AI governance stays siloed in technical or compliance teams

The situation this course is for

Even well-constructed frameworks fail to scale when they lack cross-functional credibility. Practitioners report that without structured influence, AI governance becomes a checklist rather than a catalyst.

Who this is for

Senior GTM or strategy leader in a global tech organization, responsible for coordinating AI governance adoption across business units

Who this is not for

Junior compliance staff, standalone auditors, or engineers focused only on model validation

What you walk away with

  • Lead cross-functional AI governance rollouts using ISO 42001 as a common language
  • Translate governance requirements into GTM-specific playbooks for regional teams
  • Anticipate and resolve misalignment before policy deployment
  • Establish influence in product planning and regional sales strategy
  • Build reusable templates that reduce governance friction in new markets
