In this webinar, Bob will talk about:
- Defining the levels and roles of data stewards
- What the term “formalized accountability” means
- How to handle the complexity of everybody being a data steward
- The complete coverage that is deployed by this approach
- How to “get over” everybody being a data steward
Real-World Data Governance: Data Governance Policy - Components and ContentDATAVERSITY
Metadata is the most valuable tool of the Data Steward. Where the stewards get their metadata and how they participate in the process of delivering core metadata is an issue organizations have been struggling with for years. The Operational Metadata Store or OMS may be the answer.
The traditional Operational Data Store or ODS is a database designed to integrate data from numerous sources that supports business operations and then feeds that data back into the operational systems. This Real-World Data Governance webinar with Bob Seiner and a panel of industry pundits will hold a lively discussion on the practicality of creating the ODS using metadata as the data, utilizing the metadata from a variety of existing sources to operationalize your data stewards.
The session will focus on:
Identifying the most significant metadata for your organization
Identifying existing sources of metadata – known and hidden
Identifying when that metadata will be most useful to your data stewards
Defining a lifecycle that encourages data steward participation
Delivering a model that incorporates all of the above
Real-World Data Governance: Build Your Own Data Governance ToolsDATAVERSITY
There are many tools available to assist your organization to govern your data better. The value from these tools is proven and organizations come to rely on using these tools to deliver high quality and protected data. Some of these tools are available for purchase however many can be developed and provided internally.
This RWDG webinar with Bob Seiner will address the design, development and deployment of several key instruments of data governance success. Bob will describe the purpose of these tools, ways to build these tools and how to deliver value from tools you can construct with little or no cost.
In this webinar, Bob will discuss tools focused on:
Formalizing accountability for governing data definition, production and use
Recording critical data governance metadata
Applying governance to existing and/or new processes
Providing necessary awareness and communications
Building and improving data understanding
Real-World Data Governance: Governing Data – Big and Small, Come One Come AllDATAVERSITY
With Big Data being such a hot topic, a frequent question for panels at conferences and on webinars has been “is there any such thing as Big Data Governance?” Bob Seiner has been asked that question many times in many venues. In this webinar Bob tries to answer that question once and for all. Perhaps you will agree with him. As always, there is a strong chance you won’t.
As many organizations consider Big Data solutions they recognize that there are aspects of big data that require specific attention. Some of these management issues are the same as issues with normal size or small data. Some of these management issues differ. What are the differences and what impact do they have on the governance of that data?
Join Bob Seiner and DATAVERSITY for a Real-World Data Governance webinar focused on investigating the similarities and differences between managing and governing big data versus small data.
RWDG Webinar: Govern Metadata: Vocabulary, Dictionaries and DataDATAVERSITY
Governance Metadata is easier to understand and simpler to manage when you address it in three easy levels. These levels are 1) semantic, 2) business metadata and 3) technical metadata and they are all connected in many ways. Laying out an architecture that addresses these components lie at the core of successful data management and data governance programs. In this Real-World Data Governance webinar, Bob Seiner lays out an overall structure, structure for each level individually as well as their interactions and uses alongside the other levels. A simple schematic is used to demonstrate navigation across levels and value from making available metadata available. Spend an hour with us and take away several useful ideas. This webinar will cover:
•A Three-Tiered Approach to Mastering Metadata
•Description of the Metadata at each Level
•Planning for the Purchase of Governance/Metadata Tools
•Processes for Metadata Change Management
•Role of Communications in Mastering Metadata
RWDG Slides: Activate Your Data Governance PolicyDATAVERSITY
What does it mean to activate a Data Governance policy? Can an inactive policy be effective? Data Governance policies can address different things depending on the organization. Some policies are very general and introduce the awareness of formal Data Governance to the organization. Other policies address specific needs like Data Quality, data documentation, and data protection.
Join Bob Seiner and a special guest for this RWDG webinar where they will tackle of the subject of how to develop and deploy an active Data Governance policy. Bob and his guest will provide specific examples of policy components and examples of how organizations use policies to govern their data.
In this webinar, Bob and his guest will discuss:
- When a Data Governance policy is necessary (and when it isn’t)
- The difference between an active and inactive policy
- Tips for activating a Data Governance policy
- Using the policy to drive Data Governance
- Getting people to follow a Data Governance policy
Real-World Data Governance: Navigating the Ocean of Data Governance ToolsDATAVERSITY
What exactly is a Data Governance tool? Is it what the software companies say it is? Is it something we can develop internally? Is it the traditional data dictionary or business glossary? The answers to these questions are in reverse Yes, Yes, Yes and whatever you say it is. This needs to be explained.
This month’s Real-World Data Governance webinar with Bob Seiner will look at the types of Data Governance Tools on the market and the types of tools that can be delivered internally while evaluating the pros, cons and considerations for selecting the combination that will enhance the capability of your Data Governance program.
This session will cover:
How to Develop Data Governance Tool Requirements
Tools that are Available on the Market and Their Capabilities
Tools that can be Delivered Internally
How to Leverage Tools You Already Own
How to Justify the Purchase of Available Software

