This session will include a moderated Q&A featuring questions from the live audience.

Data governance was first envisioned in the late ‘90s by most accounts. It was created to help control the data in a warehouse that was, at the time, typically millions of rows in a few dozen tables. When it was feasible to have a few people be the command-and-control center of the data governance universe.

Fast forward a few decades, when data is big, data domains are complex, and no one person could possibly own, steward, or control data. Where does that leave data governance programs? Why haven’t we modernized them along with our data repositories and analytics skills?

In this session, expert speaker Laura Madsen will discuss:

• The history of data governance—because if you don’t know it, you’re doomed to repeat it
• What’s broken in data governance programs today
• What data governance should actually deliver to your organization
• A modern organizational structure of data governance
• Three things to take back to your organization today
