Session: Designing Trust: The Governance Gap That Will Make or Break Enterprise AI
AI is rapidly reshaping hiring, customer engagement, and daily decision making, but most organizations still lack the governance needed to use it safely and effectively. The real threat is not AI itself. The real threat is the absence of clear rules, ownership, and safeguards. When AI learns from historic data, it can amplify bias, especially toward women. Without intentional leadership, these patterns scale faster than any human can correct.
In this session Wanda Roland reveals the Governance Gap and introduces a practical, human centered approach for building trust into AI systems. This talk goes beyond theory. Attendees will learn how to create a simple AI acceptable use policy, establish meaningful ownership for every AI initiative, design human in the loop guardrails that protect judgment and fairness, and recognize where bias can quietly enter AI supported workflows.
Participants will walk away with a straightforward method to move AI from experimentation to responsible execution.
