What is the Final Call on AI Governance Decisions course about?

Governance bottlenecks aren't about intent, they're about who owns the final call. When decisions escalate, momentum stalls and peer teams lose confidence in your authority to resolve edge cases. What should be a one-stop review becomes a multi-round loop that drags on timelines and dilutes impact.
