Tracy Allison Altman’s Summary
Pioneering a new field: Explanation science. Even though explaining is one of the most important things people do, it hasn't received adequate management attention or R&D focus. I'm a founding member of ExplanationScience.org, a membership organization dedicated to the science of explaining: Join us as we rethink some software designs and management strategies.
I condense complex stuff into innovative online formats and at-a-glance explanations that help people find & use information more effectively. I'm a successful author, educator, blogger, and software product manager.
- At Ugly Research, I designed the Tiny Soapbox methodology as a practical way to create at-a-glance views of explanations that are easy to follow and easy to find. Developed seminar series for managers & executives, subject matter experts, researchers, and software strategists.

EvidenceSoup.com is my blog exploring practical approaches to evidence-based management. I look for ways to make valuable evidence more transparent, so more people will discover it and use it. [tracy@evidencesoup.com]
