In many organizations, the mission and messages of the information governance (or records and information management) program are not effectively communicated to staff, leaders, contractors, and other stakeholders. There are many reasons for this, including the priority (or lack thereof) given to your program, communication skills, budget constraints, and more.

This session offers practical ideas, tools, and methods you can seek out and use within your organization to improve the odds of having your IG voices heard above the roar. It also explores how (especially in shifting regulatory and operational environments) IG and RIM messaging may need to align more directly with organizational mission and operational effectiveness, not just compliance.
