In this episode, we examine the evolution of Google's approach to insights and prioritization, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Laura sheds light on how AI is being integrated into Google's processes, balancing immediate business needs with future requirements. Laura and Roy discuss the iterative process of aligning insights with global and product perspectives, and how AI is scaling insights, speeding up project timelines, and transforming traditional research methodologies.
In the final segments, we dive into the practical applications of AI within Google's Insight teams, including the development of an AI-powered Insights chatbot. This tool enhances desk research and decision-making processes by acting as a central repository for synthesizing answers from various sources. Laura and Roy explore the broader implications of AI adoption, how it could reshape team structures and the evolving landscape of Insight teams.
Topics Discussed
Insight-Driven Organizations - (00:09) AI Adoption and Insight Prioritization Evolution - (07:32) AI Integration in Insight Teams - (14:06) Evolution of Insight Teams - (25:07) Insight Teams and AI Adoption - (29:48)Highlights
âIt wasn't by design, it was, as I think I'm sure most people's journeys take, a kind of windy path. So I actually started in marketing. I worked in music marketing, so quite different to where I am now interesting and analytical and creative force, that was felt like my homeâ(05:08)âWe're 20% shooting ahead and thinking about what the business will need but don't realize they need yet, and that's always been quite a good rule of thumb, and that's another thing that's been part of the setup since we started as a team.â (10:27)âWe have run training sessions and, you know, launches all to our stakeholders as well, and I think we've definitely found that there are some people who lean in harder and use it on a more regular basis, others who kind of would perhaps want us to bring the insights and have the discussion rather than go seek them out themselves, and I think that's kind of an interesting new discovery.â (16:03)âSo qual at scale, I think is really really interesting. When we wouldn't have been able to interview a thousand people qualitatively and synthesize the output, it's just too much to be able to fathom. So AI techniques allow us to do that and that's fascinating and new that we wouldn't have been able to do beforeâ (20:06)âso generative AI is very kind of text-based and at the moment, you know, the language is pretty, pretty good, but I'm assuming it can go even further and also we'll get better. Everybody will get better at writing prompts and how to use it. At the moment, you know there's a big difference between somebody writing a prompt that is, six words long in the way that you might use in a search term, to writing a proper prompt which is actually going to give you really interesting results.â (25:04)âI think one of the things that shocked me because I've obviously had the benefit of being agency side and client side I think one of the things that I really missed when I moved to client side was the amount that you get out and about when you're client side. You spend so much time in your company and I don't know if that's particularly healthy. I was so used to seeing different people from the agency side, I'd be in multiple different businesses.â (27:32)This is episode 56 of the Transforming Insight podcast.

Some years ago I interviewed Sue Whelan Tracey, former commercial director for one of the UK's big four banks, and at that time a director at Moneyfacts, an NHS health trust, and a major diabetes charity. Sue told me how much she tried to champion the use of customer insight in every organisation she worked with, but she thought that we didn't always make it easy for ourselves.
Her observation was that senior people in business always speak the language of finance, and that shapes their perception of business issues.
But when they ask the Insight team for help addressing those issues, we respond in a different language - sometimes the language of the customer, sometimes the language of research methodology or analysis.
Sue's frustration was that Insight teams know so much that could help their organisations, but by failing to translate our knowledge, findings, recommendations and opinions into the right language, we are failing to optimise our impact.
And worse, our organisation misses out and doesn't leverage its investment in Insight.
Customer and market knowledge, said Sue, is far too important - and expensive - for us to leave it to senior decision-makers to translate our findings into their language 'through the filter of their own ignorance'.
So this episode of our podcast is all about the importance of placing a financial value on the projects we work on, the observations we make, and the recommendations we put forward.
It's often easier than we might think, and the potential benefit is enormous.

But the topic thatâs resonated most for us personally and many of our members has been Insight team wellbeing and the ways we can all identify and help our colleagues to manage stress. Emmaâs conversation with new IMA associate Lara Meyer, recorded and shared at the July Insight forums and now available for all members to watch on the IMA website, explored many angles to this, including the critical importance of talking about wellbeing and giving our colleagues permission to raise it.
Just back from Quirkâs New York, we also recognise that this is a time of change for many Insight leaders and their teams, and itâs never been more important to get ourselves up to 10,000 feet and look back down on our Insight teams in their organisations, and our organisations within their markets. We need that sense of perspective to figure out which ways of working are no longer fit for purpose, and when we should all learn to say no.
Finally, we finish on a positive note. There is a lot of change in the air at the moment, with uncertainty for some over job roles, budgets and team activity. But there is always another Insight leader or corporate Insight professional out there who is tackling the same challenge, and weâd encourage all our listeners to contact the Insight Management Academy any time they like if they feel the need for some inspiration and support!

