Crowd-Sourcing Data Governance

If you don’t remember The Little Red Hen, a chicken found grain and asked the other farm animals to help throughout the journey of processing that grain. The hen asked if they would plant the seeds, help with the harvest, make the flour, and finally bake the bread, but the other animals refused to help until they could smell the goodness in the oven. At that point, they were more than happy to eat the bread. After 10+ years of architecting Data Governance Programs from scratch through maturity, I have found a lot of similarities to this fable. .
