MinterEllison: Driving a Cultural Transformation to Optimise Data Insights and Governance Outcomes

In an era where data-driven organisations win, enterprise-wide adoption of data governance and management frameworks is a strategic imperative.

A strong data governance program is designed to provide coordinated oversight of data-related decisions throughout an organisation. A data governance program ensures confidentiality, integrity, and availability and helps inform decision making – allowing your business to remain ahead of the curve in a competitive environment.

However ensuring the integrity and transparency of data is often a challenge, especially when up against a rapidly evolving technology landscape and complex infrastructure and processes, which is why MinterEllison, Australia’s largest provider of legal services, has embarked on a three year data management transformation journey. 

Ahead of the Data Governance and Management Summit 2019 we chat to Shaheen Saud, Head of Data and Analytics at multinational professional service provider, MinterEllison. In this article Shaheen discusses the key challenges of data governance and management facing the professional services provider and delves into how they’re working to overcome these challenges through new governance frameworks and a cultural transformation that will build the foundation for future business growth.
