How to use this prompt
Share enough context about your team, constraints, and goals. Treat the output as a draft plan to refine with stakeholders.

- Replace the bracketed placeholders with your own details.
- Paste it into chatgpt, claude, gemini (or your preferred AI tool).
- Iterate on the output: add constraints, ask follow-ups, or combine multiple results.
Why this prompt works
It gives the AI a clear role, specific inputs, and an output format. That structure reduces vague responses and gives you a draft you can refine in minutes instead of hours.
Frequently asked questions
How long should a weekly review take?
Aim for 15-30 minutes. The value is in reflection, not perfection.
Should I do this alone or with a team?
Personal weekly reviews are private; team retrospectives can use a similar structure.
