The essential guide to effective IG strategy and practice Information Governance is a highly practical and deeply informative handbook for the implementation of effective Information Governance (IG) procedures and strategies.

This book offers big-picture guidance on effective IG, with particular emphasis on document and records management best practices. Step-by-step strategy development guidance is backed by expert insight and crucial advice from a leading authority in the field.

Information Governance distills the best of IG into a primer for effective action.
