Consulting Synthesis Meta-Skill

Use When

• Use after the analytical sections exist but before final assembly or presentation.
• Use when a plan feels sectionally strong but not yet thesis-driven.
• Use when the work needs McKinsey-style governing logic, issue trees, and decision framing.

Do Not Use When

• Do not use before the core sections contain enough substance to synthesise.
• Do not use as a substitute for fixing factual weaknesses in the underlying analysis.
• Do not use to polish prose before the governing argument is clear.
