Structured Thinking

Clear communication is not only about organising information in a way that makes sense to you. It also requires shaping the message so another person can follow and understand it. This video introduces structured thinking as a practical approach for both written and spoken communication. You will learn to consider the recipient’s perspective and use a ‘bottom line up front’, or BLUF, structure that begins with the most important point. Once the critical message is clear, you can explain the reasoning behind it and finish with a purpose or call to action. By arranging information around what the listener or reader needs, rather than simply following your own flow of thought, you can make communication clearer, easier to process and more useful.

Who’s It For?

Ideal for anyone who needs to explain ideas, decisions or requests clearly in writing or conversation. This video will help you lead with the essential message, provide relevant context and make the required next step easier to understand.
