Overview
Boards need more than general awareness of AI to exercise clear oversight. Orbital Intelligence delivers focused training for directors, executives and senior managers to support informed decision-making on AI initiatives. The emphasis is practical: what leaders need to understand, what questions to ask, and what controls should exist before AI use expands.
Core topics
AI capability in plain terms: What reliable capability state-of-the-art tools currently offer, where they remain limited, and how those limits affect oversight and decision-making.
Governance and accountability: Decision rights, oversight models, approval gates, and how to establish clear accountability.
Risk and compliance: Privacy, security, intellectual property, bias, data handling, third-party risk, records obligations and regulatory expectations in Australia.
Evaluating proposals: How to assess use case value, feasibility and risk, and how to challenge vendor claims using evidence rather than assumptions.
Delivery formats
Sessions are tailored to your organisation and sector. We draw on your existing policies, examples and current initiatives where available, and focus discussion on decisions and controls. Common formats include:
Board briefing (60 to 90 minutes): Oversight responsibilities, risk posture, governance expectations and executive decisions required.
Executive workshop (half day): Practical governance, controls, use case evaluation and implementation oversight.
Leadership series (multi-session): Capability uplift across risk, legal, HR, IT and operational leaders.
