What really influences a jury’s final decision? In this IMS Insights Podcast, Senior Client Success Advisor Adam Bloomberg chats with Senior Jury Consulting & Strategy Advisor Chris Ritter to break down the psychology and strategy behind how jurors think—and how legal teams can use that knowledge to shape more persuasive case stories.

- The impact of unanimous vs. supermajority verdict rules
- How jurors absorb and evaluate information—heuristically, systematically, or both
- Building credibility and trust with a diverse jury
- Designing multiple persuasive paths that lead to the same verdict
- Predicting shifts in juror alliances and adjusting your approach mid-deliberation
This episode is a must-listen for trial attorneys, litigation teams, and legal professionals looking to sharpen their understanding of jury behavior and boost courtroom outcomes.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
