Signature presentation

Who Made the Decision?

The Invisible Layer Between AI, Human Judgment & Accountability

AI can recommend, prioritize, summarize or score while a person still makes the final choice. Viv examines where that influence becomes reliance, how judgment can shift over time and what organizations need to make responsibility clear.

Her Decision Governance approach focuses on the decisions AI helps shape. Through examples and practical questions, she explores decision authority, escalation, documentation and meaningful human oversight.
