 <p>Companies need growth for survival. Companies cannot grow simply through cost reduction and reengineering efforts. Innovation is needed and someone must manage these innovation projects. Over the past two decades, there has been a great deal of literature published on innovation and innovation management. Converting a creative idea into reality requires projects and some form of project management. Unfortunately, innovation projects, which are viewed as strategic projects, may not be able to be managed using the traditional project management philosophy we teach in our project management courses. There are different skill sets needed, different tools, and different life-cycle phases. Innovation varies from industry to industry and even companies within the same industry cannot come to an agreement on how innovation project management should work.</p>

<h2>Innovation Project Management: On-Demand</h2>
 <p>Companies need growth for survival. Companies cannot grow simply through cost reduction and reengineering efforts. This program describes the relationship that needs to be established between innovation, business strategy, and project management to turn a creative idea into a reality. We will explore the importance of identifying the components of an innovative culture, existing differences, challenges, and the new set of skills needed in innovation project management.</p>
 <p>Companies need growth for survival. Companies cannot grow simply through cost reduction and reengineering efforts. Innovation is needed and someone must manage these innovation projects. Over the past two decades, there has been a great deal of literature published on innovation and innovation management. Converting a creative idea into reality requires projects and some form of project management. Unfortunately, innovation projects, which are viewed as strategic projects, may not be able to be managed using the traditional project management philosophy we teach in our project management courses. There are different skill sets needed, different tools, and different life-cycle phases. Innovation varies from industry to industry and even companies within the same industry cannot come to an agreement on how innovation project management should work.</p>

But that can be easier said than done. These days many networking events still aren&rsquo;t taking place and those that are are online and it&rsquo;s very hard to get a chance to speak let alone get advice for your challenges.</p>

Untangle your Data Governance issue and collaborate with your peers during this one-day Mastermind
Discuss Data Governance approaches with people who get it
Are you struggling with a Data Governance issue and wish you had a team of other Data Governance professionals you could bounce it around with?
You’ve done Data Governance training and you know what you’re focusing on. While your team is supportive, you spend a lot of time dealing with, and driving forward, culture change, managing stakeholders, and fielding questions from people who have their own priorities and now need to do this ‘Data Governance stuff’ on top. 
It would be nice, once in a while, to have a conversation about how to achieve something free from internal issues. You want to talk about best practices and get some alternative ideas.
That’s what my Data Governance Mastermind gives you: space to reflect with the support of your peers and practical solutions you can implement.
What is a mastermind?
Mastermind groups are the definition of ‘sharing is caring’. It’s you and your fellow peers – people who do what you do - gathering to brainstorm, problem solve, set goals and be each other’s support network.
At the Data Governance Mastermind, you will meet and learn from other people implementing Data Governance initiatives. 
It’s a one-day event, on Zoom. One of the benefits of attending is you’ll get 30 minutes in the ‘hot seat’ where you can share something you’re struggling with and get input from the group. 
What you can expect during the day
Discussions about different aspects of Data Governance and the opportunity to share what’s worked for you.
Tailored advice specific to your situation from me.
Insights from other people implementing Data Governance about what’s worked for them, what hasn’t worked, and how they have tackled issues.
30 minutes in the hot seat so you can share something you need help with and get practical suggestions from the rest of the delegates.
Time to reflect and share learnings from discussions so you have your key takeaways written down, ready to take back to work with you.
Get to know other Data Governance professionals and build a support network
Get an action plan and confidence to take your next steps with Data Governance
Get ready to discover new ways of approaching your Data Governance challenges, while getting to know professionals from a range of industries.
You will:
Get a clear action plan to take away with you to tackle your specific Data Governance issues.
Develop a wider network of supportive Data Governance professionals, people got your back and will be available to continue to network and ask advice or in the future.
Leave with the confidence that you're not alone in tackling these issues. There are other people going through similar experiences that are willing to help you out.
Is attending a Mastermind right for me? 
Every individual's Data Governance journey is unique. Take my scorecard to determine if my Mastermind programme is the right fit for you and will effectively support your specific needs. You can also find out more about the day on my website.

A day of Data Governance, support, networking, and answering your questions. Join me for my 1 Day Data Governance Mastermind where you get allocated time to get specific advice on your current Data Governance challenges and get the chance to network with others in similar situations.

1 Day Data Governance Mastermind

1 Day Data Governance Mastermind Workshop

This course will be delivered using a mixture of pre-recorded modules, live Zoom calls and online collaborative tools.
Exciting news! My popular 'Getting Started in Data Governance' course is making it's way across the pond! Due to numerous requests, I'm thrilled to announce that I will be hosting a U.S. edition of the course.
The course will be conducted virtually over two days, running from 4 PM to 8 PM (UK time) each day. Feel free to convert the time to your local time zone.
This training isn't exclusive to U.S. attendees - it's open to anyone who can attend during these hours.
Here are some key details about the course:
One of the biggest challenges with Data Governance is knowing where to even start.
There’s lots of advice available online and in books, but how do you take this huge quantity of sometimes conflicting theory and turn it into something practical? You might have tried sharing some of this theory with your senior stakeholders but you are struggling to articulate what it means to them.
My 'Getting Started in Data Governance' course simplifies the complex concepts involved in designing and implementing a Data Governance Framework. Here's what you can expect... 
Demystify the concept of Data Governance by breaking down its components and addressing common misconceptions. You will gain insights into its vital relationship with Data Quality, discovering how the two interplay to drive organisational success.
The fundamental building blocks of a Data Governance Framework. You'll learn how to construct a Framework that aligns with your organisation's goals and structure.
Practical implementation strategies. We understand that translating theory into action can be challenging, so we'll provide you with actionable steps and best practices to embed your Data Governance Framework into your organisation.
The essential skills for success in Data Governance. From communication to collaboration, you'll discover the competencies needed to navigate this dynamic field and drive meaningful change within your organisation.
In addition, everyone who attends this course will get a copy of the actual checklist that I use when helping clients design and implement Data Governance Frameworks.
The course is ideal for Data Governance Managers and their teams who:
Wonder how to get their Data Governance initiative started
Want to validate what they have done so far
Are experiencing challenges with their Data Governance initiative
