Data is one of the most precious assets a business possesses, yet managing it can be challenging when multiple stakeholders are involved. To meet these challenges, companies require a data governance program consisting of individuals from diverse backgrounds and expertise who can create strategies to foster collaboration, transparency and accountability within a team environment. To guarantee its success, this organization structure must reflect each member of this group – for instance incorporating a responsibility assignment matrix such as RACI (responsible, accountable, consulted and informed) can keep everyone on track during this process.
