Insights
Notes from the work itself: what the evidence supports, what it does not, and the decision that changes as a result. Written by the people who run the studies rather than by a content desk.

Fieldwork determines the quality of the information collected; tabulation determines whether anyone can see what it means. Both are treated as executional tasks. They should not be.
Editorial standard
That is the whole test. A piece that only describes what happened is a summary, and we already have enough of those in the market.
The opening states which choice the reader is facing. If we cannot name it, the piece is not ready.
Where the data came from, what it covers and what it does not. A finding without its boundary is a guess with better formatting.
The condition under which the recommendation stops holding, stated up front rather than defended later.
What to do next, who owns it, and what to watch to know whether it worked.
An insight earns its place the way a racing line does — by shortening the distance between where you are and the decision you have to make.
