Move from informal AI experimentation to practical policy, staff guidance, risk review and board-ready oversight — without building an enterprise-sized compliance program.
This workshop is designed for smaller organizations that need sensible structure around AI use without importing enterprise-scale bureaucracy. It is especially relevant where staff experimentation has moved faster than policy, review, documentation or board oversight.
The goal is not a policy binder. It is a working system leaders and staff can actually use.
Set clear expectations for acceptable use, human review, confidentiality and escalation.
Create a practical register so leaders can see where AI is being used and for what purpose.
Distinguish low-risk convenience from uses that need stronger review, documentation or approval.
Give boards and committees a clearer way to ask useful questions without managing operational detail.
The workshop is packaged to help participants move from understanding the governance problem to implementing practical controls in their own organization.

North Stride is designed around reusable learning rather than founder-dependent delivery. Team and network options remain available where shared learning is useful.
Learn on your own schedule with the digital learning package.
Structured access for a board, leadership team or small organization.
Broader access arrangements for associations, networks and sector groups.
If the learning package is not enough, the AI Governance & Responsible Adoption advisory sprint can help translate the framework into your organization’s specific controls, roles and implementation plan.
No. The workshop is built for leaders, finance and operations professionals, boards and staff. It focuses on governance decisions rather than technical model engineering.
No. Policy is only one component. The workshop also addresses use-case visibility, risk review, staff guidance, board oversight and implementation.
No. It is a practical governance and organizational learning resource. Your organization should obtain specialist legal, privacy, cybersecurity or regulatory advice where your context requires it.
Use the workshop and tools first. If your organization then needs tailored implementation support, North Stride offers a defined AI governance advisory pathway rather than open-ended consulting.
