#ISCLondon – Governance 101

Governance is never ending… a road… a path to follow that never ends

1. What is Governance?

A strategy for control
– what needs to change
– when and how do you change it

What is Governance… NOT?
a technology
a document
a team of people
a methodology
…but these are all parts of it

2. What does it mean, being on the road?

Optimal system optimation:
value exceeds costs
sum result: measurable satisfaction

3. Governance Timeline

Current System Status
– what needs to improve
– how is the system performing

Planned improvement
– how to improve
– set limits of change, improve within the scope

4. Why Governance?

  • Information Governance – we know what information we have, where it is and how to find it
  • Project Governance
  • IT Assurance – compliance, security, …
  • Business Technology Alignment – mapping between business requirements and technical scope
  • Continuous Improvement – what, how and when can be identified

…all of this leads to measureable satisfaction

5. How to measure satisfaction?

2 groups involved:
– the organization -> satisfied when there is a net positive
– the users -> satisfied when they see their service levels met or improved upon

6. You need it early because…

Achieving Governance will affect your SharePoint system Design and Implementation

7. How to get Governance?

Governance Matrix = alignment: Definitions and Plans
Governance Team: cross-siloed, multi-disciplinary, authority, accountability
