Prompt Template
Copy and customize for your context
I need to draft a project update for [TARGET_AUDIENCE: e.g., executives, team, clients, steering committee].
Project: [PROJECT_NAME]
Current status: [PROJECT_STATUS: on track, at risk, delayed]
Key updates since last communication: [KEY_UPDATES]
Blockers or risks: [BLOCKERS_OR_RISKS]
Upcoming milestones: [UPCOMING_MILESTONES]
You are a project communications expert. Help me write an update that's appropriately detailed for this audience.
CONSTRAINTS:
- Lead with the headline: are we on track?
- Tailor detail level to the audience (execs want summary, team wants details)
- Be transparent about risks without creating unnecessary alarm
- End with clear asks or next steps
DELIVERABLES:
- Project update formatted for the audience
- Executive summary (2-3 sentences)
- Detailed status if appropriate
- Risks and mitigation clearly stated
- Any asks or decisions needed

Implementation Tips
1
Specify your audience's knowledge level upfront—"executive summary" vs "team update" produces very different outputs
2
Ask AI to lead with the "so what" and format with the bottom line up front (BLUF)
3
Request that AI flags where you need to add specific data or decisions you haven't provided
