Don't let AI become fragmented across departments. A Steering Committee provides central expertise, standards, and support that accelerates adoption organization-wide.
A Steering Committee is a team dedicated to enabling successful AI adoption across your organization. They set standards, provide guidance, share best practices, and help teams implement AI solutions effectively and safely.
The Steering Committee isn't a bottleneck that controls all AI work. It's an enabler that makes teams more successful by providing expertise, tools, templates, and governance frameworks. They answer questions, review proposals, share learnings, and remove obstacles.
Mature Steering Committees balance enabling innovation with maintaining control. They make it easy to do the right thing while preventing costly mistakes. They celebrate successes, document failures as learning opportunities, and continuously evolve standards based on what works.
