 ty.net/sessionPop.cfm?confid=121&proposalid=9448\nThis is a case study in h
 ow one organization was able to achieve the seemingly impossible. We will t
 ell the story of a journey which successfully fast-tracked the implementati
 on of a data governance program by starting out small, showing incremental 
 value, and in turn, achieving business buy-in while building the &lsquo;dat
 a&rsquo; momentum one track at a time. We will share lessons learned, do&rs
 quo;s and don&rsquo;ts, benefits, and key success drivers from our journey.
  Many organizations don&rsquo;t have the luxury of standing up a data gover
 nance program in isolation, let alone building a data railroad. The ability
  to move the company to the &lsquo;right side of the tracks&rsquo; laid in 
 this team&rsquo;s ability to show the business value derived from data gove
 rnance, while in parallel establishing the process and procedures associate
 d with the governance program. The data governance team profiled in this st
 udy started with a one track mind: introduce data governance while simultan
 eously showing the benefit of this new concept across the organization. The
  team began this process by getting initial executive sponsorship, standing
  up data domains, and aligning the organization&rsquo;s data, by data eleme
 nt, to these domains. New in-house processes were introduced and standardiz
 ed to support these domains, and buy-in from stakeholders was provided as c
 learly articulated business benefit was demonstrated.
