Define key performance indicators (KPIs) to track the impact of data governance initiatives on platform performance, driving continuous improvements in data accuracy and consistency. 
•    Data Democratization: Work with IT and BI teams to facilitate secure, self-service access to governed data on the platform. Enable business users to confidently leverage platform data while ensuring compliance with governance policies, fostering a data-driven culture. 
•    Compliance and Risk Management: Ensure platform data practices comply with relevant regulations (e.g., HIPAA, GDPR). Identify data-related risks within platform workflows and collaborate with Legal, IT, and Compliance teams to mitigate these risks through governance controls.