In this episode, we dig into the transformative power of integrating various disciplines within data analytics to answer complex business questions. Drawing from Caroline's experiences at Prudential and Lloyd's, we discuss how combining data analytics, client research, marketing, and competitive intelligence can lead to more comprehensive and impactful insights. Furthermore, Caroline delves into the unique challenges and rewards associated with expanding into customer experience (CX), including the methodological hurdles and emotional dynamics of delivering feedback.
Lastly, we examine the intricacies of excelling in customer experience roles, especially for analytical and introverted individuals. We emphasize the need for high interpersonal energy and empathy, understanding that business decisions are often driven by emotion. We advise on the value of being honest about one's strengths and weaknesses and the need for a balanced team to complement those areas. Lastly, encouraging leaders to think bigger and aim higher, we explore the exciting opportunities that come with an expanded scope in insight roles.

âSo the core purpose of Lloyd's Register is to make sure that ships and other maritime assets are really fit for purpose. So we assess the designs to which they're built, we set standards and then survey vessels and assets to make sure that they continue to operate safely and effectively, and that really means protecting people's lives, protecting the environment and protecting commercial assetsâ(04:28)âThe other thing I think about starting from a very, very low base is that almost anything you do deliver is seen to be amazing. That's really very life-affirming. So you know, the bar gets higher and higher the longer that you're in, and you expect thatâ (10:49)âWhen I look back at the days when, the days before we started doing client experience, it was very difficult at the time the insight piece to build that and you're all working very hard, but in hindsight it seems that that was the easy bit. So really, the problems that we were facing there were largely methodological problems, which problems we're very comfortable with as researchersâ (18:52)âI think that as I've grown older, more of my inner empathy has come out, come to the fore and that's become a stronger suit. But you know, if you do shy away from confrontation, I think it may not be the best choice for you. You need to be pretty robust, I think, and resilient, and also remember that 90 to 95% of business decisions are made emotionally, not rationallyâ (22:47)âI think no one is the complete leader. You want to have people around you who really make up for your weaknesses, you know, have a complementary balance of skills and personalities across your team.â (26:04)âI think that we have the potential as Insight people to paint landscapes instead of painting miniatures. And if we choose to think more broadly and to increase our scope, we can genuinely change the course of a business. We can genuinely improve the lives of our customers and our colleagues.â (27:36)This is episode 53 of the Transforming Insight podcast.

Over the last 20 years, there has gradually been more focus on commercial thinking in Insight teams, and some organisations have made notable progress.
But 400 Insight leaders have taken part in the IMAâs capability benchmarking in the last 5 years, and commerciality remains the best practice territory given the lowest scores.
In todayâs episode I make the case for changing the paradigm through which we see commerciality, and Christine Stoddart, former Insight leader at William Hill, Wilko, Co-op and DFS, draws on her wide experience of using Insight to add commercial value.

It's really very varied and it's giving you a very formative experience, so I think that that's why it tends to be the normal pathâ (06:32)âYou cannot think so much at the moment of the fire! But you look back, and I do realize that there's a lot about how I connect with people and create those collaborative relationships. And you realize that you deliver, and are able to achieve through others and through the combination of a strong team working togetherâ (14:20)âSo, it was really a moment of total reset and redefinition. And yes, and I have to say that I'm very, very proud of the team. We did a very thoughtful process of getting to the point where we are right now. The UK is also leading in many projects and ways of working in the region. And we've done a very strong process of team building and capability building within the teamâ (17:05)âI felt that everybody needed to understand and embrace that if you stay behind, you're going to be behind more and more as everything keeps evolving. So just to give that sense of urgency that we needed to get on the bus and make sure that we were moving all together to this future, that where we were required and required to play with different skillsâ (21:55)âThere are a lot of these skills that in the past maybe we were looking more at technical skills, but now these are core skills that, to be successful, we need to develop and we need to help everybody in our teams to get there and feel that they can develop them, even if they haven't tried so much in the past.â (25:22)âI think that one thing for leaders is to develop the team, to empower the team and use the talent that you have withinâ (34:36)This is episode 50 of the Transforming Insight podcast.

