Governance Clarity in an AI-Exposed World
Governance and risk judgement for public bodies, regulated organisations and boards navigating reputational, regulatory and AI-driven exposure.

How I Help
Governance & Decision Integrity
When decisions could be challenged - by regulators, media, stakeholders or future investigations – I help leaders make calls that stand up to scrutiny.
I bring clarity to complex situations, strengthen oversight, and ensure decisions are defensible, proportionate and grounded in reality, not politics or panic.
Risk & Reputation
When exposure is rising and the noise is getting louder, I identify what’s genuinely at risk and what’s a distraction.
I help organisations stabilise quickly, reduce escalation, and respond in a way that protects credibility - internally and externally.
Not spin. Not performance. Containment and control.
Behaviour & Vulnerability
Most complex risk situations involve people - vulnerable individuals, whistleblowers, leadership conflict, emotionally charged cases.
I help teams interpret behaviour accurately, avoid misjudgement, and make balanced decisions that hold up ethically, legally and reputationally.
This is where governance meets human reality. And where mistakes are often made.
About Me; Trish
I’m the calm in the chaos.
The truth in the noise.
The adult in the room.
I’m a governance-led risk and reputation adviser working with regulated organisations, public bodies and lenders navigating scrutiny - including the growing exposure created by AI-supported decision-making.
With experience spanning statutory oversight, regulated financial environments and high-pressure public systems, I help leaders ensure their decisions remain defensible when challenged.
No theatre. No spin. Just clarity under pressure.

I’m brought in when situations are sensitive, politically exposed, or heading in the wrong direction.
I’ve supported:
-
Regulatory investigations
-
Reputational crises
-
Leadership failures
-
Operational breakdowns
-
Media scrutiny
-
Stakeholder and board conflict
I don’t do theatre.
I don’t do jargon.
I don’t tell people what they want to hear.
I tell them what they need to know - and what to do next.
Why My Perspective Is Different
Alongside my advisory work, I run Repossession Rescue - supporting individuals facing the human and mental health consequences of systemic and organisational failure.
That work keeps my judgement grounded in real-world impact. It gives me insight many board-level advisers never see: how governance decisions land in practice, not just on paper.
It’s why my advice is practical, proportionate and rooted in reality.
The Governance Exposure Diagnostic
A confidential, senior-level assessment of what’s really going on.
This is not a workshop.
Not a slide deck.
Not a PR exercise.
It’s where leaders speak openly about:
-
The risks no one is formally documenting
-
The issues being softened internally
-
The decisions that could be exposed later
What you get:
-
A clear map of actual exposure
-
Blind spots and decision vulnerabilities
-
Immediate stabilisation priorities
-
A practical plan you can act on straight away
Fast. Focused. Confidential.
Review the Governance Exposure DiagnosticWhy Leaders Bring Me In
They bring me in when:
- A decision needs to be defensible
- Internal advice feels compromised or incomplete
- A situation is becoming politically sensitive
- Reputational risk is rising
- A vulnerable or complex case needs experienced judgement
- They cannot afford a misstep
- Often, they can sense something isn’t right — but they need clarity before it escalates.
That’s where I work best.
Start a Confidential Conversation.
If a situation feels exposed, fragile or potentially high-impact, waiting rarely improves it.
The first step is a calm, honest conversation.
No pressure.
No grand proposals.
No performance.
Just clarity on what’s really at stake — and what to do next.
