Corporate Advisory

For boards and executives who need AI implemented properly, not theorised about.

Emma spent 15+ years inside organisations like WesTrac and Caterpillar, accountable for delivering $500M+ in digital and automation programs. She's managed the budget blowouts, the team friction, the risk sign-offs, and the quarter a project nearly stalled and got it through anyway. Most consultants can talk about transformation. She's the one who's had to make it work.

A typical engagement

01

Discovery Call

A direct conversation about where AI sits in your organisation today, and where the risk and opportunity actually are.

02

Readiness Assessment

A structured review of your current AI use, governance gaps, and maturity against the BRAIN Method framework.

03

Roadmap & Governance Design

A practical governance framework and adoption roadmap built for your structure, not a generic template.

04

Embedded Delivery

Ongoing strategic partnership, leadership capability uplift, and accountability for the plan actually landing.

What's included

These can run as one connected pathway or be engaged individually, depending on where your organisation is starting from. Most engagements start with the Assessment so the rest gets scoped against real findings, not guesswork.

01 · AI Readiness Assessment

A full diagnostic of your organisation's current AI maturity, governance exposure, and where the fastest, safest wins are. Usually the starting point.

02 · AI Strategy & Governance Retainer

Ongoing strategic partnership as your organisation moves from informal AI use to a governed, adopted operating model.

03 · AI Governance Framework Design

A built-for-you governance framework covering policy, risk, approval pathways and accountability structures.

04 · Leadership & Executive Capability Uplift

Workshops and capability programs that get your leadership team fluent enough to govern AI adoption with confidence. Board briefing, half-day, or full-day formats.

Cross-Functional Use Case Bridge

Emma sits between your IT/engineering team and your Operations, Data & Digital Analytics teams, bringing the right subject matter experts into the same room to demonstrate the tech stack you've already invested in and show how high-value use cases can actually be supported across functions.

For Larger Organisations

Strategic AI Partnership

A small number of organisations work with Emma directly each year, beyond standard advisory, as an embedded strategic partner across AI governance, capability uplift and enterprise-wide adoption. This isn't a published package. It's reserved for organisations she's spoken with personally, where the scope and the relationship justify it.

Enterprise AI Maturity & Governance Partnership

A long-form, embedded engagement built for organisations operating at scale — multiple business units, complex governance, or board-level accountability for AI risk. Emma works as an extension of your leadership team, not an outside advisor parachuted in for a workshop.

  • Enterprise-wide AI maturity diagnostic across business units
  • Board and executive governance framework, built and embedded
  • Direct senior advisory access across the engagement term
  • Leadership capability uplift at scale, cascaded through your organisation
  • Accountability for adoption landing, not just the strategy being written

Scoped individually.Investment depends on scope, business units involved, and engagement length. Set after an initial conversation.

"As someone building a small Australian family business from the ground up, it's easy to think these things are only for larger businesses. Emma's guidance has shown me that's simply not true."
