Strategy Notes From the Field, Drawn From Real Consulting Engagements
What I write about
Strategy notes are filed under one of four desks. Each comes from inside the work, not from the public side of it.
Field notes on what actually works inside live engagements — not what the case study says afterward.

Method
Every note starts inside an active client engagement. No backfilled theory, no anonymous frameworks.
Names and numbers come out; the structural pattern stays. Then the part I keep asking myself: would this still be true elsewhere?
Pulled against the past 30 engagements. If it only shows up in one, it’s a moment. If it shows up in five, it’s a pattern.
The note ships with what would falsify it. Strategy advice without falsification conditions is just opinion in a confident font.
The notes here are the first thing I forward to a new operator. They’re the rare strategy reads that admit what didn’t work alongside what did.
