MAHE Dubai congratulates Dr. Sunitha Prabhuram, Chairperson – Manipal School of Commerce & Management, on her latest co-authored research with industry experts: “Bring Your Own AI (BYOAI) in the Workplace: Patterns, Pitfalls, and the BYOAI-GOV™ Framework for Behavior-Aware Governance.” The paper appears in Lex Localis – Journal of Local Self-Government, a Scopus-indexed international journal (Q3 category).
The study examines how employees adopt personal AI tools at work, mapping common usage patterns and risks such as privacy, data leakage, bias and shadow AI. It proposes BYOAI-GOV™, a behavior-aware governance framework that helps organizations balance innovation with compliance, security and ethical practice.
This publication reinforces MAHE Dubai’s technology-driven excellence and emphasis on research that informs industry policy and practice.
