What is the Compliance-Ready Building Domain Authority course about?

In complex organizations, engineers and product leaders often advance domain models that later face governance delays or board skepticism. The gap isn't capability, it's communication, structure, and alignment timing. Without a compliance-ready approach, even sound technical strategies stall in review cycles or fail to secure buy-in.
