I have often found it difficult to engage top IT management with executive management and legal in a comprehensive information management program that can include records management, imaging, document management, and so on. This book provides an easy to read framework for looking at these issues from each of these different perspectives as well as those of Risk Management. In essence, the book provides a set of comfortable "corrective lenses" that let each of these entities share a common vision for the integrity of the organization's information compliance responsibilities. The authors include many anecdotal narratives in each chapter. These are highlighted with grey background and feature case studies of companies that did or did not manage their information properly and the results of their actions. These break up the chapters nicely and help make the reading go more quickly. The reports of both companies and individuals having been punished will certainly catch the attention of many top executives. The book is filled with practical steps to get your company's information management compliance program successfully underway. It is easy to read and a great book to share. Highly recommended for anyone involved in Records Management or Risk Management. Information Nation: Seven Keys to Information Management Compliance
