FICTIONAL WORKSHOP SOURCE
Casey Patel reference conversation
XL-P003-REFERENCE | internal | 2026-10-30 | S01

Reference collected for S01, internal only. Observer role: colleague who worked on the described project; contact permission limited to this exercise.
Rowan: What did you observe directly?
Reference: Casey led the finance workstream, not the acquisition. The local teams accepted the mapping because Casey kept their operating view. I have not checked the credential listed on the résumé.
Rowan: What should we avoid claiming?
Reference: Professional credential remains not checked; no negotiation leadership evidence. I can speak to the work described, not to all possible requirements of a future role.
Rowan: Is this independent documentary proof of every number?
Reference: No. Separate what I observed from what requires the source records. If you quote me, preserve the scope and limitations.