Todayâs episode looks at the fourth pathway, process, and this one is a bit different because it starts not with the Insight team, but with the rest of the organisation.
Whether we like it or not, senior decision-makers, like consumers, will have their own ways of making choices. In our companies, that might mean committees that meet each month or only as part of a planning process at certain points in the year.
It might be a case of an individual director or small groups of directors discussing issues outside formal meetings. Or the hidden influence of managers who might not appear very senior, but play an important role at certain moments in the planning cycle.
So, the fourth pathway to improving the position of our Insight teams is to familiarise ourselves with our companyâs decision-making processes, its rhythms and rituals, and then figure out how, when and where Insight can become part of those processes to guide evidence-based decision-making.
Please listen to find out more!

In todayâs episode, James and Lisa look at the reputation of our Insight teams, and how we need to manage it carefully to enhance our positioning.
Itâs a bit like our companies obsessing about customer experience so that individual interactions donât undermine their corporate brand: we can say what we like about the purpose of our Insight teams, but their positioning will be fatally undermined if the practical experience of working with any of our colleagues gives a very different impression.
There are two angles to this topic. First, how do we help our Insight teams to do things right? And second, how do we put processes in place to make sure we are doing the right things?
In my experience, the first is often easier than the second, but unless we address both, we can reinforce the wrong assumptions that other departments make about the role of the Insight team.
Remember the old joke? That poor organisations use Insight like a drunk uses a lamp post⊠more for support than illumination? Well, we need to look carefully at how our team works and ask whether we donât sometimes encourage that perception.

We also see this as a time of team change, with lots of restructures, some redundancies, and a loss of people with years of experience. In response, the most successful Insight teams have doubled down on commercial thinking and influencing skills.
Finally, we look at leadersâ roles in guiding their team members through change. Lisa provides a personal perspective on coaching and explores how Insight teams can learn from coaching principles. And Emma talks about imposter syndrome, and how we can all learn to recognise it, and help ourselves and others to manage it.

But felt like there was a real opportunity to kind of use my skill set to see how I could apply that internally to influence business strategy and business planning and be able to see some of that Insight impact within my own business, rather than be reliant on the customers as to whether they would kind of take that Insight on board.â (2:57)âFor me, that was about how do we enable the business to be able to access that data and be able to service their questions themselves, in order to free up time in my team to do more of the deeper analysis.â (5:10)âIt was a good opportunity to kill two birds with one stone, in that we were trying to inspire them with their vision of what an Insight-led organisation looks like, but then also talk to them about these new tools that we've got that could help them be more self-sufficient in answering their own questions.â (14:00)âMy time is kind of split, probably in two ways. One is kind of leading the team. So making sure that we've got the team set up in the right way to deliver what the business needs. Whether that be about kind of helping prioritizes we've just discussed that the key projects coming in, making sure that we've got the right people assigned to the right pieces of work. That's more about the management. And then the second part is then more about the leadership. So I think that is where I will be looking at, the things that we've got in the pipeline from a transformation perspective.ââThat's, in reflection, I think, of the value that we've added to the business, and they've been able to recognize that bringing more head count in will deliver better business results.â (24:02)âIt's almost being brave to take that leap of faith and trust yourself to be able to make some of those changes.â (30:32)This is episode 46 of the Transforming Insight podcast.

Thereâs no point developing detailed brand concepts if nobody has heard of our companies in the first place. And the same is true for our Insight teams.
So in this weekâs episode, Iâm going to suggest that whilst we should certainly reflect on our Insight team brand, we should also recognise that we often simply need to promote awareness of Insight as a concept and our team as a department.
This requires an opportunistic mindset as our internal market for Insight is always changing. Itâs very easy to assume that everyone knows who we are, but in a large company they probably donât. And we have to start again every time there is a major restructure or new senior managers arrive.
Please listen to find out more!
Topics Discussed
An opportunistic mindset (2.12)The need to make deliberate decisions (5.17)Introducing signature pieces (7.37)Jamesâs own experience of signature pieces (10.15)Insight managers as entrepreneurs (12.33)This is episode 45 of the Transforming Insight podcast.

Renate's journey to leading the Insight Team at TFL (1:50)Navigating the team through a re-org (4:21)Annual goals, priorities and team collaboration (10:04)What is Renate most proud of her team achieving?

