Highly Awaited Follow-Up:
"Non-Invasive Data Governance Strikes Again" by Robert S. Seiner

I work as a consultant and support companies in establishing data governance in their organizations. That's how I got to know Robert S. Seiner (nickname: Bob) personally during a data governance project at a customer in the USA. Bob is considered the "guru" for Data Governance in the US (and abroad) and I was impressed with his framework and the implementation of the Non-Invasive Data Governance organization.
