Scenario
4

“Buy in” is misleading
Business areas do
programs; e.g. Lean, Six
Sigma, etc.
The CxO already
assumes governance
and controls are in place
IT might be able to do DG
but business area are
better positioned

Alignment affects sustainability
CEO etc. offer support:
 Visibly supports strategy and goals
 Proves it does not cost more than it can
help bring in
 Does not add to risk, or eliminates it
CEO gives NO sustaining support if:
• It is perceived as IT-driven “Data improvement”
• Holds back strategic initiatives
• Middle management can get away with
resistance© The Jetsons and related works are
