In this in-depth session, we break down Domain 1 of the CISM exam to help you lead with purpose.From aligning security with business goals to navigating frameworks like COBIT and ISO/IEC 27001, this episode equips you with the tools to build strong governance practices that support risk management, compliance, and operational excellence.

The weaponization of the judiciary, cultural institutions, and federal agencies threatens deeper fissures. As demographic shifts challenge already fragile power hierarchies in places like Texas, the backlash grows, manifesting in state repression and ideological crusades. This week, "In Class with Carr" looks to historical memory to remind us that Governance formations can and must be reimagined with a focus on relational citizenship rather than always deeply flawed racial state structures.

A Clare member of the Association of Garda Sergeants and Inspectors' National Executive Committee insists the new Garda Commissioner must bring "stabilisation" to the force. Dublin native Justin Kelly has been appointed as successor to Drew Harris following a decision by Cabinet. The former Deputy Commissioner for Security, Strategy and Governance has been a Garda for over 30 years and previously served as Assistant Commissioner with responsibility for Serious and Organised Crime. Ennis-based Detective Sergeant Brian Howard believes the new appointee has a job of work to do to restore confidence in management among Clare members.

The need for international cooperation to govern artificial intelligence was highlighted at the 2025 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) that concluded in Shanghai on Monday, as experts, scholars and industry insiders from home and abroad reached a consensus to advance coordination and tackle challenges together in AI governance.在周一于上海闭幕的2025年世界人工智能大会（WAIC）上，加强国际间在人工智能治理方面的合作的需求得到了强调。来自国内外的专家、学者和业内人士达成共识，将加强协调合作，共同应对人工智能治理中的挑战。AI's borderless nature makes single-country governance insufficient to tackle global risks, potentially fueling international competition over rules, said experts.专家们表示，人工智能的无国界特性使得单一国家的治理手段难以应对全球性风险，这可能会引发各国在规则制定方面的竞争。"Cross-border data flows face structural barriers amid balancing national security, privacy and commercial interests, making multilateral talks critical to finding common ground on AI's global challenges," said Jiang Zeting, Party secretary and chair of the university council of the China University of Political Science and Law (CUPL).中国政法大学党委书记兼校董会主席姜泽廷表示：“在平衡国家安全、隐私保护和商业利益方面，跨境数据流动面临着结构性障碍。因此，多边谈判对于就人工智能的全球挑战达成共识至关重要。”The Global AI Governance Rules Map 2025 and the Global AI Governance Regulation Collaboration Research Platform, both research outputs by professors at CUPL, were launched during the conference.“2025年全球人工智能治理规则图谱”以及“全球人工智能治理法规合作研究平台”这两项研究成果均由重庆邮电大学的教授们完成，它们在此次会议上一同发布。The map is an interactive platform that integrates multisource data — including legislation, cases, strategies and guidelines — into an interactive world map, breaking down isolated rules to enable visibility, connectivity and practical use.该地图是一个交互式平台，它将多种来源的数据（包括法规、案例、策略和指南）整合到一个交互式的全球地图中，将孤立的规则分解开来，以实现可见性、连通性和实际应用性。Covering areas like technology innovation, data security, culture and climate protection, the map updates new rules within 72 to 96 hours and includes translation and annotation. Available in Chinese and international versions, it supports title or full-text searches and one-click filtering by authority, region or rule type.该地图涵盖了诸如技术创新、数据安全、文化以及气候保护等领域，会在72至96小时内更新新的规则，并包含翻译和注释内容。它有中文和国际版本可供选择，支持标题或全文搜索，以及一键按权限、地区或规则类型进行筛选。Building on a domestic research network, the Global AI Governance Regulation Collaboration Research Platform has expanded internationally, establishing nodes across continents and engaging leading global experts. It aims to pool global wisdom for inclusive, consensus-based governance frameworks.依托国内的研究网络，全球人工智能治理法规合作研究平台已拓展至国际层面，在各大洲设立了分支机构，并与全球顶尖专家展开合作。其目标是汇集全球智慧，构建包容性且基于共识的治理框架。A forum focusing on AI cooperation and development among BRICS countries was also held during the WAIC.在世界人工智能大会期间，还举办了一场聚焦于金砖国家之间人工智能合作与发展的论坛。Featuring deep discussions on global open-source ecosystems, industrial application innovation and governance frameworks, it aims to promote coordinated AI development across BRICS through joint achievements spanning academia, industry and application. The BRICS AI Industry Collaboration Network and International Artificial Intelligence Industry Alliance Global-Link were also launched at the event.该活动围绕全球开源生态系统、工业应用创新以及治理框架等方面进行了深入探讨，旨在通过跨学术界、工业界和应用领域的共同努力，促进金砖国家在人工智能领域的协同发展。同时，此次活动中还成立了金砖国家人工智能产业合作网络和国际人工智能产业联盟全球链接。The WAIC also saw efforts aimed at promoting open cooperation and technology sharing in AI among developing nations.世界人工智能大会还看到了一些旨在促进发展中国家在人工智能领域开展开放合作及技术共享的举措。A representative of the China Meteorological Administration donated "MAZU-Urban", a multihazard early warning smart system for urban applications, to representatives from Djibouti and Mongolia during the conference.中国气象局的一位代表在会议期间向吉布提和蒙古的代表捐赠了“妈祖-城市”这一专为城市应用设计的多灾种预警智能系统。This will enable the system, which integrates advanced algorithms and multisource data, to enhance early warning practices and disaster mitigation efforts internationally.这将使该系统（它融合了先进的算法和多源数据）能够在全球范围内提升预警措施和灾害应对工作水平。Experts also discussed ways to bridge the AI divide for emerging markets and developing nations.专家们还探讨了如何为新兴市场和发展中国家解决人工智能发展方面的差距问题。 AI governancen.人工智能治理/ˌeɪˈaɪˈɡʌvənəns/Global AI Governance Rules Map 2025n.2025年全球人工智能治理规则图谱/ˈɡləʊblˌeɪˈaɪˈɡʌvənəns ruːlz mæpˌtuː ˈθaʊzndˈtwenti faɪv/

