Resources like this book are scarce, and we have to navigate through trial and error to discover effective approaches. One aspect I particularly appreciated was the emphasis on pragmatism from the outset - governance should not rely on a single individual, as their departure could jeopardize the entire system. The book’s versatility is its greatest strength, as it caters not only to those directly managing governance but also to potential stewards, as well as other data users and leaders.

When I ‘cracked’ this book open, I thought I would read a few pages, instead, I was pulled in quickly and finished it in one sitting. I shook my head frequently as this reminded me of my career in data. When I started, we didn’t have books like this. We had to struggle through trial and error to find the right approaches. The thing I liked the most is the pragmatism in the beginning - governance cannot be dependent on one person - if that person leaves, you lose your governance. I have seen this happen too many times.It is the stewardship the ensures longevity of a governance program.I liked how Pui drew my attention, it was like a conversation between the pages and my brain, reflecting on the foundation of stewardship and the challenges in growing this critical muscle in an organization. The best part of the book is that it can be used not only by someone managing governance, but also applies to potential stewards and other data users and leaders.I am happy to have found this book and plan on sharing with others building the foundation for data literacy which leads to performant stewards. It plays across a number of scenarios I have seen across my career. Developing stewards and data stewardship can be difficult. As you begin the journey, it is difficult to show the destination. Rarely can you find examples of stewardship and governance, this is why theory does not work. This is a practical overview that can be used flexibly and will drive others to want governance and participate in the stewardship of data.

There is a lot of empathy in the book with the reality of being a data steward in an organisation, the challenges involved, and the roadblocks. Great coverage of changing culture, using frameworks, guardrails, and technology to transform an organisation over time. It's a good reference for ideas to implement and I would highly recommended the book for anybody who has to deal with data.
