In this session, we will break into small groups to explore ideas and share best practices around how we can better support women in data management and governance. This facilitated session will provide a platform for participants to workshop and exchange ideas on what defines a successful mentorship initiative. Attendees will have the opportunity to brainstorm future educational topics. Additionally, participants will be asked to share a best practice or success story highlighting the transformative role mentorship can play for women in the field. Join us to contribute, learn, and shape the blueprint for fostering mentorship excellence in data management and governance.

ABOUT TODAY'S PROGRAM:
We at DATAVERSITY have noticed a dramatic increase in women becoming data practitioners over the years. To better understand how we can better support this growing demographic, we held a special interest group at Enterprise Data World Fall in Anaheim, California. From that discussion, we have started building education, networking, and training opportunities, and are excited to be producing our first Women in Data Management and Governance event!
This event is included in your Enterprise Data World registration, and all are welcome.
