ETHICAL AI TRAINING FOR WOMEN IN BUSINESS
Learn to use AI well while working on what matters to you
Bring an idea or challenge from your business that's been on your mind and we’ll move it forward together. While we work on it, you’ll learn how to use AI safely and thoughtfully, building an understanding you can draw on long after our time together.
HOW I CAN HELP
Someone firmly in your corner
Working for yourself can be wonderfully rewarding, but it also means there’s not always someone beside you to question an idea, notice what you may have overlooked or help you recognise just how much potential there may be in it. That’s the role I’d love to play for you.
I believe we all have a superpower, although we don’t always notice it in ourselves. If I had to name mine, it would be seeing potential, spotting what might be getting in the way and finding a practical way through.
I’ve always been deeply invested in helping women build something valuable, especially when they may not have the required skill or resources. My natural instinct has often been to roll up my sleeves, carry out the research, shape the words, design the slide deck or solve the problem. I’ve realised I get a real thrill from removing a bottleneck and helping someone move forward.
Over time, though, I could see that doing the work for someone may solve today’s problem, but it doesn’t necessarily equip her for tomorrow. The most valuable support I can give is to help a woman make progress on the work in front of her while building the skill and confidence to continue for herself, that realisation sits at the heart of how I work today.
That’s what being in your corner means to me.
What I want for you
To help you move beyond whatever has been keeping you stuck and closer to the difference you want to make.
I want you to see more possibility in what you have and feel ready to do something meaningful with it, importantly, in a way that feels true to you.
start with what you have
Your business, your question, your session
There's no standard agenda to squeeze into because every session is designed around your needs, what you're working towards and the support that would be most helpful to you.
Through a short discovery call, I'll ask a few questions to understand your business and what you'd like to explore. You may arrive with a clearly defined goal or simply a sense that something is ready to change, but you're not sure where to start. Whatever you have, that's absolutely fine and that's where we begin.
How we'll work
Learn AI whilst using it on work that matters
As an AI trainer, I'll show you what good use of AI looks like while applying it to your own business. Whatever your level of experience, I'll teach you how to to use AI safely, ethically and effectively. You’ll learn how to use AI by applying it to real work in your business, making progress on the task in front of you while building skills and confidence you can continue drawing on.
- No technical knowledge is needed. I can demonstrate, guide or work alongside you.
- I'll work at your pace and explain things in plain English. I'm a non-techie, so I speak non-techie!
- We'll use AI selectively to research, generate options, organise ideas and accelerate useful work.
Prefer to think visually?
If we meet in person, and as optional tool, we can also bring Pro.Play into the session when a more visual way of thinking would help. PLAYMOBIL Pro is a fun, hands-on approach to explore your challenge or goal. Building a thought or situation physically can reveal connections and possibilities that are difficult to reach through conversation alone. I'll only suggest it when I believe it could add something useful to your session.
- PLAYMOBIL Pro and the Pro.Play® Method is a recognised business tool used worldwide for strategy, problem-solving and innovation.
- It allows you to model out your thoughts, so you see things from a different perspective and more clearly.
- When we play, we're more engaged, creative and open to new possibilities.

ABOUT deborah
What matters to me
I know how personal running a small business can feel because I run one too. Alongside that first-hand understanding, I bring more than 30 years’ experience in leadership, training and facilitation; working amongst small and large teams. Helping women recognise and realise their potential has always been important to me and it's something I love to be part of.
As a CPD-certified AI trainer, my approach is balanced and firmly focused on protecting the creativity and human touch that make your work yours. I’ll be honest about where AI can help and where it can’t, so you can use it without losing what people value about your work.
I’m also an accredited PLAYMOBIL Pro and Pro.Play® facilitator, giving us creative and visual ways to work when it's helpful to see thinking laid out in front of us. I’ve completed the NYU Stern School of Business Certificate in Corporate Sustainability, which informs and influences the care I bring to responsible AI use and its wider impact.
By choosing to work with me, you’re also investing in a female-led small business committed to helping other women move their businesses forward. That commitment to leaving things stronger extends to the environment too. We’ve recently joined Ecologi’s Climate Action Workforce, with a subscription for every member of our team. It’s a positive first step and one we hope to build on as Akela Abbott continues to grow.
