Executive AI Advisory

Private Advisory Inquiry

Advisory begins with a written inquiry rather than a call. It gives me enough context to understand the organization, what is changing, where the strain is showing, and whether a conversation is likely to be useful to either of us.

Fit

Who this is for

An established organization where:

01

AI is already arriving

Through pilots, vendors, or teams experimenting — faster than anyone has been able to structure it.

02

You hold the authority to change how decisions get made

Or direct access to the person who does.

03

The challenge is bigger than choosing a tool

AI adoption is exposing or creating questions about capacity, knowledge, workflow, decision-making, integration or authority that technology alone will not solve.

It is not a fit for technical implementation, model selection or engineering, and it is not coaching.

The inquiry

What to include

Six things. A few sentences each is enough.

Write to Melissa
  1. 01

    The organization.

    What it does, roughly how large, and your role in it.
  2. 02

    What changed.

    Why this is live now rather than a year ago.
  3. 03

    Where the strain shows.

    The decision, bottleneck or dependency that prompted this.
  4. 04

    What is already in motion.

    Tools, pilots, vendors or internal work under way.
  5. 05

    What would have to be true

    In twelve months for this to have been worth doing.
  6. 06

    Timing, and who else decides.

    When you need to move, and who else is party to the decision.

After you send it

What happens next

I read every inquiry myself. If the fit is clear I will propose a conversation. If it is not, I will say so directly, and where I can I will point you somewhere more useful.

I take a small number of advisory relationships at a time, so not every well-matched inquiry becomes an engagement.
