**Talk Description**:
As enterprises race to deploy autonomous AI agents, much of the industry conversation remains focused on model capabilities: reasoning, planning, tool use, and autonomy. Yet the greatest barrier to successful adoption may not be intelligence at all. It is governance. Unlike traditional AI systems that primarily generate recommendations, agentic systems execute actions across interconnected business processes, data platforms, and operational workflows. In such environments, failures rarely originate from model limitations alone. They emerge from hidden dependencies, inconsistent data, unclear ownership, inadequate observability, and the absence of effective operational controls.
