Show Notes

A recent CDO Magazine article begins, "Data governance, as it is currently practiced, is failing. Despite being positioned as essential for data quality, regulatory compliance, and strategic decision-making, data governance often falls short." In this episode we continue our exploration of how and why Data Governance isn't working out so well for most companies. We'll also check in on Todd Corporate as his confirmation hearing for Secretary of Data continues.

John and Mark are joined by Laura Madsen, author of Disrupting Data Governance. The idiot light is flashing. Do you see it? Does leadership know what to do about it? Do you?
