Your organisation is already using AI. Some of it you chose. Some of it arrived inside tools you already had, or in the hands of people who found it useful. Either way, you now have AI to govern, and a new law that expects you to. Governance sounds like a burden built for someone far larger than you. It is not. In AI: Bowling Bumpers, A Business Leader's Practical Guide to AI Governance, Stephen Redmond sets out what the EU AI Act actually asks of an ordinary business, and how to meet it without a compliance department. This is the third book in the series that began with AI: Curious to Capable and continued with AI: Capability Delivered. You don't need to have read either one. Inside the book: What the EU AI Act actually requires of an ordinary business, in plain English. Finding the AI you already run, including the Shadow AI you suspect is there. Right-sizing the programme to your organisation, from a fifteen-person firm to a multinational. The one-page policy, the small council, and the decision rights that make governance hold. The permissions problem that surprises organisations on day one, when a tool like Copilot or Gemini makes every loose folder searchable. AI literacy, and what Article 4 asks of you. Deployer obligations under Article 26, and when the duty hardens for high-risk systems. Where other laws set the floor, including NIS2. Recording, transcription, and GDPR, handled as a governed practice. The penalties, in brief, and why smaller organisations are treated proportionately. Your first ninety days, and your first twelve months. The people who carry governance day to day, the Champions, Bridgebuilders, and Sentinels. You will follow ACME, a fictional company, through the political, technical, and human work of governing AI. ACME is invented. The situations are not. Who this book is for: The business leader who knows AI needs governing and doesn't know where to begin. The owner of a small or mid-sized firm with no legal or compliance department. The board member or director asking whether the organisation is exposed. Anyone responsible for AI in an organisation that is not a multinational.
