About the Presentation
World Vision is a Christian relief, development, and advocacy organization dedicated to working with children, families and communities to overcome poverty and injustice. World Vision recently built a global program management information system and created a data governance function to support managing competing requirements across an organization with a highly federated authority structure.
Its original vision for data governance was to move as quickly as possible to an enterprise program based on an initial business-case, strategy, and five-year roadmap. Severe budget cuts in 2008 forced the program to focus more narrowly on a single line of business, child sponsorship, but that accounts for more than 40% of World Vision’s work. The case study will explore how to shift focus to adding value quickly and embedding governance into business teams and governing data within a culture of federated authority.
