You know your work creates real transformation. But when it comes to explaining your expertise, building authority, and standing out as a thought leader… it’s harder to see. You find yourself explaining it again and again — simplifying it too much, or overcomplicating it entirely.
And somehow, people with less depth… seem easier to understand, easier to choose, and easier to remember. Not because they’re better. But because their thinking is easier to hold onto.
In today’s expertise economy, content is everywhere. Advice is everywhere.
But distinct thinking — the kind that builds authority, thought leadership, and expert positioning — is increasingly rare.
Authority no longer comes from producing more content. It comes from ideas people can recognise, remember, and return to.

✍️ A Note from Susanna
I’ve worked with experts across industries — from crypto to coaching to design — and I kept seeing the same pattern.
Brilliant people doing meaningful work… still invisible in the ways that matter.
Not because they lacked expertise — but because their thinking wasn’t structured in a way others could see, remember, or share.
I realised I had been doing the same thing myself.
Susanna Reay is the best selling author of Framework Thinking®, award winning business coach and Framework Thinking® strategist. She is based in Oxfordshire, UK.
This book arrived in my life at just the right moment!.
Like many small business owners I’ve got a valuable business idea and related service that I spend a lot of time explaining to potential clients. The idea comes alive with me but quickly fades after I’ve left the room. And some days tbh I know I explain it better than others so I have felt that I needed help in this area for quite awhile but wasn’t really sure what could help.
Suzanna‘s book has helped me in 3 keys ways: 1. I now have a clearer sense of how a Client goes through my design personality process including clear outcomes/benefits and aha moments 2. I’ve created a diagram and structure which to quote Susanna I can sketch on a post it note. It pleases me a lot to look at this. I now know my own process and ideas better from sketching them out. 3. I’m currently working my way through using the evaluative model to analyse where my business is strong and where I need to take action.
This book is well structured, brilliant, beautifully illustrated and easy to read. I have recommended it to a number of business friends already.
