Synopsis

Confusing Instructions examines the widespread problem of unclear communication in product manuals and safety warnings, arguing that effective instruction is crucial for business success. Companies often prioritize technical accuracy or legal jargon, leading to user frustration and errors. The book highlights how user-centered design, incorporating principles of cognitive psychology, can improve customer satisfaction and mitigate risks. For example, poorly designed instructions can lead to increased product returns and even legal liabilities, underscoring the importance of clarity.

The book progresses from foundational principles of effective communication to case studies of both well-documented and poorly documented products. It then offers a framework for developing user-centered instructions, providing practical guidelines and templates. Unique insights are drawn from usability studies and analyses of customer support logs, pinpointing common communication breakdowns. By understanding how users process information, companies can create clearer and more effective product documentation.

Ultimately, Confusing Instructions offers a practical approach to improving product manuals, safety warnings, and labeling, making it a valuable resource for product managers, engineers, technical writers, and business leaders. The book emphasizes that investing in clear instructions not only reduces errors but also enhances customer loyalty and protects against potential legal issues. This comprehensive guide provides a roadmap for creating user-friendly documentation that benefits both businesses and consumers.

Leading Impactful Teams -...

James Louttit

Winner of the 2023 PMI Project Professional of the Year*
Winner of the 2024 Goody Book Awards Best Book - Business / Management
In the run up to 2016 I was a senior manager making what I now know were dozens of mistakes every day, but fixing them with effort and determination, and stress. It nearly killed me, but as my dad says "experience is worth what it costs you", and that experience was worth a lot.
After I got out of hospital I studied everything I could about projects, agile, design thinking, psychology. facilitation human behaviours and anything else I thought would be useful to people like me. I figured out how to simplify things down and explain them to my team and stakeholders and went from being "just another" project manager working 60 hours a week, to becoming a leader in a major PLC with an empowered team who had amazing opportunities, buy-in and motivation.
After 3 years as a Chief Information Officer, coaching guiding my team to take on more and more responsibility (and get the promotions they deserved), I was able to manage my diary properly, and I went to a 4-day working week and started thinking about sharing the techniques more widely. 6 months later, I left that role and now I teach the biggest companies in Ireland how to simplify their projects and work efforts, empower their teams and generally reduce stress and achieve better outcomes all round. Many of the approaches and ideas are incredibly simple to learn and you can start using them immediately.
With stories and insights that will create several "ah-ha" moments, a lot of problems you'll recognise and even a few giggles, I hope you'll enjoy this as both entertainment and a learning experience. I guarantee that you'll take away many valuable ideas. If you don't - ping me on LinkedIn (I'm easy to find) and I'll give you double your money back.
