Doctrine 24: Stewardship Places the Burden on the Steward, Not the Parties

Last Updated: January 3, 2026

Stewardship vs. Optimization: Preserving What Cannot Be Allowed to Fail Why mission-critical systems require stewards, not just managers Organizations optimize for efficiency. Leaders optimize for performance. Stewards optimize for preservation of mission-critical capability. The distinction matters because stewardship and optimization often point in opposite directions. Stewardship accepts higher cost and lower efficiency to preserve what...

Doctrine 09 Companion: Artifacts Over Adjectives

Last Updated: December 29, 2025

Doctrine Companion to Decision Altitude There is a quiet lie that shows up in a lot of org charts and LinkedIn profiles. We act like skills live in adjectives. These words float near job titles and performance reviews. They are rarely tied to anything you can point at. If your skill only exists as an...

Doctrine 03 Companion: The RS-CAT Framework: Converting Raw Recall into Teachable Principle

Last Updated: January 10, 2026

Doctrine Claim: Knowledge transfer in mission-critical environments is a process of signal extraction, not information dumping. The RS-CAT Framework is the specific methodology used to bypass the “Expert Blind Spot,” the psychological reality where a practitioner cannot see the architecture of their own expertise while operating inside it. By re-indexing unstructured event data into pedagogical...

Doctrine 03 Companion: The Interface Void

Last Updated: December 25, 2025

Doctrine Claim: High-resolution mental models are a dangerous luxury when they have never been tested against a low-resolution reality. The Interface Void is the technical debt of unearned knowledge: it is the gap between a stored sentence (recognition) and a working capability (execution). Bridging this void is not an informational task; it is an operational...

Doctrine 03 Companion: Constraints: bidirectional translation: Compression vs Construction

Last Updated: December 25, 2025

This Doctrine Companion guide presents different ways of thinking and different structures to fit those needs. Constraint 1: Construction Before Compression Some thinkers require time to construct the model before they can accurately compress it into conclusions, summaries, or decisions. For these thinkers: When forced to compress first, accuracy degrades. When allowed to construct first,...

Doctrine 11 Companion: Agency vs. Outcome

Last Updated: December 22, 2025

Companion to Numbered Doctrine 11: Preventive and Contingent Action In a Contact Environment, the system always has a vote. Whether you are managing a fire line, a medical crisis, or a crashing server, reality possesses its own agency and can push back with overwhelming force. There is a common fallacy (often pushed by those in...

Doctrine 10 Companion: Span of Control and Cross Training Are Load-Bearing Constraints

Last Updated: December 12, 2025

TLDR (Read This First) Organizations fail when they expect humans to track, decide, and support more than their cognitive limits allow. Most people can reliably manage three to seven direct relationships, decisions, or workstreams. Beyond that, performance degrades and risk rises. Span of control and cross training are not management preferences.They are human constraints that...

Doctrine 21 Companion: Claims, Roles, and Entitlements in Microsoft 365

Last Updated: December 14, 2025

Companion to: Doctrine 21: Zero Trust Is A Trust Model, Not A Card “Type” This page is a Doctrine Companion. It hangs off Doctrine 21 and gives you a shared vocabulary for identity and access in Microsoft 365, so that zero trust conversations do not dissolve into word salad. Use it when you are: Don’t...

Field Report: College Financing and the 5-Year Home Runway

Last Updated: December 14, 2025

A First-Principles Analysis of Landed Costs, Cash Flow, and Optimal Pathways Claim: “The advice that worked for your parents’ generation is now structurally impossible. Most parents don’t know this yet. Most students find out too late. This analysis documents what actually works under current conditions, using probability modeling instead of hope.” Last updated: December 2025...

Doctrine 23: Loop Closure as Load-Bearing System Infrastructure

Last Updated: December 12, 2025

Doctrine claim: Loop closure is not about politeness; it is about physics. In any system (digital or human) an open loop consumes resources (memory, attention, bandwidth). This guide defines Acknowledgment as Infrastructure: the specific protocols required to clear cognitive RAM and enable high-tempo coordination without burnout. Loop closure turns intent into coordinated action by freeing...
