Source-confidence note
The note tells leaders how much weight the evidence should carry. It prevents confident prose from hiding thin support.
Operating model
A source-confidence note separates confirmed facts, corroboration, analyst assessment, open questions, and confidence level for executive briefings.
Purpose
Leaders need to know what is confirmed, what is inferred, where sources agree, and which open questions could change the call.
Use
Thin evidence may still deserve review when timing pressure is high, exposure is material, or the next evidence window is narrow.
Direct answers
MI frames the leadership decision, sets watch requirements, judges evidence quality, and briefs what changed, what is confirmed, what remains open, and which action the evidence supports.
Next step
Share the decision, timing pressure, and outside activity. We will review the context before responding and come prepared with the first evidence questions.
