The Governed Enterprise: An AI Governance Playbook for Consumer Goods - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Your company is already running AI. It is not running AI governance.

Marketing is drafting copy in ChatGPT. Procurement is piloting agents that can place orders. Your software vendors have embedded AI in systems you approved years ago. None of it waited for a policy. And the gap between what your company has deployed and what it can actually oversee is where your real risk lives: the next recall, the next data leak, the next regulatory finding.

THE GOVERNED ENTERPRISE is a working playbook for the executives accountable when AI acts on its own — the CIO, the General Counsel, the VP of Operations, the CFO. Written by a thirty-year enterprise technology leader with deep experience in consumer goods manufacturing environments, it translates AI governance out of the compliance binder and onto the plant floor, the co-manufacturer contract, and the board agenda.

This is not a book about slowing AI down. It is about deploying it reliably enough to extend its authority, capture the value at scale, and keep the trust of the retailers, regulators, and consumers who make the business possible.

Inside, you will find:

• How to give an agentic AI real spending authority without writing a blank check — circuit breakers, kill switches, and spend authority matrices built for supply chains, not slide decks
• Why undeclared allergens become an AI problem the moment a co-manufacturer substitutes an ingredient, and how to govern the vendors operating on your behalf
• What the Samsung data leak and the Knight Capital collapse teach every CPG leader before they authorize their next deployment
• A maturity model to locate exactly where your organization stands on AI risk today
• Specific next steps at the close of every chapter — written to be acted on this quarter, not admired

The regulatory timeline is set. The liability is already in court. Build the governance capability now, while it is still a competitive choice rather than a crisis response.

Governance is not the cost of being responsible. It is how you win.
