From Complexity to Clarity

I help subject matter experts in the public sector turn complex thinking into clear, decision-ready documents.

When key information is scattered across notes, drafts, emails, and meetings – and there’s no time to step back and make sense of it – I provide the structure, judgment, and drafting support you need to move it forward with confidence.

I also help public sector professionals and consultants to use AI more effectively in their day-to-day work.

For public sector staff and consultants who want to use AI confidently in their daily work

AI Workshops

This practical training helps you understand how to use AI confidently in your work, or to expand the range of ways you are currently using it.

Individual AI Support

We work together to identify how AI could help you within a project or process. Then I develop a step-by-step playbook for you to use on an ongoing basis, with prompts and AI tools for your ongoing use.

AI prompt writing workshops

“Debra provided a series of AI prompt writing workshops for our team of 28, all of whom work in technical fields involving complexity and lengthy processes. The feedback from the team was that the sessions were very relevant and useful for their work. Being able to compare experiences some time after the initial workshop helped reinforce the learning and provide new ways to apply AI in our work. Debra’s approach was clear, engaging, and tailored to our needs—she made a complex topic accessible and fun.

In short, Debra’s AI prompt writing workshops were engaging, practical and inspiring. Our team left with clear tools to boost creativity and efficiency – highly recommended!”

Jacqui Irwin

Team Lead, Management Planning, Department of Conservation

Using AI to support report writing

 “Exceptional — within 40 minutes, a complicated report I’ve been labouring over is clear and concise, in a sensible order … These tools are at the cutting edge of report writing, could be the mainstay of best practice and make life a lot easier for Council Officers and the Governance team.  I found Debra and her tools invaluable to be able to upskill independently and to demonstrate Continuing Professional Development, outside of organisational training.”
