## The goal

Analysts produce decision-ready one-pagers: a board member can act within fifteen minutes, evidenced by the claim register verdict.

## What people do instead

Briefs bury the decision in inventory; claims arrive uncalibrated — either overconfident or hedged into uselessness.

## The actions that close the gap

| # | Behavior | What it looks like | Where the artifact trains it |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | **Select only cards that serve the decision** | <=5 of 12 cards chosen, each traceable to the claim | card selection |
| 2 | **Commit to one calibrated claim** | claim lands in the decision-ready register, not wrong-mechanism or inventory | claim register |
| 3 | **Frame the trade-off honestly** | one of three frames chosen with the cost named | trade-off framing |

## What this training will not do

It will not teach slide design or document formatting — the unit of training is the claim, not the layout.

## How the artifact scores the actions

Debrief scores the claim mechanism, the card-claim trace and the trade-off frame — the rewarded mechanism is named, not just the score.
