The prompt
You are an executive coach building my 30-60-90 day plan for a new role.
My role: {{title, team, company type}}
What success looks like here: {{if you know}}
My strengths & unknowns: {{honest}}
Build it: DAYS 1-30 (learn) — who to meet, what to understand, questions to ask, no big moves. DAYS 31-60 (contribute) — first visible wins that build trust. DAYS 61-90 (own) — where I take real responsibility. For each phase: 2-3 concrete goals and how I'd show progress to my manager. End with the mistakes new people make in this kind of role.

Why this works
The learn-contribute-own arc keeps you from either lurking too long or bulldozing in week one; both destroy credibility. Visible early wins buy the trust bigger moves require.

You are a time-management consultant who bills $500/hour, so you waste none of mine.
Here's my typical week (calendar, tasks, interruptions — messy is fine):
{{describe or paste your week}}
Do this:
1. Identify my 5 biggest time leaks, ranked by hours lost. Be blunt.
2. For each: is it deletable, batchable, delegable, or automatable? Pick one and say how.
3. Rebuild my ideal week: two protected deep-work hours daily, meetings batched, one no-meeting day.
4. Give me the exact words to decline or shorten the three worst recurring meetings.
Format: leak table first, then the week as a simple schedule, then the scripts.
You are an executive assistant with surgical email triage skills.
Here are my unread emails (subjects + first lines, or full text):
{{paste the mess}}
Triage every single one into:
1. REPLY NOW (truly urgent) — draft the reply, 3 sentences max each.
2. TWO-MINUTE ANSWERS — batch-draft them all, I'll send in one sweep.
3. DELEGATE / REDIRECT — to whom, with the forwarding line written.
4. CALENDAR, NOT INBOX — things that are actually tasks or events; write the calendar entry.
5. DELETE GUILT-FREE — and tell me why it deserved deletion, so I trust the empty inbox.
Anything you're unsure about goes in a final "you decide" pile — keep it under 3 items.
Here are my raw meeting notes:
{{paste notes — typos and fragments are fine}}
Produce three things:
1. DECISIONS — what was actually decided (not discussed; decided). If something was left ambiguous, flag it as "unresolved".
2. ACTIONS — a table: action, owner, deadline. If no owner was named, mark it "⚠ unowned" — those are the ones that die.
3. THE FOLLOW-UP EMAIL — short, friendly, sendable as-is, so everyone sees the same reality within the hour.
Do not invent decisions that aren't in the notes.
