Connect the working decisions
This pack helps responsible teams establish a practical review process around specific AI uses. It connects an inventory with guidance, ownership, supplier evidence, oversight and a record of decisions and changes.
Who it is for
Business sponsors, AI programme leads and governance colleagues coordinating with their legal, privacy, security, risk, procurement and technical owners.
Use the records together
Work through six worksheet types with the guide and matching fictional examples. Carry a stable use identifier across records, preserve evidence references and distinguish draft proposals from actual authorised decisions.
The twelve prompts support drafting and challenge. Your responsible owners verify the evidence, determine specialist requirements and approve any change. The pack does not provide legal conclusions, automatic risk ratings or certification.
Preview the approach
The free sample includes a guide excerpt, a fictional review example and one usable prompt. The full pack stays separate from the public sample. For organisation-specific facilitation and advice, explore practical AI governance advisory.
The full pack includes a formatted Excel workbook and individual CSV copies, with blank templates and clearly labelled fictional examples. The public sample shows part of the guide and a usable prompt; it does not contain the complete workbook or prompt collection.

- Formatted Excel workbook with blank templates and fictional examples, plus individual CSV copies
- Six editable worksheet types, each with a completed fictional example

A sample of the working approach
This public sample shows part of the Practical AI Governance Pack: a guidance excerpt, a fictional review example and one complete prompt. The full pack includes a substantial guide, six editable worksheet types with fictional examples, and twelve contextual prompts. This excerpt does not include the full worksheets or full prompt collection.
Draft guidance people can apply
The acceptable-use working-guidance sheet connects a role and task with permitted inputs, permitted actions, checks, prohibited activity and an escalation route. Draft examples in the language people use at work. “Use approved information” becomes more useful when the guidance names the approved collection, the access route and the owner who can answer questions.
Keep draft guidance visibly separate from approved instructions. Legal and privacy owners determine applicable obligations; security and technology owners establish their requirements and controls. Business and governance owners approve the resulting working arrangement. A prompt may expose a missing question, but it cannot declare a use compliant or decide that a specialist review is unnecessary.
Test the draft with an ordinary case and a difficult one. Ask a colleague to explain what they would do when the input is incomplete, the answer lacks a source, or the output contradicts an approved instruction. Revise wording that leaves the next action unclear. Make the current approved version easy for the intended users to find.
Fictional review example
A fictional internal IT assistant is proposed to draft support answers from selected articles. It would not send messages, change access or retrieve employee case histories. The service adviser would compare each draft with its cited current article and handle an uncertain answer manually.
Source permissions and technical restrictions remain unverified. The review record therefore keeps the next decision pending, with questions assigned to information and systems owners. A convincing demonstration does not fill those evidence gaps. This example is a planning scenario, not a client result or an approved deployment.
Try one prompt: separate assistance from action
Approved inputs: a workflow description, proposed system capabilities, actions, exclusions and evidence references. Use only material permitted for your chosen AI tool.
Human review: workflow and technical owners confirm actual capabilities and retained decisions. Relevant specialist owners determine which further reviews are required. A generated table is a draft, not an authorisation.
