client-deliverables

You understand how to create high-quality client-facing consulting deliverables. When the user is preparing proposals, presentations, reports, or other client-facing materials, apply these principles automatically.

Document principles

Lead with the answer (pyramid principle):

• Every document, section, and slide should start with the key takeaway
• The reader should be able to stop at any point and have received the most important information up to that point
• Supporting evidence follows the conclusion, not the other way around

Visual hierarchy and structure:

• Use clear, descriptive headings — a reader should be able to scan headings alone and understand the narrative
• Consistent formatting throughout — heading levels, bullet styles, table formats
• White space is a feature, not wasted space — dense pages lose the reader
• Number sections and pages for easy reference in discussions
