  Bigger. Bolder. Better: The Role of AI Governance

  Jul 29, 202615 minS3

  Bigger. Bolder. Better. That was the mantra at SAP Connect UAE and it has stayed with me since, because it puts words to exactly how I'm building Responsible Innovation. A bigger impact means taking bolder moves. And bolder moves only hold if they come with better alignment to your values. Ambition without alignment is how organisations can stall in their Al journey. It was also running through my mind during a conversation I filmed at SAP Connect with Tudor Borlea from Colllibra, which I'm sharing today. One thing we kept coming back to: in Al safety, the right analogy does more than explain it helps people prioritise. When governance is understood as what makes bold moves possible, rather than what slows them down, it stops being a compliance conversation and becomes a business one. Thank you, Tudor and the Collibra team - a conversation worth reflecting on.
