Prompt“Turn our 2026 remote work survey into an infographic.”

Here's a plan for your remote work survey infographic:

**Title**: 2026 Remote Work Survey Results

**Sections**:
1. Introduction — brief context about the survey
2. Key Statistics — your main data points with charts
3. Trends — how things have changed
4. Conclusion — takeaways

**Design tips**:
- Use a consistent color palette
- Keep text minimal
- Use icons to represent concepts
- Make sure charts are easy to read at a glance
- Include your logo and source citation at the bottom

For the charts, bar charts work well for comparisons and pie charts for proportions.

INFOGRAPHIC BRIEF — 2026 Remote Work Survey
Format: vertical scroll, 1200 × 4200px · LinkedIn + blog embed

THE ONE TAKEAWAY
Everything below serves this: "Hybrid won, but nobody agrees what it
means." A reader who sees only the header should leave with that
sentence. Cut any panel that doesn't support it.

PANEL 1 — HERO  (1200 × 800)
  Headline stat, one number, 180pt: 71%
  Subhead: "now work hybrid — up from 44% in 2023"
  Visual: single number, no chart. Charts don't stop a scroll; numbers do.

PANEL 2 — THE DISAGREEMENT  (1200 × 900)
  This is the actual story — give it the most room.
  Diverging bar, centered on zero:
    Employees want 2 days in office ◀────┼────▶ Managers want 4
  One sentence beneath. No legend — label the ends directly.

PANEL 3 — WHAT CHANGED  (1200 × 800)
  Slope chart, 2023 → 2026, four categories max.
  Slope beats grouped bars here: the reader's eye follows direction, and
  direction IS the finding.

PANEL 4 — BY ROLE  (1200 × 900)
  Horizontal bars, sorted descending, values at bar end.
  Not a pie: seven roles in a pie is unreadable, and sorted bars let
  people find their own role in under a second.

PANEL 5 — THE SURPRISE  (1200 × 500)
  Pull-quote treatment for the counterintuitive finding. Gives the eye a
  rest between charts and it's the most-screenshotted panel type.

PANEL 6 — FOOTER  (1200 × 300)
  n = 2,847 · fielded Jan 2026 · margin of error ±1.8%
  Logo, URL, "full report" CTA.

DATA-INK
  No gridlines. No axis lines. No 3D. No drop shadows on bars. Label
  values directly on marks so the reader never traces to an axis.

COLOR
  One brand accent for the primary series, neutral grey for comparison
  series, one warning tone reserved for the disagreement panel only.
  Three colors total. Check the diverging bars in greyscale — if the two
  ends stop being distinguishable, the panel fails for ~8% of male
  readers.

TYPE
  Stat numerals 120–180pt · panel headers 48pt · body 24pt minimum.
  Anything under 24pt is unreadable in a LinkedIn feed at phone width,
  which is where most of this will be seen.

CROPS TO EXPORT
  Panel 1 and Panel 2 as standalone 1200×1200 squares — those two carry
  the story on their own and are what gets reshared.

About this skill

You have a report full of good numbers, and your infographic still comes out as a wall of stats that nobody remembers. Or you asked an AI image tool for one and got charts with made-up bars and garbled text. This skill picks the one claim worth making, chooses the right chart for each number, and writes every word that goes on the canvas before anyone opens a design tool.

What it does

  • Rewrites your topic into a headline claim that a reader gets in five seconds, plus a hero number to carry it
  • Ranks your data points, cuts the ones that don't support the headline, and lists what it cut and why
  • Matches each data point to a chart by what the data shows (trend, ranking, part-to-whole, comparison, proportion) instead of by looks
  • Checks the numbers before layout: percentages that don't sum to 100, mixed denominators, rate-vs-share mix-ups, correlation written as cause, missing sample sizes
  • Sets a text budget, size hierarchy, one accent color, alt text, and a credit line for the format you need (single image, carousel, or long blog graphic)
  • When AI image tools are involved, keeps them on the illustration layer so your numbers and text stay accurate

What you get

A section-by-section brief in reading order, with exact copy, data, chart type, and emphasis for each section, ready for a designer, Canva, or Figma. It also includes alt text, a cut list, and integrity flags.

Best for

Creators, marketers, and analysts who turn survey results, research, or company metrics into graphics for LinkedIn, Instagram, Pinterest, blogs, or reports.
