Primes¶
- Realized vs Possible Outcomes
- Engineering safety — designed, reachable, and exercised state spaces give a three-level distinction on which certification operates. Organizational strategy — Mintzberg's intended versus realized strategy makes the gap the unit of strategic learning.
This sourceDistinguishes intended from realized strategy, making the gap the unit of strategic learning.

The 1985 abstract supports a deliberate/emergent strategy continuum, not the claim's 'intended vs realized' wording or that the gap is the unit of strategic learning.
“Deliberate and emergent strategies may be conceived as two ends of a continuum along which real‐world strategies lie. This paper seeks to develop this notion, and some basic issues related to strategic choice, by elaborating along this continuum various types of strategies uncovered in research.”

- Strategic Option Map
- It naturally supports deliberate, emergent strategy: committing in stages as the paths report, rather than betting everything at the first fork.
This sourcePlaces deliberate and emergent strategy at opposite ends of a continuum that accommodates real-world strategy formation.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 2 citations: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
