SECTION 1: COVER
From Experience to Authority
Designing a High-Trust Advisory Platform for Nicholas Harvey, PhD in an AI-Driven Leadership Environment
Private Advisory Briefing
Prepared by Pamela Chance of PamelaChance.AI
Why This Moment Is Different for You
For decades, Nicholas Harvey has worked at the intersection of leadership, learning, culture, and institutional change.
Higher education and teaching
Ministry and moral leadership
Executive and organizational consulting
Policy-adjacent and cross-sector environments
The throughline has never been tools. It has been judgment, discernment, and the ability to guide people through complexity.
AI does not replace this work. It raises the stakes for it.
AI Is Not the Strategy
AI is the environment leaders now operate within.
The real disruption is:
Decision compression
Cultural instability
Leadership credibility erosion
Misalignment between speed and wisdom
This is where your experience becomes more valuable, not less.
A High-Trust Advisory Platform
A high-trust advisory platform is not consulting in the traditional sense.
Clients are not paying for:
  • Technical AI expertise
  • Training programs
  • Frameworks or templates
  • Content production
They are paying for:
  • Discernment
  • Contextual judgment
  • Leadership clarity
  • Calm decision-making under pressure
This aligns precisely with how you have always operated — now formalized and priced correctly.
Your Lane Is Already Clear
Your authority sits at the intersection of:
Leadership and culture during periods of disruption
Decision-making when moral, organizational, and human stakes are high
Guiding leaders through change without destabilizing people
Translating complexity into coherence
AI is the backdrop. Human leadership is the work.
HOW YOU DESCRIBE WHAT YOU DO
Your One-Sentence Positioning
Primary Statement
"I advise leaders and institutions on decision-making, culture, and execution as AI-driven change puts real pressure on organizations."
Alternate (Conversational)
"I work with leaders on how decisions are actually made when AI changes the ground beneath their organizations."
These statements are intentionally accurate, restrained, and credible.
What You Are Offering: A time-bound, high-trust advisory engagement that gives senior leaders direct access to your judgment, perspective, and decision-making support as they navigate leadership, culture, and execution challenges in the context of AI-driven change.
This is advisory, not coaching or consulting.
Structure:
  • Time-bound engagement (60–90 days)
  • Access to your thinking
  • Regular advisory conversations
  • Support at live decision points
The primary deliverable is not documentation. It is clarity and confidence in leadership decisions.
ENGAGEMENT VS RETAINER
How the Work Is Structured
Advisory Engagement (Primary Entry)
  • Clear beginning and end
  • Fixed, premium fee
  • Focused outcomes
  • Builds trust naturally
Advisory Retainer (Later Phase)
  • Ongoing access
  • Monthly relationship
  • Trusted advisor role
Engagements create trust. Retainers sustain it.
HOW CONVERSATIONS BEGIN
Outreach That Fits Your Voice
"Hi [Name], I've been doing focused advisory work around leadership, culture, and decision-making as AI-driven change starts to create real pressure. I'm having a few thoughtful conversations with people I respect to compare notes on what's emerging. If it's useful, I'd welcome 30 minutes."
This is not sales outreach. It is professional reconnection.
HOW CLIENTS EMERGE: ACTION REQUIRED
This Is Relationship-Led by Design
This platform grows through:
Credibility
Conversation
Trust
Near-term focus:
  • 10–15 meaningful conversations
  • 3–5 aligned leaders or institutions
  • 1–2 paid advisory engagements
One aligned engagement validates the platform.

SECTION 12: CHATGPT AS AN EXECUTIVE THINKING PARTNER
Using AI Without Diluting Authority
ChatGPT is not a content engine for you.
It functions as:
A thinking partner
A pressure-testing tool
A synthesis assistant
A decision-clarity accelerator
You are not outsourcing judgment. You are extending it.
MINDSET AND OUTCOMES
Why This Model Fits You
Each engagement:
Strengthens confidence
Refines language
Increases fee tolerance
Generates aligned referrals
This platform compounds quietly, credibly, and sustainably.
