    How do we get started with Data Governance ?
    
    Getting Started involves the following Steps :-
    
    • Define Roles and Responsibilities
    • Look for suitable Candidates
    • Plan for interim results in 3 months and final results in 6 months
    How do I get a top-down view of Data Management in my organisation ? Answers to this question are at different levels :-
    • Data Governance at the top-level
    • Master Data Management at the mid-level
    • Data Integration at the mid-level
    • Data Owners and Sources at the lowest level
    • Information Catalogue mandated as the central repository of all this information
    • Appropriate procedures in place to control all of these factors.

    How do I verify the derivation of all data (the 'Data Lineage’) in my Reports ? This requires the use of an Information Catalogue that will record the source, processing steps and final delivery in a Report. The transformations in the processing Steps must be specified in both the processing language, for example SQL, and in plain, unambiguous English so that the Data Owner can sign-off on the Data Lineage.
