AI Policy & Public Affairs
We Help You Respond to AI's Dynamic Public Policy Environment
There’s no AI regulator coming to set the rules for your organization. The truth is that the technology is evolving at an unprecedented pace, making it difficult for any regulatory system to keep up. While banning the use of AI might appear to be a solution, in reality, it only pushes unsanctioned use further out of view.
Standing still or waiting for regulation only accelerates the growing digital divide between those who benefit from the technology and those left behind. Embrace your role as the default regulator by designing the policies and programs your organization, team or community needs to adopt AI responsibly. By crafting your own rulebooks and guardrails, you can promote transparency and understanding and refine what responsible use looks like for your staff, data, and the people you serve.
Dragon Fruit Consulting helps purpose-driven organizations lead with confidence by developing sound AI policies, designing AI literacy programs, and navigating a policy landscape that’s moving faster than legislative change.
With decades working for and with governments, Dragon Fruit Consulting applies a unique community lens to helping you build AI policies and programs to achieve your objectives and position your organization for long-term success.
Public Affairs & Government Engagement
In the age of social media and heightened scrutiny, stakeholder trust is the currency required for success. For organizations navigating government or complex stakeholder environments, a proactive engagement strategy is crucial.
With decades working for and with governments, the Dragon Fruit team helps you build engagement programs that protect your interests, secure policy outcomes and position your organization for long-term success.
Government and policy initiatives can fail if they are too one sided, don’t have clear value to the public or are perceived as too complicated.
We help demystify the public affairs landscape and work with you to create meaningful engagement with a focus on the benefits to stakeholders and the public good. Successful public policy and government initiatives rely on understanding people, focuses on storytelling and highlights the value to the public. Complex initiatives benefit from building a coalition of “the willing” to make advancements. Being proactive and intentional about your public affairs and engagement strategy is critical to your success.
The Dragon Fruit team has spent decades working in complex stakeholder environments, often working for, or with, government agencies. We have built and executed stakeholder and government engagement programs to build long-term trust, secure policy changes and manage issues. We have the insight and experience to help effectively advance your public policy objectives.
Responsible AI Use Policy Development
Your team may already be using AI tools, with or without guardrails.
We work with leadership to develop a practical Responsible AI Use Policy tailored to your work environment, with clear rules for data handling, tool selection, and human oversight that protect your organization and the people you serve without dampening your team’s innovative spirit.
AI Literacy Program Design
Governments, institutes, associations and funders are investing in AI literacy.
We work with organizations to design AI literacy curriculum and training programs that bring their members, communities or workforces along in the AI transition.
