Is your data governance strategy a bottleneck or a catalyst? In this episode of Hyperight Data Talks, we sat down with Winfried Adalbert Etzel, Data Governance Professional, who breaks down why the traditional “Data Governance 1.0” model is failing in the age of AI and Decentralized Data.
We move beyond the “policing” mindset to explore Data Governance 2.0- a tactical, human-centric approach that treats data as a high-value corporate asset. This discussion provides a practical blueprint for any leader looking to modernize their data operations and bridge the gap between abstract strategy and operational reality. By focusing on federated models and the socio-technical connection between people and tools, Etzel offers a roadmap for scaling AI and treating data as a high-value asset rather than an IT byproduct.
Winfried Etzel, a key figure in the Nordic data community, will be taking the stage at the upcoming Data Innovation Summit. In his session, “The Automation Paradox: Navigating the Future of Embedded Data Governance“, he will tackle the growing pressure organizations face to automate everything, from infrastructure to governance-as-code.
Join him at Stockholm in May to discover how to bridge the gap between automation and accountability.
