What is the M&A escalations routed to your desk course about?

Strong engineers often stay in execution mode because their artefacts lack the formal consistency that leaders look for when delegating sensitive work. Without a recognized framework footprint, even excellent output is seen as ‘local’ rather than enterprise-grade.

Before vs. after

Before
Governance work is assigned reactively, often after issues arise. Artefacts require heavy review and rework. Peer teams bypass you for faster, less formal routes.
After
You are the first call for AI governance escalations. Your documentation is accepted without revision. M&A and vendor teams proactively request your involvement.
