    Stop the DIET Cycle and Boil the Ocean!

    Join us for a lighthearted take on how organizations often approach Records and Intelligent Information Management (RIIM) initiatives by seeking a “DIET” solution, a "Digital Information Electronic Tool". Just as people search for miracle weight loss solutions, companies often chase the technology quick-fix! When RIIM experts dare to mention governance and information policies, data ownership and mapping, control requirements, etc., we hear the inevitable "we can't boil the ocean" or "you're overcomplicating this—let's just pick a tool and let it define the process." Take a deep breath, fellow RIIM professionals, as I know those are triggering statements.

    The RIIM expert's struggle is universal. From a 20-person organization to global enterprises with 70,000+ employees, the challenges remain surprisingly consistent worldwide. Learn battle-tested strategies and hard-learned lessons (including the ones that left the deepest scars) for successfully “selling” and implementing RIIM processes and systems within your organization, especially as we venture into the age of AI. Time to shift the “DIET” focus to the RIIM “Process Pill”—known side effects, boiling the ocean!
