What is the Pyramid Principle
The pyramid principle is a systematic way of managing information
Essentials: Build our thinking center, systematically manage information, and connect thinking, expression, and action.
Key point: sort out the network information into tree-like logic, and then express it using linear thinking
What problem can be solved? How to solve?
1. Improve thinking ability
Conclusion first
Need to be clear
Can't be empty
organize information
Chronologically
spatial/structural order
order of importance
logical deductive sequence
Inspection standards: MECE law
The supporting arguments are not important or omitted
Step 1: Divide related ideas into piles first; Step 2: sort out the logic horizontally, using time, space, importance, and deduction; Step 3: Think vertically and summarize the theme; Step 4: Use the MECE rule to check that there are no duplicates or leaks.
2. Improve expression skills (oral, written)
The most important thing is to reduce the cognitive load of the other party
How to do it: three key points
One goal: use questions to connect fragmented information
both directions
Top-down: Find answers to questions
Bottom-up: Find questions with answers (find connections, locate core issues)
three principles
Vertical: The thoughts at each level must be a summary of the thoughts at the next level.
Horizontal 1: The ideas in each group must belong to the same logical category
Horizontal 2: Ideas within each group must be organized in a logical sequence
How to get people interested: the SCQA model
S: background
Introducing the background facilitates building consensus with the audience while focusing attention on specific within a certain time and space
C: conflict
Use background conflict to create a challenge and arouse the audience's interest in the topic
Q: Problem (what to do)
Breaking the problem
A: Give the answer
1. To explain things clearly, we must minimize cognitive load; 2. To reduce cognitive load, we must deliver information with complete content and clear hierarchy; 3. You can build a pyramid structure, but you must pay attention to three points: one goal, two directions, and three principles; 4. If you want to arouse other people’s interest, you can use the SCQA model.
3. Find solutions to problems
"empty umbrella" model
What——》Why——》What to do
1. Define the problem
2. Solve problems: make bold assumptions and verify carefully
3. How to verify: Find out the key issues based on the tangible structure
Related methods and tools
A4 paper note-taking method
Step 1: Find an A4 paper and put it in front; Step 2: Negotiate the topic of the note in the upper left corner, such as "How to make your thinking more logical" Step 3: Within 1 minute, quickly write down the relevant content that comes to mind (4 to 6 points, no more than 30 words per point);
He Fan's three moves
Writing clearly is more important than writing vividly
The first tip: The first sentence of each natural paragraph must be the central idea of this paragraph. The second trick: The sentences after each natural paragraph must have a logical relationship, whether it is progression, juxtaposition, or comparison. Tip 3: There must be a logical relationship between the first sentence of the previous natural paragraph and the first sentence of the next natural paragraph. Whether it is progression, juxtaposition, or contrast.