These heroes adhere to a data governance framework and work to ensure that data is: captured right the first time, validated through automated means, and integrated into business processes. Whether its data profiling or in depth root cause analysis, data stewards can be counted on to ensure the organization's mission critical data is reliable. In this webinar we will approach this framework, and punctuate important facets of a data steward’s role.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the business need for a data governance framework
- Learn why embedded data quality principles are an important part of system/process design
- Identify opportunities to help drive your organization to a data driven culture
Real-World Data Governance: Governing Customer Data – Is There a Difference?DATAVERSITY
Many organizations select a specific domain or subject area of data to focus on as they kick off their data governance initiative. More often than not, it seems that subject area is Customer data. It is common practice these days for organizations to become customer-centric through being data-centric. Perhaps that is the case with your organization.
RWDG Webinar: The New Non-Invasive Data Governance FrameworkDATAVERSITY
Non-Invasive Data Governance is summarized as the practice of formalizing accountability for data and the application of governance to process. Non-Invasive Data Governance describes how data governance is applied to the organization rather than being forced into the environment. A NIDG framework will be introduced in this webinar.
In this month’s installment of the RWDG webinar series, Bob Seiner will present a new data governance framework that addresses the core components of data governance for each level of the organization. The resulting framework can be used for all approaches to data governance.
In this webinar Bob will discuss:
- The five core components of a data governance effort
- The five levels where the core components will be addressed
- Detailed explanation of each component for each level
- A diagram to complete the framework for your organization
- A framework comparison across approaches
RWDG Webinar: Agile Data Governance - How to Apply Governance to AgileDATAVERSITY
Agile development efforts and Data Governance efforts are at odds with each other. Even though they both have the sponsorship at the highest level of the organization, there is disconnect when it comes to understanding how the two disciplines interact. Supporters of both disciplines swear by their trade and leave little wiggle room when it comes to working together. Organizations want FAST and they require ACCURATE DATA. Organizations require both.
Bob Seiner will address Agile Data Governance in this month’s installment of the Real-World Data Governance webinar series. Agile efforts are typically corporate priority efforts. Data as an asset is an integral corporate priority. Both disciplines are here to stay to address rapidly changing business requirements and improved analytical and data protection capabilities. Organizations must address this separation and they must act quickly.
This webinar will focus on:
•Relating the Disciplines for Senior Leadership
•Finding Common Ground between Agile and Data Governance
•Applying Data Governance to Agile Efforts
•Best Practices for Agile Data Governance
•Gaining Agile Support for Data Activities
Real-World Data Governance Webinar: Data Governance Framework ComponentsDATAVERSITY

Why the selection of approach is so important?
How to determine the best approach for your organization
Real-World Data Governance: How to Write a Data Steward Job DescriptionDATAVERSITY
A Data Steward Job Description is a list of job responsibilities that a Data Steward uses for tasks, or functions, and responsibilities of them in their everyday role. It includes to whom they report, the qualifications or skills needed by the person, and sometimes even includes a salary range. The job description of a Data Steward is not a new job description or different from their other job description. Is this confusing? We thought so.
This Real-World Data Governance webinar with Bob Seiner will focus on defining the typical responsibilities for every data steward all at once, no matter the industry, their role in the organization, or their role in the Data Governance program. Bob will focus on a list of competencies required for people to become great Data Stewards.
The session will include:
Components of a Data Steward Job Description
Seiner’s Rules for Becoming a Data Steward and How They Apply

Laying out an architecture that addresses these components lie at the core of successful data management and data governance programs. In this Real-World Data Governance webinar, Bob Seiner lays out an overall structure, structure for each level individually as well as their interactions and uses alongside the other levels. A simple schematic is used to demonstrate navigation across levels and value from making available metadata available. Spend an hour with us and take away several useful ideas. This webinar will cover:
•A Three-Tiered Approach to Mastering Metadata
•Description of the Metadata at each Level
•Planning for the Purchase of Governance/Metadata Tools
•Processes for Metadata Change Management
•Role of Communications in Mastering Metadata

