DAM Good Governance – Why have it and why is it so Important to Get Right

23 June, 13:50 PM BST

Governance underpins your organisation’s DAM and is the crucial process that holds your DAM together. Ignoring Governance is no longer an option and, what’s more, adherence to Governance regulations must be a priority as more and more organisations become truly data driven.

Getting Governance wrong is a costly mistake.

There is no escaping it: the full value of your data and content is vital, and Governance is the framework which ensures that program goals are met both during DAM implementation and in the future.

To be effective, Governance must:

  • Be considered as a holistic corporate objective
  • Establish policies, procedures, and training for the management of data across the organisation
  • Reach all levels of the organisation
  • Ensure that your metadata – business needs, user needs, and language change – must stay relevant

This session, moderated by John Horodyski, Managing Director, Insights and Analytics at Salt Flats, will be an informative and engaging discussion on the who, what, how and why of Governance focusing on key drivers including:

  • How to do Governance
  • Is there more than one Governance?
  • Communications, transparency, and accountability
  • Governance and DEI (Diversity, Equity & Inclusion) 
  • Challenges and success stories

Great event - Provided the opportunity to learn from customer journeys from a variety of organisations from different market segments. We came away with lots of great questions for ourselves which will be useful during our implementation.

HS DAM events provide me with the opportunity to broaden my horizons and think beyond to an "Omnichannel" DAM world that connects all the dots; video, image, text and more.
