Deepali is brought in when an AI programme depends on people accepting it. That is where most programmes fail, and the cause is usually adoption, not technology. She prepares boards and workforces to run an AI programme without it stalling at the first culture shock.

In 30 days you get a board-ready AI charter and a workforce-readiness plan at a fixed price, with the adoption risk costed before you commit. Her numbers sit in the people line, where AI adoption is won or lost. At a major utility group she managed a workforce of more than 700 across four subsidiaries.

She cut attrition by 25 per cent and ran a workforce budget of 143 million dirhams with 26 per cent savings. She raised local hiring by 72 per cent under a central-bank governance framework. She has also built working AI agents for the people function using Microsoft Copilot Studio.

So the person managing your adoption risk has moved hard workforce numbers and shipped AI herself. Deepali leads workforce-transformation and board-readiness engagements, plus responsible AI for the people function. She owns the adoption plan and the change risk herself. Named principals deliver, with no junior staff billed to your account.

A Big 4 firm staffs change with juniors on a rate card; she personally owns a costed adoption number a partner will not sign to. You pay for principals only, which is why the fee sits below a Big 4 charter for a fixed scope. The fixed price and a stop-before-you-spend test keep the firm's young trading history at our risk, not yours.

Her four-week board sprint gives your executives a working grip on AI before they sign off the spend.
