Look closerTHE COST OF A BAD READ
THE WORDS
ARE CLEAR.THE MOTIVE ISN’T.
You have the facts. But who benefits? Why the urgency? And whose version of events are you accepting?
A poor read can cost you money, credibility, or room to act. Saito File examines the human forces behind the request, so you can question the frame before choosing your response.
WHY NOW?THE SAITO FILE APPROACH
Read the case. Find the mechanism. Test your judgment.
Read the public case first. Red File takes you into the exercises and techniques that follow.A CASE IN HUMAN JUDGMENT
The room that wasn’t there.
The meeting was real. The people on the screen were not. Verification was requested. It was never originated.
Now make your move
The room and the people in it are a reconstruction; the case is real.
BEFORE YOU READ
You are in the chair.
What do you do?
The chief financial officer is on the screen. Colleagues you recognise, nodding at the right moments. The instruction is to move the money.
From File 001YOUR NEXT MOVE
Make a choice. Then examine the mechanism.
