External validation patterns.

Three reusable layouts for surfacing quotes captured in the corpus. Use when external voices are the strongest proof a claim has.

01 / TestimonialQuote

One quote, hero-sized.

Use when a single voice is THE proof — a farewell session quote, an exec endorsement, a board sign-off. Centered composition; attribution and source always visible.

Two voices, same arc.

Use when two independent sources confirm the same contribution. Strong against ‘present-only’ skepticism.

Two sources, one arc

The coaching arc, confirmed twice.

A live testimonial and a quarterly review both point at the same growth trajectory.