"I had to learn to be a political animal."Big 4 TransparencyBy Dominic Piscopo, CPAFor CPA TrendlinesIn a candid conversation on the Big 4 Transparency show, former CohnReznick CEO Frank Longobardi offers a sweeping view of the accounting industry's transformation, advocating for private equity investment as a necessary catalyst for modernization. Speaking with host Dominic Piscopo, Longobardi explains how traditional partnership structures have often hindered strategic decision-making, especially in large firms where a board of ten or more can slow progress. “You've got people on the board at different ages, different objectives, and different disciplines,” he says. “A smaller circle with clear strategic goals allows partners to do what they do best: serve clients and lead people.”  MORE Dominic Piscopo MORE Pay & Compensation Longobardi also highlights how the profession's talent model is out of step with the expectations of today's workforce. “You hire a top student and tell them they'll make partner in 16 years,” he notes. “Meanwhile, their friends in finance are seeing returns now—when they're raising kids and buying houses.” Private equity, Longobardi argues, can address this by offering earlier equity opportunities and aligning incentives across generations. “We need to make accounting a profession of choice again,” he says, pointing to declining enrollment in accounting programs and the deterrent of the fifth-year requirement for CPA licensure. 

One way to examine the thinking and ruling style of Chinese President Xi Jinping: his father's role in the rise and evolution of Chinese-brand communism. Hoover research fellow Joseph Torigian, author of the recently released The Party's Interests Come First: The Life of Xi Zhongxun, Father of Xi Jinping, discusses how the elder Xi's involvement in the Red Army, economic political reform, working alongside Zhou Enlai and dealing with ethnic minorities and organized religion – plus years of political exile after running afoul of Maoist sensibilities – all play into how his son runs the modern-day Chinese Communist Party.

Many municipalities in the Free State are marred by irregularities, unauthorized expenditure, maladministration and a lack of consequence management which left many dysfunctional. That's according to Parliament's Portfolio Committee on Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (COGTA). The committee is piloting a new joint oversight model in the Free State to address persistent governance and financial underperformance in municipalities. The Auditor General's report reflected the bad performance of the 257 municipalities which also reflected that the 23 municipalities in the Free State were the worst in the country. The committee is joined by some members from Parliament's standing committees on Public Accounts (SCOPA) and the Auditor-General and the Free State legislature. Makgala Masiteng reports.

