I am Sylvain Léauté, an author working on human and organisational factors. Nuclear operations, employee representation and disability inclusion have shaped my work on clear communication and learning from experience.
When information loses its context, a problem can keep recurring. SBAR gives people a shared way to explain what they know and what response they need.
Situation: What is happening now?
Background: What happened before? What has already been tried?
Assessment: How do you understand the situation? What remains uncertain?
Request: What response, support or decision do you need?
The book adapts the established SBAR communication framework to human–AI interaction and also explores everyday conversations.
Offer the book as a common starting point.
Choose a real situation: a briefing, a recurring difficulty or a meeting to prepare.
Practise together: distinguish facts, previous attempts, interpretations and the request.
Review the outcome: was the request understood, and did the agreed action receive a response?
A recurring delay? Describe the task, recall previous attempts, state your working hypothesis and ask for a specific decision.
Prepare questions for a doctor or an administrative appointment.
Prepare a job interview or clarify a personal project.
Give an AI assistant useful context and a clear request.
