I'm curious as well. The context is film, so I imagine it refers to the chemical process of developing the negatives in some way.

- mikeyouse 4y agoPretty close - but "souping" is when you add some random ingredient that destroys the negatives but creates an interesting effect when developing the photos. You can use vinegar, lemon juice, vodka, bleach, any number of chemicals that create different effects; https://www.kjsmall.com/projects/film-soup-tips-tricks https://www.kjsmall.com/projects/film-soup-tips-tricks In the context of the article, it seems the consultants would take copious notes (the negatives) and then go back and 'soup' them in order to have something interesting to present even though it's an unrealistic picture of the office.
