Critical Thinking and Business Logic Meta-Skill

Overview

Use this meta-skill as the business-plan suite's thinking and achievability gate. It turns critical thinking, essential questions, mental models, design thinking, and strategic reasoning into practical tests for market logic, revenue logic, cost logic, operating reality, funding fit, risk, and implementation feasibility.

Use When

• Use before drafting serious business-plan sections where the business model, market, operations, financials, funding ask, risk, sustainability, or implementation logic matters.
• Use after section drafts exist but before meta-consulting-synthesis, meta-financial-stress-test, meta-bankability-scoring, meta-due-diligence, or 00-plan-assembly.
• Use when a plan sounds polished but may not yet make logical, commercial, operational, or financing sense.
• Use when assumptions are thin, numbers feel optimistic, or recommendations need stronger evidence and reasoning.
