Understanding, Controlling, and Avoiding AI Risks - Governance as a Safety Net for Innovation

As an experienced B2B Tech Leader and specialist in AI Governance & Compliance, I have established and led numerous Project Management Offices (PMOs) in complex AI initiatives. My focus is on linking governance, compliance, and operational project control to execute agentic AI projects in a transparent, audit-ready, and successful manner. I combine deep knowledge of regulatory requirements (EU AI Act, ISO 42001, GDPR) with broad methodological expertise in traditional (Stage-Gate, Prince2), agile (Scrum, Kanban, SAFe), and hybrid approaches. With many years of leadership experience in international matrix organizations, I am accustomed to engaging stakeholders at all levels, managing risks early, and steering projects to success based on clearly defined KPIs and roadmaps.