Real-World Data Governance: Governing Customer Data – Is There a Difference?DATAVERSITY
Many organizations select a specific domain or subject area of data to focus on as they kick off their data governance initiative. More often than not, it seems that subject area is Customer data. It is common practice these days for organizations to become customer-centric through being data-centric. Perhaps that is the case with your organization.
RWDG Webinar: The New Non-Invasive Data Governance FrameworkDATAVERSITY
Non-Invasive Data Governance is summarized as the practice of formalizing accountability for data and the application of governance to process. Non-Invasive Data Governance describes how data governance is applied to the organization rather than being forced into the environment. A NIDG framework will be introduced in this webinar.
In this month’s installment of the RWDG webinar series, Bob Seiner will present a new data governance framework that addresses the core components of data governance for each level of the organization. The resulting framework can be used for all approaches to data governance.

RWDG Webinar: Agile Data Governance - How to Apply Governance to AgileDATAVERSITY
Agile development efforts and Data Governance efforts are at odds with each other. Even though they both have the sponsorship at the highest level of the organization, there is disconnect when it comes to understanding how the two disciplines interact. Supporters of both disciplines swear by their trade and leave little wiggle room when it comes to working together. Organizations want FAST and they require ACCURATE DATA. Organizations require both.
Bob Seiner will address Agile Data Governance in this month’s installment of the Real-World Data Governance webinar series. Agile efforts are typically corporate priority efforts. Data as an asset is an integral corporate priority. Both disciplines are here to stay to address rapidly changing business requirements and improved analytical and data protection capabilities. Organizations must address this separation and they must act quickly.
This webinar will focus on:
•Relating the Disciplines for Senior Leadership
•Finding Common Ground between Agile and Data Governance
•Applying Data Governance to Agile Efforts
•Best Practices for Agile Data Governance
•Gaining Agile Support for Data Activities

Real-World Data Governance: Metadata to Empower Data Stewards - Introducing t...DATAVERSITY
Metadata is the most valuable tool of the Data Steward. Where the stewards get their metadata and how they participate in the process of delivering core metadata is an issue organizations have been struggling with for years. The Operational Metadata Store or OMS may be the answer.
The traditional Operational Data Store or ODS is a database designed to integrate data from numerous sources that supports business operations and then feeds that data back into the operational systems. This Real-World Data Governance webinar with Bob Seiner and a panel of industry pundits will hold a lively discussion on the practicality of creating the ODS using metadata as the data, utilizing the metadata from a variety of existing sources to operationalize your data stewards.
The session will focus on:
Identifying the most significant metadata for your organization
Identifying existing sources of metadata – known and hidden
Identifying when that metadata will be most useful to your data stewards
Defining a lifecycle that encourages data steward participation
Delivering a model that incorporates all of the above
RWDG Slides: Three Approaches to Data StewardshipDATAVERSITY
There are different ways to connect people with data stewardship responsibilities. You can assign people to be data stewards, identify people as data stewards or recognize people as data stewards. These approaches vary in several ways.
Join Bob Seiner for this month’s installment of the RWDG webinar series where he will compare and contrast three distinct approaches to data stewardship. The approach you select and follow will heavily influence how data governance results will be achieved.
In this webinar Bob will discuss:
- Three approaches to data stewardship
- The influence of each approach on program results
- Factors to assist in the selection of the approach to follow
- Obstacles to being successful with each approach
- Benefits of following each approach
Comparing Approaches to Data GovernanceDATAVERSITY
There are three distinct approaches to implementing Data Governance programs. There is the command-and-control approach, the traditional approach, and the non-invasive approach to implementing data governance. Selecting the best approach for your organization may be the most important data governance decision you make.

