narrative
enhaced data extraction using gen ai ey collaboration with wlastic
“A research-paper-styled EY/Elastic case study with a real quantitative payoff buried under topic-label titles and a vacuous conclusion — useful as a counter-example of what action titles and a closing 'R' should fix, not as a Storymakers exemplar.”
↓ Seven consecutive slides titled 'Use case implementation evaluation (Cont'd)' (p.8–13) — the canonical anti-pattern for action titles and section structure
55
narrative
The individual health insurance market in 2023
“A solid analytical market briefing with disciplined, number-led action titles, but it is not a Storymakers exemplar — use pp. 5–12 to teach insight-bearing titles, not the deck's overall arc, which lacks Complication, pillars, and Resolution.”
↓ No closing recommendation or 'so-what' — deck ends on p. 12 data and a wordmark (p. 13)
55
narrative
The Quantum Technology Monitor December 2020
“A competent state-of-the-market monitor with strong declarative analytical titles but no thesis up front and no recommendation at the end — use the middle slides as a teaching example for action-title craft, not the structure as a Storymakers exemplar.”
↓ No explicit thesis on slides 1-3 — the reader has to wait until p.4 to learn the deck's point of view
55
narrative
Review of 2024 capital markets performance
“A competent McKinsey market-review chartbook with strong action titles and a clever median-vs-mean build, but it lacks a resolution act and a real exec summary — useful as a teaching example for declarative titling, not for end-to-end Storymakers narrative.”
↓ No resolution act: the deck stops at p.13 with a trend observation rather than a recommendation or 'implications for executives' close
55
narrative
Quantum Technology Monitor 2022
“A well-titled, data-rich industry monitor with strong slide-level discipline but no narrative arc or recommendation — useful as a teaching example of action-titling and callout craft, not of Storymakers structure.”
↓ No SCQA or thesis slide in the first 5 pages — p.2 'What does this document provide?' is a meta-description, not a stake
55
narrative
IoT Mobile Internet Data Analytics 2030
“Solid analytical build with quantified action titles and concrete case studies, but it is a discussion document not a recommendation deck - useful as a teaching example for action-titled body slides, not for narrative arc or closing.”
↓ No Answer/Resolution act - deck ends at p.14 on a stat, then 'Thank You' (p.15); the reader is left to synthesize the four threads themselves
55
narrative
Global gas outlook to 2050
“A credible thought-leadership 'perspective' with strong metric-bearing action titles, but structurally a methodology-and-data dump that buries its thesis and has no recommendation — useful as a teaching example for action-title craft, not for Storymakers narrative arc.”
↓ No BLUF: the thesis is never stated in the first three slides; opening is dominated by model inventory (p3) and scenario taxonomy (p4)
55
narrative
European Banking Summit 2018
“A well-titled benchmarking spine that diagnoses Europe's capital-markets gap clearly but stops before answering 'so what' — useful as a Storymakers exemplar of declarative chart titles, not of full SCQA arc construction.”
↓ No Resolution act — the deck ends on a precedent tease (p.9) and a contact slide (p.10) instead of a recommendation
55
narrative
AI Healthcare Errors
“A well-evidenced analytical case-study tour with strong mid-deck action titles, but it lacks the SCQA opener and synthesis closer needed to work as a Storymakers exemplar — use slides 9, 15 and 16 for teaching declarative titles, not the deck's overall arc.”
↓ No SCQA opener — the title promises 'preventing healthcare errors' but no slide in pp.1–8 sizes the error problem or names the Question
55
narrative
Mergers and Acquisitions in LatAm: Evolution and prospects
“A well-sourced LatAm M&A market scan with strong action titles and credible data, but it reads as an analytical report rather than a Storymakers deck — use it as an example of declarative titling and country deep-dive structure, not as a model for narrative arc or closing.”
↓ No closing recommendation, outlook, or 'so what' slide — deck terminates on Peru analysis (p.30) then bio + disclaimer
55
narrative
Japan Hospital Insights Survey Findings Summary materials
“A disciplined survey-findings report with strong declarative action titles and clean MECE pillar dividers, but it buries the thesis behind methodology and ends as a sales pitch — borrow its titling and section-divider discipline, not its overall structure.”
↓ Opening burns 6 pages on methodology before a single finding (pp 1–6); the thesis is never stated up front
55
narrative
Hospital Priorities 2023 China Edition: Strategic Implications for Pharma Companies
“A well-researched, well-titled data-read on Chinese hospital priorities that reads like a survey report rather than a Storymakers narrative — use it as a teaching example for declarative chart titles, not for story architecture.”
