The work stream we need in every records program to get records to where we all want it to be.

Is “Records Management for Decision Making”.

Every records engagement should start with the question “how can we package the information this process captures so that it can be used to improve decisions?”

Which senior executive isn’t going to invest in the part of the organisation that makes them more likely to get decisions right?

This is a burning platform.

Organisations are hiring “data” people by the thousands to do what records have the skills and information to do.

Or we could just keep sentencing and destroying.

And not getting the budgets we need.
