PLI Ever Current Podcast Episode 21: Bill Tanenbaum and Robert (Bob) Seiner, the President of KIK Consulting and Educational Services, talk about how data does not manage itself, and explain the discipline of data governance to a legal audience. Bob defines data governance as “the execution and authority and enforcement of authority of the management of data.” He explains the framework he developed, “Non-Invasive Data Governance,” which breaks down silos in corporate data operations in order to coordinate the activities done by different data officers in the company. KIK advises law firms on developing formal data governance structures and Bob shares his insights on that.
