Your Challenge

You have been given a mandate to govern how you will responsibly deliver on your roadmap and strategy for AI technologies:

  • Develop policies that clarify appropriate use of data and AI models, and limit organizational risk.
  • Create processes that support the design, development, deployment and operation of AI models.
  • Identify how you’ll make strategic, tactical, and operational decisions that ensure the use of AI aligns to your organization’s goals and values.


Our Advice

Critical Insight

  • Most organizations default accountability for AI to IT, or don’t assign accountability at all. Responsible governance requires the business to take accountability for their approach to AI.
  • Very few organizations have a formal and structured approach to AI governance:
    • AI can introduce or intensify risks that affect the entire organization, but most organizations haven’t integrated AI risks in their enterprise risk management framework.
    • Most organizations don’t assign accountability for AI or it defaults to the CIO – and yet authority and true accountability remain with the business.
    • Policies are published without any controls to monitor and enforce compliance.

Impact and Result

  • Start to govern AI responsibly by following Info-Tech’s structured approach:
    • Identify key risks related to AI.
    • Identify a set of responsible AI principles.
    • Create an AI governance structure: identify key governing organizations, their mandate, key roles and responsibilities.
    • Design an AI governance operating model.
    • Evaluate policy gaps using a policy framework.
  • Use your findings to develop a roadmap and communication plan to govern AI in your organization.
