For two decades, Pete Moore has helped academic and health researchers build strong writing and presenting skills. Through a range of approaches to thinking, planning and writing – these ideas have been used to help more than 40,000 participants across most disciplines in the UK and other countries.
The combined suite of on-site Workshops, zoom-based Masterclasses and online Bitesize courses lets us reach out around the world – during lockdown Pete 'met' people on every continent... except Antarctica! We are really enjoying our new ability to meet people’s needs wherever they are, whenever they want.
The ThinkWrite Model sits at the heart of all our thinking, and putting the model into practice has helped thousands of researchers reduce the time they spend creating clear documents.
By looking at your writing project from the perspective of the Author, Message, Vehicle, Gatekeeper and Success it can help you take on the challenge of writing yours with greater efficiency and confidence.
Owner and Lead Consultant
Multi-award winning academic, author, journalist and trainer Pete Moore never planned to help others think, write and speak. But his combined experiences in academia and journalism led to develop an approach to writing that others found helpful.
As a post-doc, he spent months writing a four to five thousand word papers. And those months came after many previous months engaged in reading, planning and research.
However, when he started writing for publications like The Guardian, New Scientist and Nature, Pete discovered that you were given days and at most weeks for similar pieces of work... and the standard expected was still extremely high.
Pete recognised that a key difference was that journalists have a clear idea of the basic shape and requirements of their articles before they start writing. Knowing this format let him research the piece efficiently and write quickly.
After writing around 16 books, Pete was asked to help some researchers with a piece of their work. He applied a similar process of structure-led, message-targeted thinking and the researchers were exhilarated by the results.
The arrival of 'Roberts funding' in 2004 created an opportunity to integrate skills developed into doctoral training and stimulated a new level of access to skills development within the academic community. Pete was ready to step in and start training...
Now Pete works in many countries, across many disciplines and with people at all stages of their academic career.
