This scan has one purpose: to give you an honest signal about where your organisation currently stands on AI governance. Not where it is heading, not where it should be, and not how it would describe itself in a board presentation.

Five questions, around three minutes.

Answer from what you personally know to be true in your role today. If a question can only be answered by consulting several colleagues first, that in itself is usually part of the answer.

How to read the questions

The answer options are deliberately mixed. A is not always the strongest answer, and D is not always the weakest. Please read all four options before choosing.

How the result is calculated

All five questions carry equal weight. The result considers both the total score and the strength of each individual answer. A single answer at the lowest level indicates a critical gap and results in a red signal. An answer at the second-lowest level prevents a green signal, even where the overall score is otherwise strong. This ensures that a high total score cannot conceal a material weakness in one of the areas covered.

What this scan is not

This is not a reduced version of the AI Governance Maturity Assessment. It is a first orientation on whether the basic governance questions can be answered at all. The full assessment covers ten governance dimensions and uses evidence-based scoring rather than a brief personal self-assessment.

The organisations that get the most value from this scan are those where someone at the top is willing to call things as they are. The gap between current state and desired state is not the problem. An unacknowledged gap is.
