Abstract

There are many important facets to consider when establishing an information governance (IG) program. Many of these facets include ensuring you have executive sponsorship to support your new IG program, locating a large need in the organization to justify your IG program creation (AKA the grand Cadillac, discussed later in this chapter), securing adequate funding and staff, creating an IG program charter and strategic plan, recruiting organization-wide support through tiered steering committees, procuring efficient technologies, obtaining appropriate IG related education and training, and considering current industry-wide IG trends. However, the two most important aspects one must have in place to initially begin the building and sustainment of an IG program are high level executive sponsorship and a shiny Cadillac or large need in the organization that an IG program can help meet. The first and foremost important facet is the executive sponsor.
