The AI Policy Kit

Your team is already using AI — the only question is whether it's under a policy or a guess. Ten rules, three templates, and the incident playbook for the day something goes wrong.

What's in the kit

  • The field guide — 10 rules that hold (PDF)
  • Three policy templates — full, one-page, contractor (DOCX fill-in)
  • The 30-day rollout plan (XLSX)
  • The 30-minute team training script (PDF)
  • The AI incident playbook (PDF)

Why this kit, why now

Every team is past the “should we use AI” question. The exposed flank is governance: what goes in, what comes out, and who stands behind it — written down before the day someone asks “what were the rules?”

Most policies fail one of two ways: a lock so tight nobody reports anything, or a suggestion so vague it isn’t a policy. This kit is the middle path.

What you’ll do with it

  1. Fill the templates — full company policy, one-page starter, contractor addendum. One afternoon, publishable.
  2. Run the 30-day rollout — draft, skeptics, legal glance, train, share-out. Every step has an owner and a date.
  3. Deliver the training — the 30-minute script that lands the rules without a mutiny, including the FAQ answers.
  4. Pre-decide the incident — the playbook for “someone already pasted it”: contain, assess, report, review — with the first sentence to say out loud.

The honest fine print

This is the 80% policy — strong and publishable. Regulated industries (health, finance, legal, government) need the counsel-reviewed version; this kit is your best possible first draft for that conversation, not a replacement for it.

Who it's for

Leaders whose teams use AI tools and who want the rules written before they're needed.
