Choice guide

Which intervention fits?

Use the route as a leadership choice guide. The briefing creates direction, the scan makes the gap visible, and the sprint designs the first workable operating model.

Executive Briefing

When the board or executive team needs a shared view of AI risk, responsibility and direction.

Indicative duration
60 to 90 minutes

AI Covenant Scan

When AI is already in use but use cases, data boundaries, training or ownership are unclear.

Indicative duration
Usually 2 to 3 weeks

AI Covenant Sprint

When decisions are needed on roles, guardrails, processes, training and repair routes.

Indicative duration
Usually 3 to 6 weeks

What we need beforehand

  • Brief context of the organisation and the decision moment.
  • Existing AI policy, tool overview or relevant guidelines if available.
  • Known use cases, concerns, incidents or questions from leadership, IT, HR or compliance.
  • The desired decision date or moment when direction is needed.
