Private Assessment
Most analysis here is public. For decisions that can't be evaluated publicly (upcoming acquisitions, leadership transitions, rebrands, crisis response), I provide confidential narrative risk assessment.
Pricing reflects the gravity of the decision and the cost of getting it wrong. Not billed by the hour. Not billed by page count. Each engagement is scoped around a specific decision where narrative contradictions could undermine trust, strategy, or execution.
