Develop evidence-backed points of view, white papers, case studies, industry briefs, and research reports for a consulting audience. Use to turn research or permitted engagement experience into a useful, defensible argument.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Thought Leadership

Produce a useful perspective that a practitioner can defend and act on. Match the user's audience, publication format, voice, length, and business purpose. A thesis earns its place through evidence and decision relevance; it does not need to be provocative or contrarian.

Use the research, firm experience, and approved cases provided. Identify missing evidence and draft what is supportable. Ask only when a missing answer determines the piece's meaning or permitted use. Do not invent engagement counts, research findings, quotes, customer results, or claims about what other firms have observed.

## Develop the thesis

State the argument and where it applies. Identify the decision it changes, the mechanism, the boundary conditions, and the strongest supported alternative explanation. A broad trend summary may need a sharper question; do not manufacture disagreement to make it distinctive.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add anotb/management-consulting-plugin/thought-leadership@sha256:f4a4d1c4d02b88b7

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.3.1, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
