IT Governance Expert to Present IT Governance at the Management Information Systems Research Center

Zeba Consulting, a California consulting firm, announces they will be sending Dr. Chip Council, IT Governance Expert, to speak about Agile IT and Data Governance programs to the Management Information Systems Research Center (MISRC).

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release) - Oct 21, 2008 -
Zeba Consulting’s principal, Ravi Grewal, today announced that Zeba will be sending Dr. Chip Council, Data Governance Practice Manager, to present Agile IT and Data Governance to the MISRC.

The name of the presentation is "Agile Data and IT Governance." An agile approach to governance requires the coordination of many people, with other "day jobs," across organizational silos. Instead of employing a top-down, "all or nothing" approach, which requires a complete shift in corporate culture, and is prone to failure, this approach uses an iterative project framework, choosing a smaller data set, such as customer satisfaction, and focusing efforts on investigating and fixing them.  

This more cost-effective, iterative approach enables organizations to secure immediate results within weeks or months instead of years, while putting into place the foundation needed to help manage data quality across all systems. It also allows them to keep an eye on the quarterly revenue ball while making gradual improvements that will ultimately have a favorable impact on the bottom line.  All organizations are different and require different approaches.  At the end of this seminar, participants will be able to decide if this approach would work for them and begin the process.  

The seminar will be delivered via webcast and in person at the Carlson School of Management first floor auditorium, 321 19th Ave. S. Minneapolis on the West Bank of the University of Minnesota. The MISRC URL is http://www.misrc.umn.edu/

Dr. Chip Council, an expert Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT), Certified Information Security Manager (CISM), and Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA).  Council is the known for his experience building IT Governance programs in the higher education, retail, credit card, and Internet industries.  He is now building an online community of experts from specialties such as Information Security, IT Governance, Data Governance, Metadata Management, and Risk Management firms.”
