"Working over several decades with data, it was refreshing to read
this book on data governance, which clearly explains evolving ISO
standards, while recognizing that data are now very connected and
valuable assets. This book, through diverse examples, illustrates
the policies and processes needed to protect and exploit data
during its lifecycle, from creation/collection to disposal."
*Independent Business and Information Management Consultant,
Founding Member & Director, BeLux chapter of DAMA*
“A highly practical journey into the need for demonstrable
accountability, meaningful stakeholder engagement, and sound data
governance across the whole lifecycle based on internationally
recognised and adaptable standards, as a business imperative for
better decision making. A must read for any digitally and socially
responsible leader who navigates the intended and unintended
outcomes of their data, technology, people, and ethics, on their
business, customers, and wider society."
*CEO, Beyond Reach Consulting Limited – a tech ethics
consultancy*
"Data Governance and Data Strategy are two of the hottest topics in
data management today. This insightful and wide ranging book,
tracing the history of data and its management from Ancient Babylon
to Artificial Intelligence, is a must read for all who seek success
in their own data journeys."
*Principal Consultant, Global Data Strategy Ltd*
"The value of data has been well recognized but people may fall
into the pitfall of only looking into details and not seeing the
big picture. This book provides the guidance of defining a data
strategy and its implementation systematically, emphasizing the
aspects that are likely to be overlooked, like risks and threats.
It is a handbook that is helping me to design the digital platform
for my company."
*Vice President, Easy Visible Supply Chain Management Co.,
Ltd.*
"I found the book’s approach to be refreshing.... It states the
importance of governance at the core of managing data, and
re-enforces the forgotten responsibility in data management as a
discipline that is critical to any organisation."
*Honorary Associate, University of Technology - Sydney Australia*
