What is the Data Governance in Modern Enterprise course about?
Even in mature organizations, data governance stalls due to fragmented ownership, unclear workflows, and misalignment between policy and platform. Leaders are expected to deliver compliance and agility simultaneously, but few have a structured, repeatable method to do so. This creates delays, erodes trust in data, and increases operational risk.
