November 2005: Governance models

 Purchase an archived recording with accompanying slides- $50 USD

Description:

Your company has recognized the value of classification. Great! Now, how do you manage it?  You've begun the derivation process or been through one or more iterations.  But things change -- products, markets, offerings, competition, customer needs and on and on.  New stakeholders want to apply their perspective to the taxonomy, or try to develop their own branches and nodes to reflect their audience needs. There is a pressure from the business to change the taxonomy and cause it to splinter and diverge.  Subject matter experts, new hires, and sponsors all think their view is best.

In this session we'll learn how tow large organizations deal with governance policies, and processes.

We'll hear Christine Connors of Raytheon and Marti Heyman of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu about how they deal with governance and how governance policies will vary depending on the phase of the taxonomy program (creation, implementation, maintenance) and the size of the project.  We'll look at:

  • Governance Policies 
  • Change Control Boards
  • Tools and Techniques for teams
  • Budgets and Funding Strategy
  • Standards Creation Processes
