Course overview
Turn Evidence into Insight is a two-week micro-course on Consulting Research and Triangulation. It teaches a simple method: tackle a real organizational question by gathering evidence from five sources—interviews, records, observation, organizational data, external research—then assess and triangulate to reach a defendable conclusion. The course uses a case study of Halvorsen Freight, a logistics company with declining on-time performance, applied across twelve lessons. Participants use the same steps for their questions. No prior research experience is needed. After two weeks, you'll be able to turn an initial story into a solid, evidence-based insight and confidently present it to a skeptical decision-maker.
