Agenda Day 1

11:20 AM THINK TANK | GOVERNANCE THAT LIVES IN THE FLOW – OWNERSHIP, EVIDENCE, AND SPEED WITHOUT SILOS

Governance is a team sport and only works when built on top of delivery workflows, not layered over it – when people don’t’ actually use it, operations stall. Too often, rules sit outside the frontline, so teams wait weeks for approvals, chase definitions, or re-check what should be obvious or immediately accessible. The fix is simple: ownership in business teams, clear decision rights, findable definitions, and lineage captured automatically – the result? Saved time, energy, and sanity. A central-but-open library keeps people aligned, while reusable evidence packs and event-based approvals replace 11th-hour bottlenecks and cut delays before they start.

• Assign ownership and decision rights inside everyday workflows.
• Automate cataloguing, lineage, and evidence to reduce rework.
• Use event-based approvals to shrink cycle time and prevent last-minute stalls.
