This teaching case study delves into the journey of a public sector healthcare organisation in Australia, Vitality Alliance Queensland (VAQ), as they strive to future-proof the organisation’s data governance framework. Drawing from a real-world scenario, the case describes three key governance challenges faced by the organisation: data accessibility, data sensitivity, and data democratisation and empowerment. The rich narrative allows students to gain a deep understanding of the tensions that arise within and across these challenges and insights into how diverse stakeholders must navigate complexities to create and realise value from organisational data.
