Data Governance is a multi-year journey that follows a hype curve. Data Stewards invest more time initially to curate Metadata and build a Community of Practice. Their time commitment reduces significantly once we reach steady state and the program maturity increases.
In the early stages of a Data Governance program, there are many challenges. This can be attributed to the lack of Data Stewards in organizations who are also responsible for other roles like IT, Security, etc. Addressing these challenges will help build your team faster and ensure you have buy-in from all stakeholders.
Once you reach steady state, there is less work required from your data stewards because people are now familiar with the process and they have already built consensus on how they want to handle data governance issues going forward.
The chart in the image outlines the entire journey of this multi year process.
