SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Diagnoses the industry environment using a structured, evidence-based framework to correctly classify the environment and guide downstream tooling. The approach ensures each dimension (predictability, malleability, harshness) is evidenced with explicit V/C/A/I claims and a complete routing plan is produced for orchestrated sub-skills.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured environmental diagnosis using the BCG Strategy Palette to determine Classical, Adaptive, Visionary, Shaping, or Renewal for an industry.
  • Generates a formal, causal classification sentence, a 3-dimension evidence pack, a routing matrix for seven Phase 1+2 sub-skills, and a trailing next_skills block for orchestrator routing.
  • Supports ambidexterity detection when an industry genuinely spans multiple environments across layers/geos/segments, with per-segment evidence.

Quick Start

Provide the industry slug and focal layer, then run the skill to generate the strategic-environment report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I diagnose my industry's strategic environment using the BCG Strategy Palette?

To diagnose your strategic environment, provide an industry slug and focal layer to classify predictability, malleability, and harshness. The skill outputs a formal classification (Classical, Adaptive, Visionary, Shaping, or Renewal) with causal evidence and a routing matrix.

What is the BCG Strategy Palette used for in strategic diagnosis?

The BCG Strategy Palette classifies an industry's strategic environment into five types based on predictability, malleability, and harshness. It provides a structured, evidence-based framework to guide downstream strategic tooling and routing decisions.

Can I assess strategic environments that span multiple geographies or industry layers?

Yes, the skill supports ambidexterity detection when an industry spans multiple environments across geographies, layers, or segments. It generates per-segment evidence to validate environments that genuinely require dual strategic approaches.

How do I start a strategic environment assessment for a specific industry?

Provide the target industry slug and focal layer, then run the skill. It generates a strategic environment report containing a 3-dimension evidence pack with V/C/A/I-tagged claims and a complete routing matrix for next-skill orchestration.

What evidence format does the strategic diagnosis use to support its classification?

The strategic diagnosis uses V/C/A/I-tagged evidence claims across three dimensions: predictability, malleability, and harshness. Each dimension is explicitly evidenced to produce a formal, causal classification sentence and a routing matrix.

Does the strategic environment assessment produce a routing plan for downstream analysis?

Yes, the assessment generates a complete routing matrix for seven Phase 1+2 sub-skills and a trailing next_skills block. This routing plan orchestrates downstream tooling based on the diagnosed Classical, Adaptive, Visionary, Shaping, or Renewal environment.