How to determine the best approach for your organization
Real-World Data Governance: How to Write a Data Steward Job DescriptionDATAVERSITY
A Data Steward Job Description is a list of job responsibilities that a Data Steward uses for tasks, or functions, and responsibilities of them in their everyday role. It includes to whom they report, the qualifications or skills needed by the person, and sometimes even includes a salary range. The job description of a Data Steward is not a new job description or different from their other job description. Is this confusing? We thought so.
This Real-World Data Governance webinar with Bob Seiner will focus on defining the typical responsibilities for every data steward all at once, no matter the industry, their role in the organization, or their role in the Data Governance program. Bob will focus on a list of competencies required for people to become great Data Stewards.
The session will include:
Components of a Data Steward Job Description
Seiner’s Rules for Becoming a Data Steward and How They Apply

In der Markenarbeit und im Recruiting ist Employer Branding wohl das Buzzword der letzten Jahre. Dabei rückt aus dem Fokus, was eigentlich am wichtigsten ist: Bewerber und Mitarbeiter von sich zu überzeugen. Ohne leere Versprechungen, hohle Phrasen oder peinliche Image-Videos.
Heute ist die Qualität der Beziehung zu den Zielgruppen entscheidend und damit gewinnen Identifikation und Authentizität aber auch Interaktion, Empathie und Erfindungsreichtum an Relevanz.
Es wird Zeit Employer Branding als Service zu denken. Wie das funktioniert, zeigen wir Ihnen in der neuen Ausgabe unserer Essenz „Identifikation statt Kommunikation“. Als Extra gibt es einen von uns für Sie entwickelten Praxis-Teil, in dem Sie selbst tätig werden können. Allein oder mit Ihren Kollegen. Viel Spaß!

The Components of Data Governance as Entities
The Entity Relationships of Data Governance
Attribution of Data Governance Entities
Using the Model as a Communications Tool
The Data Model as a Data Governance ArtifactDATAVERSITY
Data Modelling lies at the core of many data management programs. The basic definition of data and the conceptual, logical and physical models can be used in many ways and benefit many people. Some of the uses of the Data Model may not be obvious or may not presently be followed by your organization. Find out why.
Join Bob Seiner for this installment of the Real-World Data Governance webinar series where he will discuss the use of the Data Model as an artifact of Data Governance. Bob will look at the data models as a way to effectively communicate along the path to better data definition, production and usage.
In this webinar, Bob will discuss:
•Applying DG Best Practices to Data Modelling
•The Data Model as an Effective Communications Tool

Real-World Data Governance: A Different Way of Defining Data Stewards & Stewa...DATAVERSITY
What if everybody in your organization was considered a steward of the data they define, produce and use? What would it take to get that message across? How would we communicate with everybody, all the time, in an effective way … or this just a pipe dream? What exactly would it take to change the mindset of the organization as to the value of governance and stewardship of our most critical of assets? Bob Seiner thinks he has the answer. And he wants to share it with you during this installment of his Real-World Data Governance webinar series.
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?
Join 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.
In this session, Bob and Anthony will discuss:

- Deciding if the two disciplines are the same … or different
Real-World Data Governance Webinar: Agile and Data Governance - Bridging the GapDATAVERSITY
The concepts of both Data Governance and Agile Development continue to be applied in many organizations with differing levels of success. Nobody is surprised that Data Governance and Agile Methods can be at odds with each other. Perhaps they can partner to demonstrate success in both disciplines. Can Data Governance be applied to agile projects? Can Data Governance be applied in an agile way? These are two fascinating questions.
Join Robert S. Seiner for this RWDG Webinar to explore ideas for how to stay Agile in our Data Governance efforts and how to Govern Agile efforts. The subject of Agile always seems to spark interest from skeptics and believers alike. This session focuses on discovering ways of bridging the gap.

Real-World Data Governance: Data Governance ExpectationsDATAVERSITY
When starting a Data Governance program, significant time, effort and bandwidth is typically spent selling the concept of data governance and telling people in your organization what data governance will do for them. This may not be the best strategy to take. We should focus on making Data Governance THEIR idea not ours.
Shouldn’t the strategy be that we get the business people from our organization to tell US why data governance is necessary and what data governance will do for them? If only we could get them to tell us these things? Maybe we can.
Join Bob Seiner and DATAVERSITY for this informative Real-World Data Governance webinar that will focus on getting THEM to tell US where data governance will add value. Seiner will review techniques for acquiring this information and will share information of where this information will add specific value to your data governance program. Some of those places may surprise you.
Real-World Data Governance: Selecting the Right Data Governance ApproachDATAVERSITY
There are numerous approaches to delivering a Data Governance Program. Some people will say that no two programs look the same. Some of the approaches are stricter and more by the book – some may consider them to be about Command and Control. There are other approaches that focus more on formalizing accountability and that take a less invasive approach.
Join Bob Seiner for this installment of the Real-World Data Governance webinar series as he dissects several approaches to Data Governance and provides insight as to what may be the best approach for your organization. Bob will look at these approaches from a new program and existing program perspective.

