AI is moving fast. But is your organisation actually ready for it? AI, Copilot and automation are only as good as the information foundations beneath them. Join Anne Cornish and Jacqueline Stockwell for a practical conversation about why information professionals need a seat at the AI table, what AI readiness really looks like, and how the EMPOWER AI Readiness Accelerator helps organisations move from AI ambition to safe, governed and practical action.
Many organisations are investing in AI, Microsoft Copilot, automation and digital transformation before the information foundations underneath them are ready. When information is duplicated, poorly governed, difficult to find, incorrectly shared or has no clear owner, AI does not solve the problem. It can amplify it.
That is why Leadership Through Data and RIMPA Global are working together around the EMPOWER AI Readiness Accelerator.
In this conversational webinar, Anne Cornish and Jacqueline Stockwell will explore what AI readiness really means for information professionals and their organisations, and why information management, governance and leadership need to be part of the AI conversation from the beginning.
Rather than another training programme, EMPOWER is designed as an implementation environment for information leaders who need to turn AI ambition into safe, governed and practical action. Participants learn, apply, receive feedback and create usable workplace outputs as part of the work they are already doing.
This webinar is for information, records, governance, privacy, risk, Microsoft 365, digital and AI leaders who are being asked to help their organisations adopt AI and are thinking:
Where do we actually start?
If AI, Copilot or automation is already on your organisation's agenda, this conversation will help you step back and ask a more important question:
Join Anne Cornish and Jacqueline Stockwell for a practical conversation about moving from AI interest to AI readiness, and from AI readiness to action.
Because AI only works when your information works!
