Director level support: what do we want?

[murdo-moj]

Director level buy-in is something other data catalogue teams list as a major driving force. What specific things can we ask for director level input on to help drive uptake and quality of our service?

• Contacts for more data sources?
• Time for teams to enrich existing metadata?
• Contacts for a more diverse user base?
• Director-level championing/comms for the catalogue?

I would add

• identifying owners for data sources we are onboarding next (or giving us a reliable way to get this info)
• making sure the owners know what is happening and why before we do it, so we don't have to chase lots of busy senior people
• telling data producers/teams with their own data catalogue to speak to us and find out how they can get their metadata on Find MoJ data (the more this is producer driven, the more we can focus on talking to data consumers?)

I think getting people's time is a big one, but I'm not sure exactly what the ask is yet.

Maybe we could formalise the onboarding process and then say "we want X team to go through this process within timeframe Y, can we make the time to enable this"
