Highlights
- “On the one hand it is imperative that we develop our overall project story as we go through each Insight investigation, but the actual writing of individual pieces of communication should be done once we know the conclusion we have reached and the key aspects to share so that our readers arrive at the same place.”
- “Headlines that make an impact are also more likely to leave an impression. Insight audiences – our key decision-makers, or the broader groups of colleagues who consume our content when we are not in the room – are not likely to be in a position to take action there and then”
- “A key take out for Insight teams is to allow time to edit. That might seem obvious, but in a world where there is always pressure for talented analysts and researchers to move onto the next investigation, it’s tempting to breathe a sigh of relief when we have finished writing our reports, building our presentations or compiling our videos”
