Is Your AI Governance Keeping Pace with Your AI?

Your AI is moving faster than your governance. That's not a future problem — it's a right-now problem. In this episode, Bill Coffin sits down with Laura Jacobus, EVP of Strategic Advisory Services at Mitratech, to unpack why the AI governance frameworks most companies built 18 months ago are already struggling to keep up — and what AI Governance 2.0 actually looks like in practice. From Board mandates pushing AI into the hands of first-time users, to agentic AI systems that can delete a database in seconds without a human in the loop, Laura brings sharp, practical perspective on where E&C programs need to evolve — and fast.
