AI Governance Sprint

A 90-day path to defensible AI governance.

Move from scattered AI use to a board-ready governance program. We align policy, training, approvals, and reporting into a single, focused sprint.

Why now

AI is already in your workflows. Governance needs to catch up.

65% higher-ed staff already using AI
82% nonprofit staff using AI
21% boards have audited AI use

Adoption is happening. Governance is how you keep it safe, consistent, and useful.

The problem we solve

Unapproved AI use

Shadow AI tools create privacy and compliance risk across departments.

No executive oversight

Leadership lacks clear visibility into AI adoption, risk, and value.

Policy gaps

Existing policies rarely address AI-specific risk, data, or vendor controls.

What the sprint delivers

Month 1: Align

  • Executive kickoff and inventory baseline
  • Draft AI acceptable use policy
  • Risk register and approval workflow design

Month 2: Build

  • Finalize policy and governance charter
  • Staff training and communications
  • Tool inventory and vendor checklist

Month 3: Sustain

  • Leadership reporting cadence
  • Metrics dashboard and risk monitoring
  • 90-day action plan and handoff

Who it is for

  • Institutions piloting AI across multiple departments.
  • Leaders needing board-ready governance fast.
  • Teams without a dedicated AI risk program.

Who it is not for

  • Organizations seeking only technical model development.
  • Teams looking for generic policy templates without guidance.
  • Programs that already have mature AI governance in place.
