Abstract

This paper explains why data and its governance as part of corporate governance are important to most, if not all, organisations, and is something that leaders and directors need to embrace. The paper highlights some key themes affecting the governance of data, such as trust and social licence, mass customisation, an increasing number of data breaches and technology. It then follows with a call for leaders and directors to help shape and influence the direction technology takes by providing examples played out in the media of innovation that have privacy at their core, as well as those that provide more challenges and grey areas. The final part of the paper provides guidance to readers on what leaders and directors can do to help build trust. This will include looking at culture, risk management frameworks, accountability, monitoring key indicators, working and collaborating with regulators.