Real-World Data Governance: Managing Governance Metadata for Mass ConsumptionDATAVERSITY
Metadata is a byproduct of a successful data governance program. More often than not, the success of a data governance program depends on the ability to record, validate and share metadata that is produced while implementing a data governance program. Metadata provides more than just the meaning of the data, the lineage of the data, and the rules associated with consuming the data. Governance metadata includes the people aspect of the data, who owns it (if you use that term), who stewards it, and who defines, produces and uses the data across the organization as well as other things.
Real-World DG Webinar: A Data Governance Framework for Success DATAVERSITY

Because every organization produces and propagates data as part of their day-to-day operations, data trends are becoming more and more important in the mainstream business world’s consciousness. For many organizations in various industries, though, comprehension of this development begins and ends with buzzwords: “Big Data,” “NoSQL,” “Data Scientist,” and so on. Few realize that all solutions to their business problems, regardless of platform or relevant technology, rely to a critical extent on the data model supporting them. As such, data modeling is not an optional task for an organization’s data effort, but rather a vital activity that facilitates the solutions driving your business. Since quality engineering/architecture work products do not happen accidentally, the more your organization depends on automation, the more important the data models driving the engineering and architecture activities of your organization. This webinar illustrates data modeling as a key activity upon which so much technology and business investment depends.
Specific learning objectives include:
- Understanding what types of challenges require data modeling to be part of the solution
- How automation requires standardization on derivable via data modeling techniques
- Why only a working partnership between data and the business can produce useful outcomes
Analytics play a critical role in supporting strategic business initiatives. Despite the obvious value to analytic professionals of providing the analytics for these initiatives, many executives question the economic return of analytics as well as data lakes, machine learning, master data management, and the like.
Technology professionals need to calculate and present business value in terms business executives can understand. Unfortunately, most IT professionals lack the knowledge required to develop comprehensive cost-benefit analyses and return on investment (ROI) measurements.
This session provides a framework to help technology professionals research, measure, and present the economic value of a proposed or existing analytics initiative, no matter the form that the business benefit arises. The session will provide practical advice about how to calculate ROI and the formulas, and how to collect the necessary information.
How a Semantic Layer Makes Data Mesh Work at ScaleDATAVERSITY
Data Mesh is a trending approach to building a decentralized data architecture by leveraging a domain-oriented, self-service design. However, the pure definition of Data Mesh lacks a center of excellence or central data team and doesn’t address the need for a common approach for sharing data products across teams. The semantic layer is emerging as a key component to supporting a Hub and Spoke style of organizing data teams by introducing data model sharing, collaboration, and distributed ownership controls.
This session will explain how data teams can define common models and definitions with a semantic layer to decentralize analytics product creation using a Hub and Spoke architecture.
Attend this session to learn about:
- The role of a Data Mesh in the modern cloud architecture.
- How a semantic layer can serve as the binding agent to support decentralization.
- How to drive self service with consistency and control.
Enterprise data literacy. A worthy objective? Certainly! A realistic goal? That remains to be seen. As companies consider investing in data literacy education, questions arise about its value and purpose. While the destination – having a data-fluent workforce – is attractive, we wonder how (and if) we can get there.
Kicking off this webinar series, we begin with a panel discussion to explore the landscape of literacy, including expert positions and results from focus groups:
- why it matters,
- what it means,
- what gets in the way,
- who needs it (and how much they need),
- what companies believe it will accomplish.
In this engaging discussion about literacy, we will set the stage for future webinars to answer specific questions and feature successful literacy efforts.
The Data Trifecta – Privacy, Security & Governance Race from Reactivity to Re...DATAVERSITY
Change is hard, especially in response to negative stimuli or what is perceived as negative stimuli. So organizations need to reframe how they think about data privacy, security and governance, treating them as value centers to 1) ensure enterprise data can flow where it needs to, 2) prevent – not just react – to internal and external threats, and 3) comply with data privacy and security regulations.
Working together, these roles can accelerate faster access to approved, relevant and higher quality data – and that means more successful use cases, faster speed to insights, and better business outcomes. However, both new information and tools are required to make the shift from defense to offense, reducing data drama while increasing its value.
Join us for this panel discussion with experts in these fields as they discuss:
- Recent research about where data privacy, security and governance stand
- The most valuable enterprise data use cases
- The common obstacles to data value creation
- New approaches to data privacy, security and governance
- Their advice on how to shift from a reactive to resilient mindset/culture/organization
You’ll be educated, entertained and inspired by this panel and their expertise in using the data trifecta to innovate more often, operate more efficiently, and differentiate more strategically.

