Good Governance Builds Resilience

AI is only as good as the information behind it. Good governance, trusted data and clear processes are the foundation for resilient organisations.

“The organisations that get the most value from AI will be the ones that have done the foundational work first – trusted data, strong governance, clear access controls and confidence in where information is stored and who can access it.” Datacom director of AI Lou Compagnone.

Organisations become resilient when:

critical knowledge is documented
responsibilities are clear
decisions are traceable, and
information can be found quickly.

When a key person leaves:

a good governance structure allows the organisation to continue operating, and
a poor structure means knowledge walks out the door.

If you are expecting AI to magically fill the gaps in your governance and business’s knowledge? Think again. Your AI is only as good as the information you feed it. To make the most of your AI implementation, ensure your policies, processes and procedures up-to-date, consistently applied and aligned within themselves and with relevant industry standards and legislation.
