AI Governance & GenAI Usage
Strategic Briefing for Boards, Legal, and the CSuite
Confidential | Live | Tailored
Artificial intelligence is accelerating faster than most governance structures can keep up. Executive teams face real exposure — shadow AI usage, undocumented vendor systems, biased model outputs, and regulators demanding proof of oversight. Boards are now asking for defensible governance frameworks, while business units experiment with tools like ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and unvetted third-party platforms.
This briefing is built for organizations that must govern before they scale. It expands on our foundational AI education work and is grounded in the real-world advisory, forensic, and legal engagements delivered by Ahmadeus Technology Boutique.
Why This Matters for Leadership
Across Fortune 500s, private equity portfolios, multinational firms, and regulated institutions, we consistently see the same patterns:
AI being deployed in silos with no audit trail
Vendor models impacting decision-making without transparency
Legal teams struggling to assess liability from AI-generated content
Boards requiring structured oversight documentation and policy alignment
Compliance, cybersecurity, and risk teams unable to validate model behavior
These failures have already triggered litigation, investigations, and reputational damage. This workshop equips leadership teams to get ahead of those outcomes.
What Makes This Engagement Distinct
This strategic advisory session helps executive leaders establish defensible governance frameworks, understand emerging global regulatory requirements, and implement board-level oversight structures that satisfy fiduciary duties while enabling competitive AI deployment.
This briefing draws from engagements such as:
Keynote Speech: Intro to AI – Ethics, Audit Risk & Algorithmic Accountability – Delivered to internal audit and compliance leaders at the Institute of Internal Auditors Annual Conference, providing audit committees with practical frameworks for evaluating AI risk exposure, shadow AI usage, and algorithmic accountability.
AI in the Courtroom – A comprehensive CLE course delivered via Lawline to over 100 attorneys, exploring legal, ethical, and evidentiary challenges posed by AI-generated content in litigation, covering admissibility under the Federal Rules of Evidence, Daubert standards for algorithmic tools, and practical safeguards for using AI responsibly in court
Navigating AI in Legal Practice – CLE offering a two-part exploration: first, examining the standards and tools for authenticating AI-generated content; second, equipping attorneys to understand and challenge expert testimony on AI systems
AI and the Law – CLE providing judges and attorneys with a practical three-pillar framework for evaluating AI evidence: capabilities, transparency, and expert testimony standards
Digital Frontiers: Protecting and Litigating IP in the Age of Cyber Threats and Tech Complexity – New York State Bar session addressing how AI and cyber threats are reshaping intellectual property protection and litigation, featuring real-world cases of source code theft and trade secret misappropriation
University Guest Lectures – Exploring AI's transformative impact on corporate strategies and operations, discussing integration challenges and opportunities across business sectors
Ongoing strategic advisory sessions with different CSuite Executives and senior legal teams on AI governance, regulatory compliance, and executive-level risk management.
This experience ensures the guidance is not theoretical — it is rooted in the technical realities of how AI systems break, how oversight fails, and how regulators respond.
