This timely presentation will focus on shifting responsibilities for data and information management roles. “Traditionally,” “This is an important question,” says Gwen Thomas, President of the Data Governance Institute and host of this event. “Think about our current world-wide economic situation. Around the globe, data workers were aware of quality issues with the information used to make critical corporate financial decisions. But often, there was no mechanism to communicate their concerns to decision-makers.” “We should also ask,” says Smith, “whether business data and information consumers are solely responsible for ethical breaches in the usage of data. Should data managers wash their hands of how information is used, or is it time to consider an expansion of roles and responsibilities?” This webinar will be available at no charge to both DGS-COP members and non-members; This event will take place between 11:00 AM and noon, New York time (GMT-5) on Tuesday, January 27, 2009.