Send us a textHow do you build AI governance that scales without becoming the innovation police? In our final conversation with tech lawyer Gayle Gorvett, we tackle the ultimate balancing act facing every organization: creating robust AI oversight that moves at the speed of business. From shocking federal court rulings that could force AI companies to retain all user data indefinitely, to the Trump administration's potential overhaul of copyright law, this episode reveals how rapidly the legal landscape is shifting beneath our feet. Gayle breaks down practical frameworks from NIST and Duke University that adapt to your specific business needs while avoiding the dreaded legal bottleneck. Whether you're protecting customer data or designing the future of work, this customer success playbook episode provides the roadmap for scaling governance without sacrificing innovation velocity.Detailed AnalysisThe tension between governance speed and innovation velocity represents one of the most critical challenges facing modern businesses implementing AI at scale. Gayle Gorvett's insights into adaptive risk frameworks offer a compelling alternative to the traditional "slow and thorough" legal approach that often strangles innovation in bureaucratic red tape.The revelation about the OpenAI versus New York Times case demonstrates how quickly the legal landscape can shift with far-reaching implications. A single magistrate judge's ruling requiring OpenAI to retain all user data—regardless of contracts, enterprise agreements, or international privacy laws—illustrates the unpredictable nature of AI regulation. For customer success professionals, this uncertainty demands governance frameworks that can rapidly adapt to new legal realities without completely derailing operational efficiency.The discussion of NIST and Duke University frameworks reveals the democratization of enterprise-level governance tools. These resources make sophisticated risk assessment accessible to organizations of all sizes, eliminating the excuse that "we're too small for proper AI governance." This democratization aligns perfectly with the customer success playbook philosophy of scalable, repeatable processes that deliver consistent outcomes regardless of organizational size.Perhaps most intriguingly, the conversation touches on fundamental questions about intellectual property and compensation models in an AI-driven economy. Kevin's observation about automating human-designed workflows raises profound questions about fair compensation when human knowledge gets embedded into perpetual AI systems. This shift from time-based to value-based compensation models reflects broader changes in how customer success teams will need to demonstrate and capture value in an increasingly automated world.The technical discussion about local versus hosted AI models becomes particularly relevant for customer success teams handling sensitive customer data. The ability to contain AI processing within controlled environments versus leveraging cloud-based solutions represents a strategic decision that balances capability, cost, and compliance considerations.Gayle's emphasis on human oversight—Kevin's offeringPlease Like, Comment, Share and Subscribe.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Tshidi Madia, Associate Political Editor, as she brings sharp insight and political depth to another turbulent week in South African politics on The Political Desk. She unpacks the investigation into Kenny Kunene, found at the home of a murder accused, and questions whether this could damage his standing in Johannesburg or be another scandal he survives. They then examine President Ramaphosa’s suspension of Andrew Chauke, alleged to have enabled State Capture—probing whether this move is genuine accountability or political optics. Madia also reflects on the ousting of Nkabane and the entry of Buti Manamela into Higher Education, questioning if it's about performance or ANC factionalism. In her Politricking segment, she revisits her conversation with Helen Zille, drawing sharp contrasts between her governance vision and the current instability within the ANC. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

On this episode, Peter Boettke chats with Mark Pennington on Mark's latest book, Foucault and Liberal Political Economy: Power, Knowledge, and Freedom (Oxford University Press, 2025). Pennington argues that Foucault's ideas on self-creation, disciplinary power, and biopolitics align with key liberal concerns about social control and individual agency. He critiques how both liberals and Foucauldian critics have misunderstood or ignored these connections, and drawing on thinkers like Hayek, Buchanan, and Ostrom, he calls for a liberalism that emphasizes pluralism, resists technocratic overreach, and engages more deeply with the insights of the humanities.Dr. Mark Pennington is Professor of Political Economy and Public Policy in the Department of Political Economy at King's College London. He holds a PhD from the London School of Economics and Political Science. Pennington is currently director of the Centre for the Study of Governance and Society.If you like the show, please subscribe, leave a 5-star review, and tell others about the show!

"working with and listening to communities directly has been really fundamental"

South Korea and China have a complex relationship characterized by economic interdependence, strategic competition, and regional security concerns. Navigating this delicate balance has been a defining challenge for every South Korean president. Newly elected President Lee Jae Myung has assumed power at a time of increasing US-China strategic competition as well as uncertain global supply chains and growing threat from North Korea. Could this new administration mark a shift in Seoul's approach to Beijing? Or will President Lee maintain strategies similar to that of President Yoon?To discuss ROK-China relations, and President Lee's approach to this intricate issue, we are joined on the podcast today by Dr. Ramon Pacheco-Pardo. He is a professor of international relations at King's College London and the KF-VUB Korea Chair at the Center for Security, Diplomacy and Strategy in the Brussels School of Governance. He is also an adjunct fellow with the Korea Chair at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, and the author of several books on the domestic affairs and foreign policy of South and North Korea.  Timestamps[00:00] Start[01:44] “[P]ragmatic diplomacy centered on national interests”[05:06] State of Play for Sino-South Korean Relations[09:56] Balancing Between the United States and China[14:47] China Taking Advantage of US-ROK Frictions [19:03] Economic Interdependence as a Leverage[25:39] Xi Jinping Attending APEC South Korea 2025[31:11] American Pressure on Allies to Protect Taiwan

