Information governance can be expensive, but not adopting compliance programs, in the end, can cost far more, cautions Christian Liipfert in “Business Case,” in the current issue of Law Technology News magazine. In the article, Liipfert argues that to sell information governance to upper management at your organization, risk management leaders need to articulate how these protocols will actually benefit the organization’s goals, and have a strong return on investment.
As you start, remember that an information governance program is a major initiative for any organization. “Setting up a comprehensive program within a company will touch every employee and agent of the organization, be it a company, law firm, or governmental entity,” says Liipfert, a Houston-based consultant. Leaders should remember that business and legal department agendas and goals may not be completely congruent, he notes.
