Strategic Brief (Async)

What You Walk Away With

When you start, the decision feels tangled and hard to resolve from inside your own perspective.
When you finish, you have a clear written call on what to do next and why.

The outcome is not a set of options. It is a written assessment of what this decision is actually about, where you may be misreading the situation, and where your real leverage sits.

You receive a reframing of the decision, pattern recognition based on how similar situations typically unfold, and one specific next move with implementation guidance.

This is not exploration or facilitation. It is a clear judgment, delivered in writing, on your timeline.

Your time commitment: 30–45 minutes to complete the questionnaire. Everything else is asynchronous.

When Is This The Right Tool?

✓ Choose this if you:

• You’re tired of thinking about this and want someone external to make the call

• Prefer written strategic analysis over conversation

• Have a clear situation that needs expert perspective

• Value deep written thinking and a reference document

• Hate unnecessary meetings (like I do)

This is not a good fit if:

• You want to talk through your thinking in real-time

• Your situation requires real-time dialogue to think things through

• You want ongoing support or check-ins

• You want reassurance rather than a clear recommendation

If the second list describes your situation, the Strategy Session + Brief or High Stakes Advisory may be a better fit.

What's included:

• You submit a detailed questionnaire and any relevant documents
• I deliver an 8–10 page written strategic analysis
• Situation assessment and pattern recognition
• Decision framework with a clear recommendation
• Specific action steps and conversation scripts
• One round of follow-up Q&A via email
• Delivered in 5–7 business days

Perfect for:

• Retention offer evaluation

• Stay vs. leave decisions

• Internal vs. external opportunity assessment

• Performance rating strategy

What Makes This Different?

I provide judgment grounded in having seen how these decisions actually play out at senior levels, repeatedly. That perspective matters when you have already done the thinking, talked it through, and still cannot see clearly what actually matters.

The value is not in more reflection. It is in seeing what you cannot see from inside your own situation and making the call accordingly.

This is not coaching. It is not therapy. And it is not generic AI advice or facilitated reflection.

Why this is an investment, not a cost:

Most people don’t regret acting on a well-judged decision. They regret waiting too long or moving on the wrong signal. A single decision such as negotiating a title, a bonus, a severance package, or choosing whether to stay or leave is often worth tens of thousands of francs over time.

The Async Brief costs a fraction of that. If it helps you secure one additional month of severance, negotiate a higher starting salary, avoid a misstep that damages your positioning, or prevents you from committing to the wrong role, it has paid for itself many times over.
