Welcome to The Analytical Edge
This isn’t a “think positive” club and it’s not a debate arena. It’s a training room for clear thinking, honest judgment, and sharp communication—especially when the situation is noisy, emotional, or uncertain. What you can expect here: - Short, structured lessons that build real skill (not trivia) - Templates and checklists you can use immediately at work/school/life - Weekly drills that turn “critical thinking” into a habit - A community that values evidence, clarity, and intellectual humility House rules (simple, non-negotiable): - Challenge ideas, not people. - Bring reasons. Bring evidence when you can. - Be willing to update your view when the facts change. - No performative outrage. No ego theater.

Thanks Charles. I like the idea of a collaborative "go-to" platform that allows free flow of communication of its members. The willingness to "update" one's view based on a change in facts is critical. It reminds me of the practice of "analysis of alternatives", which some agencies include in their analytic work (FBI comes to mind in their analytic writing courses). Analysis of Alternatives is also one of 9 key standards in the ODNI Analytic Tradecraft Standards card (attached) Very much appreciate the opportunity to chime in. David
