AI Governance Guide : 90-Minute Team Session
What the template is about :
A ready-to-run board for standing up lightweight AI governance with your team in 90 minutes. Teams bring one real build, run a 7-question diagnostic live, and leave with shared tier assignments, named ownership, and a reusable onboarding kit - so the next team's session costs less than yours did.
What it helps you achieve
Moving from ad-hoc AI use to named ownership, clear data rules, and IT visibility on every shared build - before the costs compound.
The timeline this prevents: weekend script → looks fine at month one → schema drift at month three → wrong data nobody caught for six weeks → VP slide using broken numbers at month 24, with no owner and no fix. That timeline is preventable. This session is how.
Who would benefit from it most
Leaders managing teams that are building AI tools faster than anyone is tracking them. Specifically: Heads of Product, Engineering Leads, IT Directors, and Chiefs of Staff who are about to inherit a maintenance problem they didn't agree to own.
How to use it
Run a quick shadow AI survey before the session - ask your team what tools they've built, what data they touched, and how they'd feel if it showed up in a board meeting tomorrow.
In the session: open with the cost story so the why lands before the how.
Use the 7-question diagnostic live against a real build the team actually shipped - the "oh, that's my tool" moment is where the real work happens.
Route everything to Sandbox, Approved, or Placeholder. Leave with a decision log and a replication kit ready for the next team.
