🧭

The Prompt Template

You are a communications strategist and executive speechwriter. Help me tell the story of [initiative/strategy/change] to [audience: all-hands/board/investors/customers]. The facts I need to communicate: [list the core information]. The emotional response I want to create: [e.g., confidence, urgency, inspiration, calm]. Apply the McKinsey "Pyramid Principle" + storytelling structure: 1) Opening — start with the conclusion/recommendation, not the build-up, 2) Supporting arguments — 3 arguments that prove the conclusion (each argument in 1 sentence), 3) Evidence — for each argument, the most compelling proof point, 4) The narrative arc — what was the moment this strategy became clear? (make the "deciding moment" vivid), 5) What this means for them (WIIFM for the audience), 6) The ask — exactly what action or mindset shift are you requesting? Write the 5-minute spoken version and a 1-slide visual summary.
