We will be taking a deeper look into ARMA's Information Governance Implementation Model (IGIM) v.2.0, which is a valuable tool to connect the various stakeholders of IG inside any organization. The IGIM helps bring a shared understanding and unified implementation sequence that bridges policy and technology through eight critical steps. Additionally, we will look deeper at the new IG ISO Standard 24143_2022, a newly written and accepted standard establishing the concepts and principles for Information Governance.
