Thank you Sherry. These 5 roles only outline some of the most unique and unusual ones I’ve encountered around data governance, but there are more other traditional ones which we should all be aware of. These can be split based on their different levels within the organization: executive, strategic, tactical, and operational. Some examples of these roles are: data steward (4 different types), data custodian, data governance lead, data owner, data governance council member and many others.

I really like the breakdown and link to various data steward roles. Makes so much sense! If more companies adopted this type of breakdown, I believe there would be less of a battle over who owns what, who should make changes and updates and where the business and IT fall into the data governance process. And I believe it would be much easier for everyone to see how many people/areas it takes to run a successful data governance oriented organization.
