Scenario:

You have recently been hired as a Chief Information Governance Officer (CIGO) at a large company (You may choose your industry). This is a newly created position and department within the organization that was founded on the need to coordinate all areas of the business and to provide governance of the information. You will need to hire for all positions within your new department.

The company has been in business for more than 50 years and in this time has collected vast amounts of data. Much of this data has been stored in hard copy format in filing cabinets at an offsite location but in recent times, collected business data is in electronic format stored in file shares. Customer data is being stored in a relational database, but the lack of administration has caused data integrity issues such as duplication. There are currently no policies in place to address the handling of data, business or customer. The company also desires to leverage the marketing power of social media, but has no knowledge of the types of policies or legal issues they would need to consider. You will also need to propose relevant metrics that should be collected to ensure that the information governance program is effective.

The CEO and Board of Directors have tasked you to develop a proposal (paper) that will give them the knowledge needed to make informed decisions on an enterprise-wide Information Governance program, addressing (at a minimum) all of these issues, for the company. 

Requirements:

The paper should include the following sections:

a. Program and technology recommendations, including:

1. Metrics

2. Data that matters to the executives in that industry, the roles for those executives, and some methods for getting this data into their hands.

3. Regulatory, security, and privacy compliance expectations for your company

4. Email and social media strategy

5. Cloud Computing strategy

b. Conclusion

c. References

Notes:

1. You must include at least two figures or tables. These must be of your own creation. Do not copy from other sources.

2. Must cite at least 5 peer reviewed scholarly journals.

3. This paper should be in APA format and should be a minimum of 4 pages in length

Failover and Disaster Recovery

Software Development History Presentation (6-8) slides

Assignment Instructions

Create a narrated 6-8 slide presentation in Microsoft PowerPoint® in which you discuss the aspect of software development history that you found most interesting during this week’s learning. Be sure to discuss whether this historical aspect has a continuing influence in today’s software development environment in terms of core programming concepts such as repetition structures, decision structures, arrays, functions, and variables. For example, think about how the shift from procedural programming to object-oriented programming changed or did not change how the core concepts were handled. When composing your presentation, be sure to use Standard English and a highly developed and sustained viewpoint and purpose. The communication of your presentation should be highly ordered, logical and unified.

Additionally, one slide must be devoted to some aspect of software development history demonstrating the benefits of multiculturalism and diversity in a global context. How has software development evolved as we have become more globalized and how has it influenced the growth and change in software development?

Your presentation must have narration throughout as if you were delivering it in a live, professional setting. Focus on your word choice. Your oral delivery techniques, including word choice and oral expressiveness, should display exceptional content, organization, and style, while leading the audience to a dynamic and supported conclusion.

What To Do With “Interesting” Families:

Of course, everyone’s family is interesting! J However, there are family circumstances that may complicate your task. Remember, however, that NOT having information is equally as important as having it. If you don’t have/can’t get information about certain family members, or certain types of health problems, you can always discuss how that lack of information affects you and/or your family.

If you are adopted, you may or may not have much information about your biological family. That’s OK. The family you have grown up in has probably had far more impact on you than the genes or biological traits you may have inherited from your biological family.

If you have step-family members, they have had an affect on you, too. Look into the learned/modeled aspect of health. What have they taught you? What did you pick up from just being around them?

Paper Structure:

Introduction:

*Explain why this assignment is an important and relevant one to do for this class.

*Describe how you collected the information for this paper. Do you think this was a good way to collect the

information? 

*Are there any problems with your information because of the way you gathered it?

Health Assessment:

General comments: There are 6 areas of health: physical, psychological/emotional, cognitive/intellectual, spiritual, social, and environmental. You MUST address each and every one of the six areas as per the example discussed below:

*What is your current health status? 

*Discuss both positive and negative health issues. Explain why they are appropriate examples or

issues to be discussing in the particular area of health you are discussing (ie., why is this a

physical health issue), especially if it is a health issue that could be discussed in more than

one place.

*Include health-related habits and behaviors as well as illnesses or conditions.

*Overall, is your health status good or bad? Why do you think so?

*Describe your family’s health status

*DO NOT just list every individual and their health issues.

*Provide over all trends and patterns. Give percentages. Summarize the information.

*For example: what percentage of the family members have particular health habits or illnesses? 

How many generations is that health issue or habit present in? Are there gender differences? 

Are they learned behaviors or hereditary issues?

*Discuss what impact your family has had on your current and future health status.

*Are there health problems you are at higher risk of contracting/being exposed to?

*Are there positive/negative habits you have picked up from being around them?

*Is there information about your family’s health you don’t have that you wish you

DID have? Why or why not?

*Is there information you wish you did NOT know about? Why or why not?

*Did they support you in starting and/or maintaining positive or negative health

habits? (for example, attended all your activities, bought you your first pack of

cigarettes, etc.)

*Are there behaviors you need to change because of what you learned? Why or

why not?

Examples of health information for each of the 6 areas of health:

*Physical: exercise habits, nutrition habits, disabilities, genetic disorders, illnesses, causes of death, weight,

smoking, alcohol consumption, tobacco, medications, risk-taking behaviors, etc.

*Emotional/Psychological: stress management habits, emotional illnesses, anger management behaviors,

ability to discuss feelings with others, attachment style, relationship issues, abuse, phobias, etc.

*Cognitive/intellectual: learning style, cognitive/learning disabilities, sense of humor, educational

experience, problem-solving skills, information processing ability, prejudices/discriminatory

behavior, etc.

*Spiritual: Religious affiliation, strength of religious beliefs, moral code, hypocritical behavior,

discriminatory behavior on the basis of religion, level of moral development (Kohlberg’s Theory, for

example), etc.

*Social: interpersonal relationship style, community involvement, social rules issues (for example, in

trouble with the law), social “style,” impact of social issues on other areas of health, social skills, etc.

*Environmental: occupational hazards or risks, living environment safety issues, recycling, pollution

exposure, risk-taking behaviors, etc.

NOTE: many of these examples may be relevant in more than one of the six areas of health. For example, stress management issues can lead to physical health problems, social interaction problems, and other issues.

Conclusion:

  • What did you learn from doing this assignment?
  • Did anything surprise you?
  • If you could do this assignment over again, what would you do differently?

*how you gathered information

*time frame

*how you approached your analysis

*Do you have any suggestions for improving this assignment/making it more useful?
