    • Define and manage the governance cadence - forums, working groups, reporting cycles - and maintain decision logs that keep decision-making transparent and consistent.
    • Act as the first escalation point for cross-company governance conflicts, engaging executive-level stakeholders where decisions cannot be settled locally.
    • Promote the effective use of governed data assets and integrate governance into enterprise transformation programs.
