TOPIC
AI is no longer just assisting - it's acting.
From retrieving data to making decisions and executing tasks, AI agents are quietly reshaping how work gets done. The problem? Most organizations are still treating them like toos, not actors. This creates a growing accountability gap - one that regulators are already starting to address. In this workshop, we break down what's actually changing, where organizations are exposed, and how to build governance that keeps pace with how AI is really being used.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
1
Accountability, not productivity
Why AI agents change the question of who is responsible - not just how fast work gets done.
2
The four questions
The four questions every organization must answer about its agents - but usually can't.
3
Governance in practice
What 'good' A governance actually looks like - beyond policy decks and acceptable-use memos.
4
Get ahead of regulation
How to move before legislation forces your hand - and what early movers are already doing.
