Services / Moderated sessions
Focus groups, advisory boards, and workshops, run for you.
When the question needs a room instead of a call, we recruit the participants, structure the session, and moderate it, so your team can listen instead of facilitate.
Choosing a format
| Format | Group size | Cadence | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Focus groups & panels | 4-8 screened experts | Single session | Testing a hypothesis against reactions in the room |
| Advisory boards | 5-10 senior specialists | Recurring, engagement by engagement | Standing strategic input over time |
| Workshops & deep dives | Small group, half-day | Single working session | Working a problem jointly with your team, not just Q&A |
Every format is moderated by our research team to a discussion guide we write with you, kept honest, and delivered back as a structured readout, not a raw recording.
How a session runs
01
Define the session
One question, the right format, and a discussion guide drafted with your team before anyone is recruited.
02
Recruit the room
Participants sourced and compliance-screened to the same standard as our 1:1 calls.
03
We moderate
A GPR moderator runs the session to the guide, in person or remote, recorded with consent.
04
You get the readout
Transcript, structured summary, and what it changes for your decision, delivered days after the session.
Questions people ask
Interaction. A moderated group surfaces disagreement between experts in real time, which is often the most useful signal in the room. Calls tell you what each expert thinks; a session shows you where they diverge and why.
Yes, that's the default. Your team observes and passes follow-up questions to the moderator, so the discussion stays neutral and you stay free to listen.
Both. Most sessions run remotely for scheduling reasons, but in-person workshops and advisory boards can be arranged where the engagement justifies it.
