Lisa is a dualist researcher. In her view, qual and quant are not separate streams and a keen grasp of both is essential for her work with brand teams.

2) Clarity of thought - Lisa strives to provide clear stories, clear answers, and clear and realistic strategic recommendations

3) Communication - report writing is something of an art form to Lisa - what do the audience need to know, and how to best tell the story to drive home the key message?
