Description: The ‘Shared Responsibility’ in the context of data governance refers to the principle that all stakeholders, including organizations, employees, and users, share the responsibility for effectively managing and protecting data. This approach recognizes that data governance is not just a task for the IT department or a specific group, but involves all levels of the organization. Shared responsibility implies that each individual has a role to play in managing data quality, security, and privacy. This fosters a culture of collaboration and awareness about the importance of data, promoting responsible practices in its use and handling. Furthermore, this concept extends to collaborative work methodologies, where team members work together on the same tasks, sharing not only the workload but also the responsibility for quality and problem-solving. This approach improves overall project quality and creates a learning and continuous improvement environment, where team members can benefit from each other’s skills and perspectives.
