Data governance is far from anyone’s favorite topic, but at Infostrux it’s the superpower behind launching successful AI initiatives. In this episode of the Data T podcast, CEO Pierre Jr Cliche joins Coalesce co-founders Armon Petrossian and Satish Jayanthi to share how Infostrux rides today’s GenAI wave to get buy-in for data governance projects most execs would otherwise overlook: data cataloging, data lineage, and building data transformation frameworks that turn messy data into governed, production-ready assets. Learn how to build a value narrative that makes data governance feel like a growth and innovation enabler rather than a cost center, why a catalog and clear data roles are essential for AI accuracy, and how to get leadership genuinely excited about investing in “unsexy” data work. Key Topics The shift in data governance perception The role of AI in data governance Why the majority of Gen AI projects fail How to get stakeholders’ buy-in for data governance initiatives Top challenges for data governance and the tools to solve them Resources: About Coalesce: Coalesce podcast archive (The Data T):