It is a fascinating, explosive time for enterprise analytics.
It is from the position of analytics leadership that the enterprise mission will be executed and company leadership will emerge. The data professional is absolutely sitting on the performance of the company in this information economy and has an obligation to demonstrate the possibilities and originate the architecture, data, and projects that will deliver analytics. After all, no matter what business you’re in, you’re in the business of analytics.
The coming years will be full of big changes in enterprise analytics and data architecture. William will kick off the fifth year of the Advanced Analytics series with a discussion of the trends winning organizations should build into their plans, expectations, vision, and awareness now.
Too often I hear the question “Can you help me with our data strategy?” Unfortunately, for most, this is the wrong request because it focuses on the least valuable component: the data strategy itself. A more useful request is: “Can you help me apply data strategically?” Yes, at early maturity phases the process of developing strategic thinking about data is more important than the actual product! Trying to write a good (must less perfect) data strategy on the first attempt is generally not productive –particularly given the widespread acceptance of Mike Tyson’s truism: “Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face.” This program refocuses efforts on learning how to iteratively improve the way data is strategically applied. This will permit data-based strategy components to keep up with agile, evolving organizational strategies. It also contributes to three primary organizational data goals. Learn how to improve the following:
- Your organization’s data
- The way your people use data
- The way your people use data to achieve your organizational strategy
This will help in ways never imagined. Data are your sole non-depletable, non-degradable, durable strategic assets, and they are pervasively shared across every organizational area. Addressing existing challenges programmatically includes overcoming necessary but insufficient prerequisites and developing a disciplined, repeatable means of improving business objectives. This process (based on the theory of constraints) is where the strategic data work really occurs as organizations identify prioritized areas where better assets, literacy, and support (data strategy components) can help an organization better achieve specific strategic objectives. Then the process becomes lather, rinse, and repeat. Several complementary concepts are also covered, including:
- A cohesive argument for why data strategy is necessary for effective data governance
- An overview of prerequisites for effective strategic use of data strategy, as well as common pitfalls
- A repeatable process for identifying and removing data constraints
- The importance of balancing business operation and innovation
Who Should Own Data Governance – IT or Business?DATAVERSITY
The question is asked all the time: “What part of the organization should own your Data Governance program?” The typical answers are “the business” and “IT (information technology).” Another answer to that question is “Yes.” The program must be owned and reside somewhere in the organization. You may ask yourself if there is a correct answer to the question.
Join this new RWDG webinar with Bob Seiner where Bob will answer the question that is the title of this webinar. Determining ownership of Data Governance is a vital first step. Figuring out the appropriate part of the organization to manage the program is an important second step. This webinar will help you address these questions and more.
In this session Bob will share:
- What is meant by “the business” when it comes to owning Data Governance
- Why some people say that Data Governance in IT is destined to fail
- Examples of IT positioned Data Governance success
- Considerations for answering the question in your organization
- The final answer to the question of who should own Data Governance
It is clear that Data Management best practices exist and so does a useful process for improving existing Data Management practices. The question arises: Since we understand the goal, how does one design a process for Data Management goal achievement? This program describes what must be done at the programmatic level to achieve better data use and a way to implement this as part of your data program. The approach combines DMBoK content and CMMI/DMM processes – permitting organizations with the opportunity to benefit from the best of both. It also permits organizations to understand:
- Their current Data Management practices
- Strengths that should be leveraged
- Remediation opportunities
MLOps – Applying DevOps to Competitive AdvantageDATAVERSITY
MLOps is a practice for collaboration between Data Science and operations to manage the production machine learning (ML) lifecycles. As an amalgamation of “machine learning” and “operations,” MLOps applies DevOps principles to ML delivery, enabling the delivery of ML-based innovation at scale to result in:
Faster time to market of ML-based solutions
More rapid rate of experimentation, driving innovation
Assurance of quality, trustworthiness, and ethical AI
MLOps is essential for scaling ML. Without it, enterprises risk struggling with costly overhead and stalled progress. Several vendors have emerged with offerings to support MLOps: the major offerings are Microsoft Azure ML and Google Vertex AI. We looked at these offerings from the perspective of enterprise features and time-to-value.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
