Data is the foundation of any organization and therefore, it is paramount that it is managed and maintained as a valuable resource. 

Subscribe to this channel to learn best practices and emerging trends in a variety of topics including data governance, analysis, quality management, warehousing, business intelligence, ERP, CRM, big data and more.

Decision intelligence promises to augment human judgment with AI-derived insight, but governance frameworks have not kept pace. When an AI system contributes to a decision, who is accountable for the outcome? How do we trace the information that informed the decision back to its sources? What documentation must exist before the decision is made, and what must be preserved afterward? These questions become urgent as AI moves from analysis into action.

This session presents a governance framework for AI-assisted decisions built on the distinction between lineage and provenance. Lineage documents the flow of data through systems: which sources informed the AI, through what transformations, with what dependencies. Provenance records the history of specific values: who created them, when they were modified, and what parameters governed their treatment. For decision governance, both are necessary. Lineage shows the decision drew on approved sources through documented pipelines; provenance ensures specific values can be traced through a custody chain.

Particular attention is given to retrieval-augmented generation, where decisions may be informed by content retrieved from knowledge bases. Governance must begin at ingestion, documenting sources before they enter the system. Access controls must filter retrieval by permissions. Citation trails must connect generated outputs to retrieved passages and original sources. The session examines what governance can automate and what it cannot.

Key Takeaways:
- Decision governance requires both lineage (system flows) and provenance (value histories).
- RAG systems require governance from ingestion through retrieval to output.
- Accountability cannot be automated; governance must preserve human responsibility.
- Citation trails enable defensible AI decisions.

Governing the Decision: Accountability in AI-Assisted Intelligence

AI governance presents an architectural challenge that centralized approaches cannot solve. Monolithic review processes create friction that development teams bypass; purely decentralized models produce inconsistency that regulators will not accept. The session presents a federated architecture for AI governance: central functions set policies and standards while domain functions retain authority to adapt implementation within defined thresholds for risk, financial impact, and infrastructure cost.

This federated model rests on five components: policies and standards that define acceptable use; governance structures that distribute authority appropriately; risk assessment processes that scale from self-service questionnaires to expert review; technical infrastructure including model registries and automated policy enforcement; and monitoring systems that track drift, accuracy, and fairness over time. Each component must be designed for the distinctive nature of AI: algorithms that learn and change, rather than fixed logic that can be reviewed once and approved indefinitely.

The session traces a maturity progression from experimentation through restricted deployment to production scale, with governance controls calibrated to each stage. Participants will examine how permission models, audit schedules, and oversight intensity can be tiered to match risk levels, avoiding both the paralysis of excessive control and the exposure of insufficient oversight.

Key Takeaways:
- Federated governance balances consistency with domain-appropriate flexibility.
- Five components (policies, structure, risk assessment, infrastructure, monitoring) form a complete architecture.
- Tiered permission and audit models match oversight intensity to risk level.
- Maturity progression from experimentation to production requires different controls at each stage.

Architecting AI Governance: Federated Models That Scale

In the world of business analytics, technical accuracy does not equate business impact. Without the trust of leadership, even the most sophisticated analytics models fail to translate data into action. Data managers must recognize the critical gap is not in the data, but in the narrative they present. 

In this session, Google’s Jiaxi Zhu will introduce a four-part, narrative-driven analytics framework for bridging the divide between analytics and real-world business outcomes. 

Through in-depth examples, he will demonstrate how to:
- Design analytics models with action in mind.
- Frame outputs in a decision-ready context. 
- Shape complex insights into coherent, compelling stories that drive action.

From Insights to Impact: Building Narrative-Enabled Analytics to Drive Executive Decision-Making

From Data Chaos to Clarity: Building an Insights-Driven Enterprise in 2026

As AI capabilities expand, a common assumption takes hold: that analytics will gradually be absorbed into automated systems, with human analysts playing a diminishing role. This session challenges that assumption. AI excels at pattern detection, summarization, and prediction at scale; but analytics provides something AI cannot automate. Verification against business context, interpretation for stakeholders, accountability for decisions, and iteration based on feedback remain irreducibly human contributions. Analytics is not being replaced; it is being repositioned as the last mile of insight.

The session examines how the relationship between AI and analytics is shifting. AI handles volume and velocity; analytics supplies judgment and meaning. Organizations that understand this complementarity can design workflows where AI accelerates the routine while analysts focus on the consequential. Those who misunderstand it risk automating the wrong things: optimizing speed while losing the interpretive depth that makes data valuable.

Drawing on research into how AI affects analysts of varying skill levels, the session also addresses a differential effect: experienced analysts often find AI amplifies their creativity and productivity, while less experienced staff may feel threatened or displaced. This has implications for hiring, training, and team design that analytics leaders cannot afford to ignore.

Key Takeaways:
- AI and analytics serve complementary functions; substitution narratives misread the opportunity.
- Verification, interpretation, accountability, and iteration remain human responsibilities
- Experienced analysts benefit disproportionately from AI augmentation; organizations must design for this differential.
- The strategic value of analytics increases, not decreases, as AI capabilities expand.
