Companies Still Struggle With Information Governance, Survey Finds
Despite years of talking about information governance and compliance, less than half of companies surveyed have a compliance culture — and many companies apparently have no governance strategy at all.
The Need for Information Governance Has Never Been Greater

Future Technology Be My Valentine
when it comes to information management solutions too often businesses accept a box, err, I mean a list of “appropriate” solutions providers from experts. Unfortunately, some of these lists are born from criteria often outdated and not indicative of what your organization is actually looking to achieve. Blindly following leaves companies to bend to the limitations of poorly selected solutions. I have witnessed amazing human work-arounds that serve solely to overcome such tragic shortcomings, I refer to these human heroes as our “ultimate integrators”. My advice, push to ensure your solutions can interoperate, play nice, and aid in empowering your entire business ecosystem. Your environment is unique and only you know the complete picture, while these lists can inform you, do not blindly accept them. Perform your due diligence and research to understand if a solution will grow with your business objectives and strategic roadmaps.
