How to spring clean your organization's data.

It's time for a thorough spring-cleaning of your company's data. Corporate data are a lot like someone's closet: packed to the point of bursting; filled with items that are similar but not quite identical; archiving things that haven't been worn in years; sprinkled with a few items that were trendy but not useful over the long term; holding other gems that are worn all the time because they're good quality, they work well together, and they fit your lifestyle; and storing the indispensable favorite pair of bluejeans. In this month's guest column, Connie L. Van Fleet will help you decide what data to keep and what to toss.