âThis year, 2023, is the year of communication⊠That year everybody has an objective linked to that one thing. On top of the day-to-day and the project delivery, that everyone has objectives within their own development plans that is also speaking to that objective. That it's not my priority, it's a team priority. And that everybody understands how everybody kind of contributes to that.â (10:17)âThat's how you get a seat at the table is by helping people out when they asked you. But obviously there's a balance in there. We can't then say yes to everybody, at all times. And how you continue to build that good reputation and that helpful reputation, without just doing other people's admin for them.â (12:53)âSuddenly, wanting to know what customers were thinking and doing and going to do next was the organization's number one priority and suddenly we were under pressure to deliver almost daily Insights and figures and facts.â (14:28)âIt was a really useful exercise to review absolutely every single thing you do as a team and I think, by nature of doing that, I think it made us more focused and more kind of specific and deliberate in what we did and what we didn't doâ (17:27)âIt was realising that they don't need me to be the most experienced researcher. They need me to provide direction and vision and challenge, and that's my role.â (20:35)This is episode 44 of the Transforming Insight podcast.

According to the entrepreneur.com website:
âSimply put, your brand is your promise to your customer. It tells them what they can expect from your products and services, and it differentiates your offering from that of your competitors. Your brand is derived from who you are, who you want to be and who people perceive you to be.â
In our world of corporate Insight, we might rephrase that paragraph as:
âSimply put, our Insight brand is our promise to other departments. It tells them what they can expect from our products and services, and it differentiates our offering from that of other functions. Our brand is derived from who we are, who we want to be and who senior people in other departments perceive us to be.â
All Insight teams already have a âbrandâ of some sort whether we realise it or not. But do other departmentsâ views of our team align with our views of Insight? And do they help us to optimise our teamâs position in the hearts, minds and decision-making processes of our organisation?

An Insight team looks outwards to an organisationâs customers and markets and shines a light on issues of strategic importance.
In stormy weather, it is there to pinpoint rocks upon which the organisation might founder, and competitor companies with which the company might collide.
Many Insight teams pride themselves on their ability to understand customer behaviour and its drivers. They have developed a powerful light to shine upon market issues, and they aspire to serve as a lighthouse, a beacon to guide their organisation as it navigates the market.
However, a lighthouse helps nobody if it is not in a position to be seen. Positioned inland, or hidden by cliffs, its light cannot help shipping.
Likewise, there is little point in building an Insight capability to identify issues and guide management teams along the best route if our Insight teams are not well positioned within our companies.
Effective Insight teams succeed in identifying and occupying an optimal position in the hearts, minds and decision-making processes of their wider organisation. And thatâs never been more important than this year with the AI tide just starting to come in.

Looking closer at Hayleyâs switch to Deliveroo (2:00)Transforming Insight culture to look more toward consumer understanding (4:48)The importance of clear objectives (10:40)Has Hayleyâs view on the role of Insight changed? (14:27)The opportunities and threats of AI to Insight teams (18:48)One piece of advice Hayley would give Insight Team Leaders (25:15)Highlights
âYes, there's a great customer concept there, but it's actually a really smart piece of Tech that has enabled the business to scale as quickly as it has. And it's not really until there's more competition in the market, and the business gets onto that sort of next phase of development, that there's suddenly an appreciation that a rather more structured, rounded approach to customer and market Insight is needed.ââEven though we had used OKRs, so every quarter would have our Objectives and Key Results. But that in itself didn't seem to be enough to equip team members to say ânoâ, whereas this sort of very succinct one-pager worked really well.ââYou have to make sure that you are able to touch every part of the organisation, otherwise you're not really going to enable customer-centric thinking. And by that, I mean, quite often we do lots and lots of research and we speak to lots and lots of teams, but there's some teams that we probably never ever would speak to unless we organise some quite large-scale events. So, HR teams or Finance teams or even some of our engineers probably wouldn't get invited traditionally to our debrief. So, what I make sure that we do as part of our research plans now is have large-scale events. That means that everybody can come and listen to the customer.ââ[Being] less precious as well, in that we don't own the customer in as much as we can democratize data and enable teams to dive into specific areas themselves. Thatâs not a threat to Insight functions. Actually, it's really helpful in terms of helping make sure that the customer data we captured is being used as much as possibleââI think the skill set just needs to kind of shift, but there'll definitely still be a role for people. And it comes back to what we do as researchers right, asking the right questions in the right ways, making sure that the right material is there.âThis is episode 40 of the Transforming Insight podcast.

In his celebrated book, Factfulness, Hans Rosling said that:
âPeople constantly and intuitively refer to their worldview when thinking, guessing or learning. If your worldview is wrong, you will systematically make the wrong guesses.â
