OODA loop decision framework (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act). Use for complex decisions, problem-solving, unclear situations, or when someone is jumping to solutions without analysis.
Use when comparing multiple named alternatives across several criteria, need transparent trade-off analysis, making group decisions requiring alignment, choosing between vendors/tools/strategies, stakeholders need to see decision rationale, balancing competing priorities (cost vs quality vs speed), user mentions "which option should we choose", "compare alternatives", "evaluate vendors", "trade-offs", or when decision needs to be defensible and data-driven.
Conduct SWOT analysis with TOWS matrix for strategic planning. Use this skill when the user needs to evaluate a company, product, or project by identifying strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, or wants to generate strategic options from internal and external factors. Also use when the user mentions competitive positioning, strategic assessment, or asks 'what are our advantages and risks', even without naming SWOT explicitly.
Think beyond immediate consequences to understand the chain reactions of decisions. Master Howard Marks' investment framework for seeing what others miss. Use when: **Strategic decisions** where long-term consequences matter; **Policy/rule changes** that will trigger behavioral responses; **Competitive moves** to anticipate market reactions; **Product decisions** where user behavior may shift; **Investment analysis** to see past obvious conclusions
Apply Porter's Value Chain Analysis to identify competitive advantage sources within an organization's activities. Use this skill when the user needs to find where value is created or lost in their operations, analyze cost structure by activity, optimize internal processes, or identify outsourcing candidates — even if they say 'where do we make money' or 'which activities should we keep in-house'.
Analyze business cycle phases (expansion, peak, contraction, trough) and their implications for business strategy and policy response. Use this skill when the user needs to identify the current economic phase, anticipate cyclical turning points, or adapt business strategy to macroeconomic cycles — even if they say 'are we heading into a recession', 'how should we prepare for a downturn', or 'when will the economy recover'.
Design and implement OKR (Objectives and Key Results) for goal-setting and strategic alignment across organizational levels. Use this skill when the user needs to set team or company goals, align departments to strategy, track quarterly progress, or transition from KPI to OKR systems — even if they say 'set our quarterly goals', 'how does OKR work', 'align team goals with company vision', or 'our goals feel disconnected'.
Identify disruption opportunities and architect business model innovation. Use when the user says "lets create an innovation strategy" or "I want to find disruption opportunities"
Produces a private strategic preparation document for the user before a meeting that matters. Captures stakes, stakeholder positions and reads, ranked desired outcomes, key messages, anticipated questions with prepared responses, risks and tensions, specific asks, and success signals. Distinct from meeting-agenda because this artifact is not shared with attendees; it is the user's personal tactical prep for meetings where positioning matters.
Produces a one-page lean canvas across nine interlocking blocks (problem, customer, UVP, solution, channels, revenue, cost, metrics, unfair advantage) with optional inline HTML and SVG visual rendering. Use when framing a new product thesis, stress-testing an existing strategy, comparing strategic options side-by-side, or aligning a team on business-model assumptions. Works as a strategic hub that cross-links to deeper PM skills without duplicating them.
Identify differences between current state and desired future state. Analyze gaps in capabilities, processes, skills, and technology to plan improvements and investments.
Business model design using Osterwalder's Business Model Canvas and Lean Canvas. Creates 9-block canvases with structured analysis for business model innovation and startup validation.
