Core Concepts

1. Story Structure

Setup → Conflict → Resolution

Conflict: The problem or opportunity
Resolution: Insights and recommendations

2. Narrative Arc

1. Hook: Grab attention with surprising insight
2. Context: Establish the baseline
3. Rising Action: Build through data points
4. Climax: The key insight
5. Resolution: Recommendations
6. Call to Action: Next steps

3. Three Pillars

| Pillar | Purpose | Components | | ------------- | -------- | -------------------------------- | | Data | Evidence | Numbers, trends, comparisons | | Narrative | Meaning | Context, causation, implications | | Visuals | Clarity | Charts, diagrams, highlights |
