What is the Mid-Market Generative AI Policy Design course about?

Mid-market organizations undergoing acquisition face unique challenges in aligning generative AI use across disparate systems, teams, and governance models. Without a standardized, scalable policy framework, every integration introduces technical debt, compliance exposure, and leadership overhead. Leaders are expected to move fast, but not at the cost of control, auditability, or stakeholder trust.
