Agentic Risk Webinar 3 of 4: Mapping Agentic Workflow Risks and Controls

Agentic workflows are not “just another AI model” – they are operational systems that can act, spend, and escalate at speed. As a result, risk is shaped as much by design choices and organisational capability as by the task the agent performs. 

In this webinar, we will explore a practical, audit-defensible agentic workflow design process that helps firms decide whether an AI agent should exist, what authority it may safely hold, and how that authority is constrained, tested, and monitored over time.

To help you move your organisation beyond demos and onto a repeatable, governable, and scalable agentic workflow, we structure the process into three phases – foundation, build, and deployment.

The outcome will be a step-by-step guide on how to design an agentic workflow using a risk-led, auditable design process, operationalised controls, and agentic key risk indicators.
