Pulse of Fintech H1’21
“A solid MECE market-intelligence report with disciplined numeric section dividers and several genuinely declarative action titles, but no SCQA arc and no closing recommendation — useful as a teaching example for region/segment structure and insight-bearing chart titles, not as a Storymakers exemplar of narrative or close.”
↓ Repeated topic-label titles inside the analytical sections ('Global insights' pp.7/8/9/14; 'Fintech segments — Payments' pp.17/18; 'Regional insights — Americas' pp.35/36) waste page real-estate that should carry the chart's takeaway

2019 Global Shared Services Survey Report 11th biannual edition
“A competently structured Deloitte survey-findings report with strong callouts but topic-label titles and no recommendation — use it as a teaching example of the gap between insightful callouts and weak action titles, not as a Storymakers exemplar.”
↓ Titles are survey questions, not insights — p7, p8, p10, p13, p15, p16, p18, p19, p21, p22 all read as interview prompts rather than conclusions

Ipsos Global Health Service Monitor 2023 WEB
“A well-organized survey data report, not a Storymakers deck — use the section scaffolding and THE HEADLINES pattern as a navigational example, but it is an anti-example of action titling and has no closing argument.”
↓ No recommendation or 'so-what' act: the deck ends in appendix + methodology + corporate slide (p.30–p.45) with zero synthesis

Ipsos Global AI 2023 Report NZ Release 19.07.2023
“A competently structured survey-results report with strong navigation but no narrative — useful as a counter-example of topic-label titling and missing resolution, not as a Storymakers exemplar.”
↓ Action titles are pure topic labels repeated across multiple slides (e.g., 'Feelings about AI' on p.10/11/12/13) — zero insight conveyed by the title alone

narrative
ga sma presentation
“A polished but conventional institutional capabilities deck — strong as a reference for asset-management product disclosure conventions and a few good action titles (p.18, p.32), but a weak Storymakers exemplar because it buries its thesis, dodges its own narrative tension, and ends in an appendix instead of a recommendation.”
↓ Buried lead: no thesis or recommendation appears in the first five slides; the deck opens with firm-scale boilerplate ($4.1T) before saying anything about the SMA strategy itself

mi gtm latam br en
“A reference-grade market almanac with strong data hygiene but no narrative — useful as a teaching example of MECE regional coverage and callout discipline, not of Storymakers structure or action-titling.”
↓ Zero action titles — every page title is a topic label ('Latin America: Politics' p.6, 'U.S.: The Fed and interest rates' p.34) leaving the audience to extract the insight themselves
