  "summary": "Results-focused framework that demonstrates impact through concrete examples.",
  "description": "A results-focused framework that demonstrates impact through a concrete example: the Situation, the Task you were responsible for, the Actions you took, and the measurable Result. The tone is evidential: every claim is grounded in a specific, verifiable outcome. Best for project reviews, portfolio presentations, and achievement showcases; typical decks run 4-8 slides (case study, customer success story, project retrospective).",
