Our Approach
Private structure for public clarity.
You don’t need more advice.
You need a way to think.
When the stakes are high, most people are surrounded by smart advisors — lawyers, accountants, board members, consultants. But no one is responsible for helping them think clearly under pressure.
That’s what we do.
We provide behind-the-scenes structure for complex, high-stakes decisions.
We don’t tell clients what to do. We help them define what matters, prepare for what’s next, and coordinate their team around a strategy they actually believe in.
Three Pillars for Effective Negotiating
5-Stage Decision Framework
The 5-Stage Process
We use a simple, repeatable framework that works across divorces, exits, transitions, and moments of crisis.
Stage 1 – Compass & Bucket List
We start by helping you define what a good outcome looks like.
Then we map out every unresolved issue — across legal, financial, and relational domains.
Deliverables:
Compass Summary
Negotiation Bucket List
Stage 2 – Reality & Gaps
We strip out assumptions and gather verifiable facts.
We identify what’s missing, what’s unclear, and what roles are misaligned.
Deliverables:
Current-Picture Map
Missing-Info Tracker
Strategy & Bias Notes (if relevant)
Stage 3 – Cost-of-Yes/No
We model tradeoffs.
No predictions — just time, money, and emotional consequences of each major option.
Deliverable:
Scenario Sheet
Stage 4 – Checklist & Ask Prep
We prepare for key conversations with structure, not scripts.
We clarify what to ask for, how to say it, and what to track.
Deliverables:
Negotiation Checklist
Communication Agenda & Script
Stage 5 – Event & Debrief
We support you before, during, and after major events.
Every outcome feeds the next step.
Deliverables:
Quick-Hit Decision Log
Debrief & Next-Ask Plan
Why it works
Most decision failures are clarity failures.
Our approach slows things down just enough to move deliberately — even when timing is tight.
You don’t need to move fast. You need to move on purpose.
Next Step: Private Strategy Call
If you’re ready to step out of overwhelm and into a calm, structured decision process:
- No commitments
- No exposure
- No noise
Just clear, private strategy when everything else feels loud.
