The Institute of Leadership

Turning complex research into a clear, engaging and branded brochure.

The Brief

The Institute of Leadership, a professional body for leadership and management development, asked me to turn a Word document of ‘Veteran Productivity Skills research findings into an easy to digest report. The objective was to present the insights in a clear, engaging format that followed their established brand guidelines.

The Design Challenge

The original content was text and data heavy. The challenge was to transform the information into a well structured, visual and easy to absorb brochure.

The Solution

I approached the report as a piece of editorial but with a strong consideration of navigation and infographic placement.

Key design strategies included:

• Thoughtful layout and headings to guide the reader

• Infographics to portray complex findings into digestible visuals

• Pull-out quotes and photography to add rhythm and interest

• Consistent brand styling to ensure alignment with the Institute’s visual identity

The Result

The final result was a brochure that not only made the research accessible and engaging but also reinforced the Institute’s credibility with a polished, approachable design.
