In today’s cost-conscious environment, many records management programs are being scaled back. Yet leading organizations are seizing this moment to transform traditional records practices into broader, more valuable information governance initiatives. Rather than merely defending budgets, information governance professionals are successfully repositioning their programs as strategic drivers of innovation, productivity, and business value.

This webinar contains practical, real-world strategies for gaining executive buy-in and investment in information governance. You’ll learn how to:

• Translate the impact of information governance into the language executives understand: productivity, risk reduction, and operational efficiency.

• Show how information governance enables innovation, including the responsible use of generative AI.

• Embed information governance practices seamlessly into employees’ everyday workflows.

• Highlight case studies of organizations that have successfully upgraded from basic records management to impactful information governance programs.

Many organizations suffer from a culture of employees ‘saving everything forever,’ leading to the over-retention of vast amounts of electronic data. These ingrained employee habits not only pose privacy, security, and compliance risks, but also inflate storage costs and increase eDiscovery pain.

Traditional approaches to curb document hoarding tend to fall short and result in what is known as ‘underground archiving,’ where employees hide data in insecure locations to avoid automatic deletion. Attempts to change these stubborn behaviors often result in frustration.

Achieving effective and compliant retention is entirely within reach with the right strategies, policies, processes, messages, and mindset. In this webinar, we share practical, real-world strategies to:

• Create policies and processes that drive data minimization, not thwart it.

• Implement effective employee behavior change management strategies.

• Leverage technology (which most companies already own) to reduce over-retention of files and emails effectively.

• Shift the perception of legal and compliance teams from the data deletion police to employee productivity leaders.

The session features actionable ways to drive employees to save the right information for the right amount of time and not longer.
