North Yorkshire's Police and Crime Commissioner is due to face the county's police panel later for the first time since allegations of bullying were made against her.
A report has concluded that Julia Mulligan had displayed "bullying behaviour" towards members of staff.
Two days ago, she faced a separate allegation and the report from that meeting will be made public at a later date.
Mrs Mulligan says she is "truly sorry" anything she may have said or done could be perceived in the way described by the complainant and has accepted the panel's recommendations.
However, to draw the conclusions the members of the police panel have is "regrettable and disappointing", she says.
"Were there a mechanism to appeal, I would certainly do so."

Today is World Diabetes Day, BBC News has been speaking to families affected by the condition and asked how loved ones can make all the difference.
Image source, Hannah PostleHannah Postles, 33, from Sheffield (pictured right), was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes in 2011.
She said her family, boyfriend Andrew and her friends had been a "massive support" in adapting to her new life with the condition.
"My diagnosis came completely out of the blue and I would have really struggled without their support," she said.
"In 2013, I ended up seriously ill in hospital with Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) a few days after my sister's wedding.
"I didn't show up for work one morning and my colleagues sent someone round to my flat to check on me.
"I was found collapsed and woke up in intensive care two days later.
"I was extremely lucky that my work friends understood just how serious diabetes can be and raised the alarm. If they hadn't, I might not be here now."
Ms Postles' sister Ellie Seaton cancelled her honeymoon and the family stayed in a hotel near the hospital.
"Once I was discharged, I went to stay with my sister while I was recovering and, once I was back home, my friends were constantly visiting and checking that I was OK.
"Living with diabetes can be difficult at times, but the support of family and friends makes it a lot easier."
