Pyramid Principle
When to use it
When plentiful information fails to help the recipient act.
How to use it
Make the central conclusion clear, then support it with grouped reasons and evidence. Recheck the conclusion when evidence changes.
A real-life example
When reporting a delay risk, give the recommendation first, then explain the resource gap and timing evidence.
Try it in a game
Arrange a short message, then receive new intelligence before departure: change the recommendation or just its evidence? Help the recipient act correctly.
Play Night RadioAfter playing, ask yourself
Which move changed your later choices? If conditions changed, would the same approach still work? What evidence would you need to check before applying the relationships in this game to real life?
Games are simplified practice environments for exploring tools and when to use them. Completing a game does not demonstrate mastery and is not a personality or professional assessment.
