Planning, sales, accounting, legal, and project management (4.6K skills)
Review contracts, intellectual property, compliance, privacy, security governance, and business risks. Use it to assess a commitment, prepare for an audit, compare the exposure of business options, or record who accepts a risk and when it should be revisited.
Create and maintain an organizational risk register: describe causes and consequences, assess likelihood and impact, record controls and remaining exposure, assign owners and treatments, and gather audit evidence. Use it to evaluate decisions, prepare reports, and make explicit risk acceptance decisions.
Map how work actually moves, measure working and waiting time, and find the step that limits throughput. Redesign operations by eliminating or simplifying steps before standardizing or automating, with controls to keep improvements in place.
Organize company records and governance work, including board materials, resolutions, minutes, approval authority, insurance, continuity planning, and retention. Use it to prepare meetings, document decisions, clarify ownership, or check whether records and responsibilities are properly managed.
Design a management rhythm with clear weekly, monthly, and quarterly decisions, metric owners, and escalation paths. Use it to make reviews more useful, surface recurring problems sooner, and remove meetings that no longer guide action.
Review how personal data is collected, used, shared, and kept. Map data and purposes, check consent and vendor agreements, and prepare processes for individual requests and breaches so teams can spot privacy issues before they act.
Use this skill to forecast incoming work and compare it with realistic team or system capacity. It helps plan staffing, understand growing queues, size support or fulfillment operations, and decide whether a bottleneck needs more capacity or a smoother process.
Manage operating cash through direct cash forecasts, runway scenarios, working capital review, and assessment of bank, currency, or customer concentration. The skill helps teams track expected timing of receipts and payments and identify decisions that must happen before cash becomes constrained.
Plan and operate office and hybrid workspaces using actual attendance and room use. Review leases, workplace services, health and safety basics, and facilities incidents to help shape practical decisions about where and how people work.
Improve operational quality by defining standards customers can recognize, preventing or catching defects early, and tracing problems to causes the process can address. Plan corrective actions and process-level measures that show whether defect rates change over time.
Manage access as people join, change roles, or leave: provision accounts, review group membership, remove old permissions, and find orphaned or unused accounts. It helps teams turn identity lifecycle steps into a repeatable process.
Calculate whether each customer, account, or order contributes profit by examining variable costs, acquisition cost, payback time, and observed retention. Segment results into cohorts to guide pricing, channel investment, and the pace of growth the business can support.
Plan purchasing before a contract is signed. Define the desired outcome and constraints, run a fair supplier comparison, negotiate using total cost over time, and shape category strategy. Use it for vendor selection, RFPs, spend consolidation, or deciding how many suppliers to use.
Compare investments and major purchases using the cash flows that change with each decision, proposal-specific risk, and measures such as net present value and payback. The skill also helps compare competing requests, consider staged commitments, and review actual results against forecasts.
Build budgets and rolling forecasts, consolidate department inputs, and explain actual results against plan. Separate differences caused by volume, rates, timing, or mix, and use forecast errors over time to improve planning accuracy.
Stress-test a specific decision, plan, or idea before committing. Identify its key assumption, the strongest argument against it, dependencies, and what evidence could change the recommendation. The skill can also turn meeting notes into decisions and rank competing initiatives.
Use this skill to set organizational direction, resolve conflicts between teams, and decide what deserves limited time and funding. It produces a clear recommendation with its reasoning, costs, assumptions, evidence that could change the decision, and next steps.
Plan a funding round around milestones, compare term sheet costs beyond headline valuation, prepare diligence materials, and create a steady reporting rhythm for investors and the board. It helps founders make tradeoffs and surface problems early.
Evaluate and structure business partnerships such as technology integrations, reseller channels, joint ventures, and OEM deals. Compare partnering with building or buying, shape commercial terms, and identify why a signed alliance is not producing results.
Plan customer onboarding from contract signature through real product use. Define shared go-live criteria, staff the implementation, account for data migration and integrations, train end users, and hand context over to the ongoing relationship team.
Prepare for uncertain futures by identifying assumptions that could change a decision, building coherent scenarios, and testing a plan against each. The result separates actions to take now from conditional moves and defines signals to monitor as conditions change.
Compare business lines, products, and markets by attractiveness and your ability to win. Rank investment options by the value of the next dollar, and document funding, harvesting, or exit decisions with evidence and reversal signals.
Organize period-end close tasks, account reconciliations, accrual estimates, and variance explanations. Use it to plan a monthly close, investigate changing balances, and prepare management reports that explain what changed against a clear baseline.
Analyze fixed, variable, and mixed costs to understand product and job profitability. Compare costing methods, calculate break-even points, and separate price, volume, and sales mix effects to support pricing, sourcing, and product-line decisions.
