Don’t Just Search Faster — Research Deeper

This is an editorial summary of the edition. Read the full article on LinkedIn below.

Main idea

A professional decision may need structured research rather than an instant answer. Define the decision, research questions, evaluation criteria and acceptable sources first.

Put it into practice

Compare three solutions by strengths, weaknesses, cost, risk and missing information. Separate sourced facts from analysis, then finish with a recommendation and next step.

Exercise

Choose a real decision and four criteria. Review the research plan, manually verify three critical sources and request a one-page executive brief. A longer report is not automatically better research.
