The Work
Research confirms it. Most organisations in high-trust industries have documented AI policies. What they do not have is governance that functions when a senior leader is in the room under pressure, when the timeline has compressed, and when the team has already committed to a direction.
The problem is not the absence of AI policy. The problem is the absence of accountability that holds under pressure — governance with a person's name on every decision.
"Responsibility that cannot be named is already diffused."
Built on what the Authority Audit surfaces. This is not a framework applied uniformly across organisations — it is governance designed around the specific operations, decisions, and people of your business.
Stage 2 establishes the governance structure: clear ownership of every AI decision, named accountability at each stage, boundaries that hold when the organisation is under pressure, and the documentation that makes deliberate choice visible and defensible.
Stage 3 trains the council — the people inside your organisation who will hold this governance day to day. Not a workshop. A structured process that ends when the people responsible for governance can exercise it without external support.
Ongoing governance counsel. I serve as the objective chair of your council — the person who holds the governance framework steady when pressure returns, which it always does.
This engagement covers one specific operational area of your business, with quarterly review and structured analysis of how governance is functioning against the standards we established together.
The retainer model exists because governance is not a deliverable. It is a practice. And practices require sustained, objective oversight to remain effective as an organisation's AI use evolves.
For organisations operating in the Netherlands and across the EU, the regulatory environment is no longer theoretical. Fines reach up to €35 million or 7% of global annual turnover. The compliance obligation is real and growing.
The Protypa Council™ addresses what compliance alone cannot answer. Regulatory requirements tell you what you must document. They do not tell you how to remain in authority over the decisions that define what your business is — particularly when those decisions are being made under pressure, by people who are moving fast.
"Not every AI decision deserves acceleration. Some deserve refusal."
Compliance creates a floor. The Protypa Council™ raises what happens above it — building the leadership and accountability structures that protect your business not just from regulators, but from the slower erosion that no audit will catch.
Thirty minutes. Built around your specific situation. If there is a clear path forward, you will leave with it.
