What you’ll get

A 10-page, score-based checklist covering the areas that most often create risk and rework during GenAI adoption:

  • 0–2 scoring system per item so you can quantify maturity fast

  • 6 core sections: Governance, Risk Management, Data Protection, Model Oversight, Human Oversight, Vendor Management

  • Brief guidance in each section to help you interpret what “good” looks like

  • A simple way to identify your top 3 gaps and next steps

GenAI Governance Checklist

Who it’s for

This checklist is designed for organisations that are:

  • Rolling out GenAI tools (internal copilots, customer-facing assistants, automation, content generation)

  • Working across UK/EU regulatory expectations (privacy, security, emerging AI regulation)

  • Trying to balance speed of adoption with risk and reputational protection

Ideal for: CIO/CTO, CISO, DPO, Head of Risk, Legal/Compliance, Product & Data leaders.

Why this matters now

GenAI initiatives move quickly—often faster than governance can keep up. Without a lightweight operating model, common failure points include:

  • “Shadow AI” use cases that bypass review

  • Sensitive data appearing in prompts, outputs, or logs

  • Vendor terms that don’t match your risk posture

  • No agreed process for testing, monitoring, or rollback

  • Over-reliance on outputs without appropriate human review

This checklist helps you create a defensible baseline and a prioritised improvement plan.

How it works (3 steps)

  1. Download the checklist

  2. Score each item 0–2 and capture evidence

  3. Prioritise actions by section (fast wins first, deeper improvements next)

You can complete it solo or in a short working session across Security, Risk, Legal/DP, and IT/Product.
