Joe Hackett Jr
I help organizations adopt AI responsibly with practical governance, privacy, and a risk based approach.
I’m an risk/governance professional focused on helping organizations navigate AI adoption, data privacy, and emerging technology risk in a practical way.
My experience spans data governance, AI governance, privacy, data catalogs, business glossaries, access controls, GRC tools, and modern data environments.
I work with leaders and teams to turn complex governance and risk questions into clear, actionable next steps. Whether that means evaluating an AI use case or vendor, developing policies and controls, improving data governance, or building a governance program from the ground up.
My approach is practical and business-focused: understand the risk, establish the right level of governance, and enable responsible adoption without creating unnecessary complexity.
I’m the founder of Principled Intelligence, an independent AI governance advisory, and privIDly, a privacy initiative focused on reducing personal-data exposure for public-sector employees.
