A few tools for the future:

- Gamification / Human Focused Design

- Collaboration

- Crowdsourcing

Intrapreneurship: the act of behaving like

an entrepreneur while working within a large organization.

“Numbers are the musical notes with which the symphony

of the universe is written.” Adam Spencer

What we covered:

• The Data Jungle and the functionality/capability

Toolbox

• Orchestration (DG) Programs need to be holistic

• Consider using Human Focused Design,

Collaboration and ‘Crowdsourcing’

I am interested in networking with like minded folks

that want to develop a Human Focused Design to

achieve a Holistic Data Governance Approach.

Please contact me if you are interested in

participating.

You may have heard:

“We have installed Hadoop and loaded data. We just need to add

DG/DQ.”

“We need the tech team to fix the data first.”

“We need the DG team to fix the DQ issues.”

“We need DG but have to implement as part of testing as we do not have

a budget.”

“We will just make some of the PMs/BAs Data Stewards/Custodians.”

“The business doesn't have time to provide input to fix any identified

issues. We'll load it and fix it later.”
