Description:

Hosted By: Lou Rosenfeld

Organizations spend a lot of time debating over who gets to make decisions about the nature of websites, apps, and content. Sometimes the debates are so fierce that organizations are almost at a standstill when it comes to digital development or they find that their organization is creating a cacophony of digital artifacts, a big dis-integrated mess that leaves users frustrated and sometimes leads to out and out business liability. Organizations like these need to take the time to clarify role sand responsibilities for digital development—this is the domain of digital governance.

In this webcast, you will learn:

  • The basic definition of digital governance
  • The four steps involved in designing a digital governance framework
  • Good practices for digital team structure
