How to Finally Get Your Company to Care About Over Retention   

Presented by Mark Diamond, President & CEO, Contoural

The risks of over retaining electronic information – compliance, privacy, discovery risks and costs – are well known by Information Governance practitioners. But it seems like getting anyone to care about it can be difficult.  This presentation will discuss messaging along with tactics and strategies on how to get your company to not only care about over retention, but perhaps more importantly, to act on it. Even if your organization has been resilient to change so far, smart messaging paired with tactical strategies can get even the stodgiest of companies moving in the right direction. Join Mark Diamond from Contoural for some key take aways including: 

• While using the same, tired messaging may not work, rethinking our strategy will work 

• It is important to win hearts as well as minds in this campaign – but how do you do that? 

• What are the traditional records management practices that turn the organization off to tackling over retention, and what are the more modern approaches that do work 

• What are quick wins which you should focus on first