↓ No answer/resolution act: p.14 asks 'How can pharmas interact more productively with hospital customers?' but no recommendation slide follows
55
narrative
Education: 2023 M&A Deal Roundup and Trends to Watch Out for in 2024
“A competent thought-leadership / BD deck with metric-led titles in the retrospective half but no thesis upfront and no recommendation at the close — use the 2023 retrospective (pp. 6-15) and the AI mini-arc (pp. 39-42) as title-craft teaching examples, not the overall structure.”
↓ No thesis slide upfront — p.5 names 'four key themes' but the title doesn't enumerate them, forcing readers to discover them across 10+ slides
55
narrative
2023 SEA Hospital Insights Survey Findings Summary materials
“A competent survey-findings deck with strong declarative titles and MECE-ish themes, but no recommendation arc — use the title-writing and section discipline as a teaching example, not the narrative structure.”
↓ No synthesis or recommendation slide — the deck ends on a finding (p.40) and jumps to L.E.K. self-promo
55
narrative
Turkey power generation evolution and top 100 players by capacity
“A competent league-table almanac with a strong analytical opener but no recommendation or close — use pp.3-6 as an example of declarative action titles, not the deck as a Storymakers arc.”
↓ No recommendation or 'so what' — p.16 is literally 'Thank you' with no next-steps slide
55
narrative
Global Assignment Policies Practices
“A competent survey-report deck with strong evidentiary density and some good action titles, but structurally a findings dump rather than a Storymakers narrative — useful as a teaching example for declarative-title rewriting, not for arc design.”
↓ Opening wastes 5 slides on cover/TOC/intro/methodology before any insight — the BLUF (bottom line up front) is absent
55
narrative
GenAI Survey 2024
“A competent survey-findings deck with above-average action titles but no narrative resolution — useful as a teaching example for headline-writing on data slides, not for end-to-end Storymakers structure.”
↓ No Resolution act — deck ends on a regulation stat (p.12) with zero «recommended actions» or «what to do Monday morning» slide
55
narrative
Captive Insurance Guide
“A competent educational primer that reads as a topic-ordered brochure rather than a Storymakers narrative — useful as a counter-example for how topic titles and an appendix-heavy close drain persuasive force.”
↓ Every section title is a noun phrase — 'Structures', 'Key players', 'Lifecycle' — none carries an insight or recommendation
55
narrative
Keynote address
“Solid analytical briefing with above-average action titles but no thesis up front and no recommendation at the close — useful as an exemplar of evidence-anchored analytical slides, not as a Storymakers narrative arc.”
↓ No closing recommendation — slide 21 is just 'THANK YOU!', wasting the highest-recall slot in the deck
55
narrative
wai ipsos innovation misperception epidemic
“A thesis-forward research note that lands its hook in the first two slides but then devolves into a data tour with no recommendation — use p.1-2 as a teaching example of strong openings, not the overall structure.”
↓ No resolution act — deck ends at p.13 demographics/usage table and then two 'About' bios (p.14-15) with zero recommendations
55
narrative
ipsos reputation council report 2024
“A competent thought-leadership compendium with strong problem framing and quantified pull-quotes, but its topic-label titles, four 'Conclusion' slides, and missing closing recommendation make it a teaching example of analytical depth without a Storymakers narrative spine.”
↓ Four slides titled simply 'Conclusion' (p10, p15, p20, p25) — wasted real estate that should carry the section's takeaway in the title
55
narrative
inv research 20220928 crypto asset survey EN
“A competent topic-organized survey report with strong callouts but topic-label titles and no resolution — use the p.5-8 Key Findings pattern as a teaching example of leading with the answer, but not the deck's overall structure.”
↓ Titles are topic labels, not insights — p.12 'Crypto Ownership' instead of '13% of Canadians own crypto, skewing young, male and investor-leaning'
55
narrative
What The Future Intelligence
“A thought-leadership magazine with strong action titles and a crisp thesis, but it diagnoses endlessly and never prescribes — useful as a teaching example of declarative slide titles and data-driven build-up, not as a model for Storymakers arc or closing.”
↓ No resolution act — the deck has no 'so what / now what' slide; last substantive page (p41 'Future optimism gaps') diagnoses rather than recommends
55
narrative
Ipsos Global Views on AI and Disinformation full report
“A well-titled Ipsos data-release deck with solid declarative findings but no SCQA arc or recommendation — useful as an exemplar of headline-stat action titles, not of Storymakers narrative structure.”
↓ No 'So what?' — deck ends at p.6 with a data point, skipping any recommendation, implication, or next step
