2. Why do we need a DG organization?
The first thing many business and IT professionals ask when taking on the responsibility of a data governance initiative is…
“Where do I start?”
There are a number of places online where professionals can go to read articles and white papers but…
nowhere to go to:
Network, learn,
share experiences, templates, and
work products with other professionals!
>>>
That’s why the
Data Governance
Professionals Organization (DGPO)
is being formed!!
>>>

Provide a forum that fosters discussion and networking for members
