 versity.net/sessionPop.cfm?confid=165&proposalid=16410\nIn an era where das
 hboards, metrics, and automation tend to dominate people’s workspaces
 , organizations risk losing the human element that makes data governance st
 ick – trust, context, and real-world connection to the company’
 s mission. This Special Interest Group explores how intentional roundi
 ng in person (i.e., engaging directly with data consumers, stewards, and op
 erational teams) can transform the practice of digital data governance from
  an exercise in compliance to a culture of shared ownership and accountabil
 ity. \n\nDrawing inspiration from clinical rounding models and field-b
 ased engagement, we’ll discuss how face-to-face interactions help unc
 over why policies aren’t followed, unmask hidden friction points, and
  reinforce data governance as a collaborative practice vs. a top-down manda
 te. The presentation will include case-based examples showing measurab
 le improvements in policy adherence when in-person rounding is complemented
  with digital monitoring and highlight tools utilized to improve data fluen
 cy and build stakeholder trust. \n\nAttendees will learn a practical f
 ramework for designing and sustaining a “Data Governance Rounding&rdq
 uo; program, including a scheduling cadence and feedback loops to inform da
 ta fluency and policy evolution. \nKey Takeaways:\n\n
 How human connection reinforces digital efficacy.\n
 A model for “Data Governance Rounding” that integrates feedback
  into data fluency bolstering and policy refinement.\n
 Metrics for evaluating trust and adherence improvements. \n
 How in-person meetings can help uncover gaps in the data. \n
  \n\nSpecial interest group (SIG) discussions are small group conversa
 tions on topics that are new or specific to a smaller audience segment. The
  format is casual and without any formal presentation, and the objecti
 ve is to engage all participants in an exchange of ideas, questions, and ad
 vice, so please come with a willingness to participate in the conversation.
