HOW WE WORK TOGETHER
One Engagement. Clear Direction. Rooted in your Mission.
Every Pink Aspen Advisory engagement follows a single, integrated process that is designed to take your organization from AI uncertainty to confident, responsible adoption. Each phase builds on the last, moving from honest assessment through vision, strategy, and into sustainable change.
A typical engagement timeline is 12–16 weeks for Phases 1–3. Implementation and sustain timelines vary.
The Assess phase is a structured evaluation of where your organization truly stands today.
I examine your leadership alignment, data infrastructure, staff capacity, technology posture, and organizational readiness for change. The result is a clear, candid picture of your starting point, and the gaps that need to close before AI adoption can succeed.
Assess
What you walk away with: A comprehensive AI Readiness Report including a capability assessment, gap analysis, and prioritized recommendations for your leadership team.
Envision
Research consistently shows that organizations with strong leadership alignment and a bold AI vision significantly outperform those without. The Envision phase is where that vision gets built, bringing your executive team into genuine alignment around how you will become an AI first organization.
This is also where we address the gaps that derail most implementations before they start: the distance between what leadership believes and what staff experience, and the difference between implementing AI and actually realizing its potential.
What you walk away with: A documented AI Vision Statement and AI Leadership Alignment Summary capturing your team's shared commitments and decision rights.
Plan
The Plan phase translates your AI vision into a concrete, board-ready roadmap your whole organization can execute with confidence.
This is where strategy becomes structure. I work with your leadership team to define priorities, sequence initiatives, and establish the governance frameworks that will guide responsible AI adoption across your organization. Critically, this phase also builds the change management architecture your people need because research consistently shows that the gap between AI installation and AI realization is almost always a people problem, not a technology problem.
Every recommendation is grounded in your mission, your capacity, and your values.
What you walk away with: An AI Strategy & Roadmap, AI Governance Framework, Prosci®-informed Change Management Plan, and Board-Ready Presentation Package.
For organizations ready to move from planning to action, we offer implementation partnership through a network of select technical partners while maintaining independent governance and strategic oversight throughout.
Implement
OPTIONAL ADD ON
What you walk away with: Vendor Evaluation & Selection Guidance and Strategic Implementation Oversight throughout execution.
Sustain
AI adoption isn't a destination. It's an ongoing organizational capability that has to be built, maintained, and continuously adapted as the technology evolves.
The Sustain phase activates the governance infrastructure, builds internal AI fluency, and establishes the structures that keep your organization accountable to its values long after the engagement ends. This is where change management becomes culture. embedding new ways of working at every level of the organization so that adoption is lasting, not just launched.
What you walk away with: Governance Activation & Ongoing Oversight Plan, AI Impact Measurement Framework, and optional Executive Advisory Retainer for continued thought partnership and support.
Every engagement begins with a conversation. Let's talk about where your organization is and what a Pink Aspen Advisory engagement could look like for you.
