INTRODUCING ERRRF:
the
the
Executive Reports Reading and Reporting Framework
A tutorial to help you read and analyze business reports and make structured notes and scalable memories.
From any given business report, extract / distill / get
• metrics
• operational insights
• externality facts
• {your} curiosities
Do not write a summary. Work with what you get from:
metrics – to learn about which metrics the report uses and how the company says it scores;
operational insights – to learn about how the company functions. The more detail, the better;
externality facts – to learn more about topics that touch on a wide range of issues, not solely the company;
curiosities – to feed your own memory with stuff you care about.
While this last part – curiosities – is the least important concerning the business report, I need to describe it to help you understand that it is important for you. Curiosities may have nothing to do at all with the company, its business, or with business or economics in general. They may even distract you – and that is the reason you should write it down. When some fact, turn of phrase or pictorial detail strikes you as “curious,” you are “distracted” already – you are gripped by a topic that you have thought about before and are now surprisingly receiving some new impulse to continue to think about that topic. Unless you were encouraged by an authoritative consultant (e.g., psychiatrist) to suppress such thoughts, you should just make a note.
