Maximizing the Analytic Review Process

Length:

1 day

Who should take this course?

Managers of Analysts.

Description:

This course gives reviewers of written analytic products practical experience using a review process that applies the elements of good analytic tradecraft and a Socratic-based coaching philosophy to one-on-one review sessions with analysts. Using hands-on exercises, group discussion, and a focused self-assessment, students will leave the course with a panoply of tips, techniques, and reference materials, as well as a personal reviewing strategy that can be applied immediately to their daily work.

Concepts introduced in this workshop are:

• What are the most common failings of written analytic products?
• What are the most effective ways to address problems in written analysis?
• How can I save time and improve the product at the same time?
• What are the most effective ways to communicate reviewing comments?
• How can a coaching philosophy turn around an otherwise difficult reviewing situation or an intransigent analyst?
• How can I implement a coaching-based review process?
