Your Prompt

  

How to Use

Use this prompt when facing non-routine, high-impact decisions where intuition alone is insufficient and structured rigor is required to justify a course of action to stakeholders.

Pro Tips

  • Be brutally honest in the [CONSTRAINTS_AND_RISKS] placeholder to get the most realistic pre-mortem results.
  • Ask the AI to play 'Devil's Advocate' for your preferred option to stress-test your assumptions.
  • Apply the 10-10-10 rule: evaluate the decision's impact in 10 minutes, 10 months, and 10 years.
  • Use the output to facilitate a 'Decision Workshop' with your leadership team rather than as a final answer.
  • Include financial data points in the challenge description to ground the strategic advice in fiscal reality.

Information Gathering Requirements

Before running the prompt, ensure you have clarity on your primary organizational KPIs, a list of internal and external stakeholders, and a realistic assessment of current resource constraints.

Framework Application

The prompt utilizes the Cynefin framework for sense-making and 'The Power of Three' for option generation. This prevents the 'narrow framing' trap where executives only consider one or two options.

Bias Mitigation Guidance

The output focuses on 'Prospective Hindsight' (Pre-mortems) to counteract overconfidence and status quo bias, forcing the AI to look for blind spots in your current strategy.
