The AI committee always arrives second
Companies form an AI committee after employees already use AI daily. University of Melbourne research covering 48,000 workers in 47 countries found 58% use AI at work and 57% hide it. The committee exists to catch up, and that changes who sits on it and what it does first.

Most AI steering committees fail because they are designed to discuss, not decide. ISO/IEC 42001 requires clear decision-making authority over the AI lifecycle, and IAPP research finds 77% of organizations still building their AI governance. The difference between effective and ineffective committees is not expertise - it is authority.