SECTION 14: CLOSING
The Only Focus Now
This phase is not about scale or visibility.
It is about:
Conversations over content
Confidence over volume
Authority over activity
One aligned engagement changes everything.

AI Operating Prompts
Private Use | Advisory Context
These prompts position ChatGPT as an executive thinking partner for Nicholas Harvey, PhD—not a content generator or technical assistant.
How to Use This Section
These prompts are designed to position ChatGPT as an executive thinking partner, not a content generator or technical assistant.
They are used to:
Clarify judgment
Pressure-test decisions
Prepare for high-stakes conversations
Maintain advisory posture
AI is the context. Judgment is the value.
1. Positioning Clarity
Use when articulating what you do to senior leaders
"You are acting as a senior executive advisor.
Based on my background as Nicholas Harvey, PhD — with experience in leadership development, higher education, ministry, organizational consulting, and policy-adjacent work — help me clearly articulate my advisory value in one concise paragraph for senior leaders navigating AI-driven change.
Focus on judgment, leadership, culture, and decision-making. Avoid tools, training, or hype. Use executive-level language."
2. Decision Framing
Use when a client presents a complex issue
"Act as a trusted senior advisor.
Help me frame the key decision points in this situation, including:
  • The real decision being made (not the surface issue)
  • The risks of each option
  • The leadership implications
  • The cultural impact of each choice
Assume the audience is a senior executive or institutional leader."
3. Pressure-Testing Advice
Use before offering a recommendation
"You are a thoughtful but skeptical executive peer.
Pressure-test the recommendation I am considering. Identify:
  • Where my logic may be incomplete
  • What assumptions I may be making
  • How a cautious executive might challenge this view
  • What clarifications would strengthen my position
Do not rewrite the recommendation. Help me think more clearly."
4. Advisory Conversation Preparation
Use before an important meeting
"Act as a senior leadership advisor preparing me for a high-level conversation.
Based on this context, help me:
  • Identify the three most important questions to ask
  • Anticipate what may not be said directly
  • Clarify the strategic posture I should hold
  • Avoid overexplaining or overselling
The goal is clarity, not persuasion."
5. Post-Meeting Synthesis
Use immediately after a meeting
"Help me synthesize this conversation.
Identify:
  • The core themes that emerged
  • The underlying concerns beneath the stated issues
  • The real decisions the leader is facing
  • Where advisory support would add the most value
Summarize using executive-level language."
6. Outreach Message Refinement
Use when reconnecting with senior contacts
"Based on my background as Nicholas Harvey, PhD, help me refine this outreach message so it sounds natural, senior, and non-salesy.
  • Keep it concise.
  • Maintain professional restraint.
  • Ensure it invites conversation, not commitment."
7. Pricing Confidence Check
Use when evaluating or second-guessing fees
"Act as a senior advisor.
Help me evaluate whether this advisory fee aligns with:
  • The level of judgment required
  • The consequences of the decision
  • The seniority of the client
  • The value of clarity and risk reduction
Do not default to lowering the fee."
8. Role Discipline
Use when requests drift toward execution
"Help me determine whether this request falls within an advisory role or an execution role.
If it is execution, help me articulate a clear boundary while maintaining trust, authority, and the relationship."
9. Framing AI Correctly
Use when AI comes up in conversation
"Help me frame AI appropriately in this conversation.
I do not sell AI tools or training.
I advise leaders on judgment, culture, and decision-making in the context of AI-driven change.
Provide language that is accurate, credible, and non-technical."
90-Day Executive Self-Check
Use monthly or quarterly
"Act as a senior advisor reviewing my last 30 days.
Help me assess:
  • Whether my actions align with a high-trust advisory posture
  • Where I may be overworking or under-positioning myself
  • What one adjustment would most improve outcomes in the next 30 days
Be direct, grounded, and practical."
Closing Note
These prompts are not designed to make you busier.
They are designed to protect your judgment, reinforce your authority, and sharpen your leadership presence.
AI is the environment. Discernment is the advantage.
