When doing a written report, we use a modification based on the CIF.  
We've made adjustments based on feedback from our clients in regards  
to what works/doesn't work for them. But most of our "reporting" is  
done with a Keynote presentation. We discuss what works and what  
doesn't work, providing examples. And we do so based on a number of  
patterns/themes that we uncover during analysis of the findings.

In theory, theory and practice are the same.
In practice, they are not.
