Business Reporting

Turn data and status into decision-ready reporting.

Workflow

1. Identify audience, decision context, reporting period, and desired action.
2. Separate facts, interpretation, risks, and recommendations.
3. Lead with the answer, then show the evidence.
4. Include KPIs with definitions, time windows, and comparison baselines.
5. Call out material changes, drivers, risks, blockers, and next actions.
6. Use tables for comparisons and bullets for concise narrative.

Quality Bar

• Every chart or metric should support a decision or a clear understanding.
• Avoid vague language such as "good progress" without evidence.
• State assumptions and data gaps clearly.
