Executive Brief System Skill
When to Use
- Delivering forecast updates to ELT or board audiences.
- Summarizing revenue risks/opportunities with clear asks.
- Packaging meeting-ready decks or memos that pull from forecast + variance analysis outputs.
Framework
- Audience Lens – capture what the audience cares about (growth, margin, cash, runway) and tailor tone.
- Story Arc – set context, state the headline (ahead/behind), outline drivers, and present mitigation plan.
- Evidence Layer – include key charts/tables with consistent formatting + footnotes.
- Decision & Ask – specify what approval, resource shift, or unblock is needed.
- Appendix & Audit Trail – link to deeper dashboards, logs, and forecast files for transparency.
Templates
- One-slide executive summary (headline, numbers, drivers, actions).
- Board memo outline (context, highlights, lowlights, requests).
- Risk register snippet for ongoing tracking.
Tips
- Use consistent metric definitions and color-coding to avoid confusion.
- Keep main section under one page/slide, move detail to appendix.