Sid Mangalik and Andrew Clark explore the unique governance challenges of agentic AI systems, highlighting the compounding error rates, security risks, and hidden costs that organizations must address when implementing multi-step AI processes. Show notes:• Agentic AI systems require governance at every step: perception, reasoning, action, and learning• Error rates compound dramatically in multi-step processes - a 90% accurate model per step becomes only 65% accurate over four steps• Two-way information flow creates new security and confidentiality vulnerabilities. For example, targeted prompting to improve awareness comes at the cost of performance. (arXiv, May 24, 2025)• Traditional governance approaches are insufficient for the complexity of agentic systems• Organizations must implement granular monitoring, logging, and validation for each component• Human-in-the-loop oversight is not a substitute for robust governance frameworks• The true cost of agentic systems includes governance overhead, monitoring tools, and human expertiseMake sure you check out Part 1: Mechanism design, Part 2: Utility functions, and Part 3: Linear programming.

"[Question: So what was the biggest misconception for most business leaders usually when it comes to operationalizing AI governance?] Based on my interactions and conversations, now suddenly they think they have to erect a whole set of new committees, that they have to have these new programs. You almost hear a sigh from the room. Like, oh, we have now this whole additional compliance cost because we have to do all these new things. The reason I see that as a bit of a misconception, because building on everything that was just said earlier, you already have compliance, you already have committees, you already have governance. It's an integration of that because otherwise guess what's gonna happen? We all know that this is the next thing around the corner that's gonna pop up, whatever it's gonna be called. Are you gonna have to set up a whole new committee just because of that? Then the next thing, another one." - David Hardoon Fresh out of the studio, David Hardoon, Global Head of AI Enablement at Standard Chartered Bank, joins us in a conversation to explore how financial institutions can adopt AI responsibly at scale. He shares his unique journey from academia to government to global banking, reflecting on his fascination with human behavior that originally drew him to artificial intelligence. David explains how his time at Singapore's Monetary Authority shaped the groundbreaking FAIR principles, emphasizing how proper AI governance actually accelerates rather than inhibits innovation. He highlights real-world implementations from autonomous cash reconciliation agents to transaction monitoring systems, showcasing how banks are transforming operations while maintaining strict regulatory compliance. Addressing the biggest misconceptions about AI governance, he emphasizes the importance of integrating AI frameworks into existing structures rather than creating entirely new bureaucracies, while advocating for use-case-based approaches that build essential trust. Closing the conversation, David shares his philosophy that AI success ultimately depends on understanding human behavior and asks the fundamental question every organization should consider: "Why are we doing this?" Episode Highlights: [00:00] Quote of the Day by David Hardoon #QOTD - "AI governance isn't new bureaucracy." [00:46] Introduction: David Hardoon from Standard Chartered Bank. [02:02] How David's AI journey started with human behavior curiosity. [07:26] Governance accelerates innovation, like traffic rules enable fast driving. [10:31] FAIR principles in MAS Singapore born from lunches with compliance officers. [14:23] Don't reinvent governance wheel for AI implementations. [24:17] Banks already manage risk; apply same discipline to AI. [28:40] AI adoption problem is trust, not technology. [34:21] Autonomous AI agents handle cash reconciliation with bank IDs. [36:00] AI reduces transaction monitoring false positives by 50%. [39:54] AI requires full supply chain from infrastructure to translators. [41:52] Organizations must reward intelligent failure in AI innovation. [44:47] AI hallucination is a feature, not bug for innovation. [47:35] Measure AI ROI differently for innovation versus implementation teams. [56:27] Final wisdom: People always ask "why" about AI initiatives.

“Gaslighting” is the psychological manipulation of individuals or groups into questioning their reality, memory, or sanity—often to maintain control. In a week of continuing mounting chaos in US politics marked by the meeting of the National Organization of Black County Officials in Birmingham, we can recognize that both colonialism and American institutions have gaslit Black communities into believing that our cultures, languages, and histories are inferior.New Ancestor Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o's work explains how elites from would-be oppressed groups are often recruited into tempering mass liberation movements through mental colonization in language, law, politics and economics, enabling forms of structural oppression masked as deep democracy.The critique extends to today's struggles, from myths of meritocracy to distortions of Black identity and potential power in education and demography. While selective buying campaigns remain powerful in moments, the example of Alabama's A.G. Gaston underscores that building movements anchored by independent Black institutions—banks, schools, businesses—is essential for generating sustainable power.These examples also challenge strands of Black radicalism that suffer from ideological gaslighting, leading them to reject economic self-determination and political pragmatism in favor of ideological purity—undermining efforts to deliver material gains for the poor.Real liberation requires long-view strategies, rooted in cultural self-determination, global awareness, and networked community infrastructure—not just litigation or protest, but power gleaned from purposeful creation. This is an antidote to being manipulated and trying to govern by gaslight.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
