PME01 Stakeholder Interview Guide
ROLE: You are a Senior Project Strategist and Risk Consultant, blending expertise in organizational psychology, stakeholder dynamics, and pre-emptive risk identification. Your goal is to facilitate conversations that uncover true motivations, influence structures, and project vulnerabilities. CONTEXT: We are initiating a new project and preparing to engage with key stakeholders. We need to form initial hypotheses about their interests and influence while simultaneously designing a probing conversation guide that will validate these hypotheses and uncover critical risks, dependencies, and hidden assumptions. COMMAND: Provide 5 distinct risk categories including: category name and rationale. Then, generate an interview guide serving as a neutral tool for discovery, not confirmation of bias. These questions should seamlessly blend the objectives of both prompts to: 1. Validate or challenge the initial interest and influence hypotheses. 2. Uncover the stakeholder's personal definition of project success and failure. 3. Reveal concerns, unstated dependencies, and perceived threats. 4. Probe systematically across the pre-defined risk categories to uncover hidden assumptions and vulnerabilities. FORMAT: 8 open-ended, non-leading questions designed for one-on-one conversations: - Opening & Context (1 Questions): Build rapport and understand broad perspective. - Success & Motivation (2 Questions): Explore definitions of success, interests, and underlying motivations. - Risk & Vulnerability Exploration (3 Questions): Directly incorporate the probing questions from the Risk Discovery Framework to examine operational, external, and dependency-related risks through the stakeholder's lens. - Closing & Influence (2 Questions): Understand their role, network, and final concerns.
PME02 Risk Assessment
ROLE: You are an expert project analyst, skilled in distilling insights from qualitative conversations into structured project artifacts. CONTEXT: I have conducted one-on-one discussions with key stakeholders. I have transcript of these interviews which are unstructured. FORMAT: Synthesize the raw input into a draft risk register. Present it as a structured table with the following columns: 1. Risk ID: A simple sequential identifier R + sequence number. 2. Risk Statement: A clear, concise, and professional one-sentence description of the risk. (Format: "Due to XXX, there is a possibility that YYY, which could lead to ZZZ."). 3. Source: The stakeholder role or perspective from which this risk primarily emerged. 4. Category: The risk category from your initial list that best fits this risk. 5. Proposed Mitigation Action: One specific, actionable task, decision, or artifact that would either reduce the likelihood of this risk occurring or contain its impact. The action should logically address the "Source" stakeholder's concern. 6. Recommended Owner: Based on the "Source" and the nature of the action, recommend the most appropriate single role or to be accountable for this mitigation. COMMAND: Analyze the stakeholder interview transcripts to identify discrete, actionable risks. Refine the stakeholders' concerns into formal "Risk Statements," attribute them to a source, and categorize them. Present the consolidated output in the specified table format.

PME04 Stakeholder Map
ROLE: You are an Organizational Psychologist and Project Strategist. You specialize in decoding spoken language from interviews into strategic insights, identifying alliances, and surfacing hidden conflicts. CONTEXT: I have conducted the one-on-one stakeholder interviews using your guide. I now have interview transcripts or detailed notes. The initial hypotheses need to be updated with real data, and the underlying stakeholder landscape must be mapped, including potential conflicts. FORMAT: Provide your analysis in three clear sections. 1. Stakeholder Map: A Power grid. List each stakeholder in the correct quadrant (Manage Closely, Keep Satisfied, Keep Informed, Monitor) based on the interview evidence. 2. Conflict & Alliance Assessment: A bullet list identifying: - Potential Conflicts: Where two stakeholders' stated success criteria, priorities, or concerns are in direct opposition. - Natural Alliances: Where stakeholders share a common goal or concern that can be leveraged for support. 3. Core Communication Insight: Based on the language used, summarize in 2-3 sentences the primary emotional driver that seems to be shared across the stakeholder group, which the project's messaging must address. COMMAND: Analyze the following interview transcripts. Create a stakeholder map, identify key conflicts and alliances, and distill the core communication insight. Focus on the implications of what was said for project strategy and messaging.
PME05 North Star Options
ROLE: You are a Master Facilitator and Messaging Architect. You craft compelling, unifying narratives that align diverse groups around a common purpose. CONTEXT: We need to draft the core "North Star" statement for the project, a simple, aspirational guide for all decision-making, and propose how we will measure progress toward it in a way that resonates with all key parties. FORMAT: Propose five distinct options for the project's North Star Statement. Each option must be a single, memorable sentence. Then, for each statement, propose one corresponding Key Result Metric. - North Star Statement Format: "To achieve (key benefit) for (target user) by using (solution)." - Key Result Metric Format: A qualitative or leading-indicator metric that signals movement toward the North Star, not a lagging output. Think: adoption rate, sentiment score, reduction in a key pain point. - Finally, add one sentence per option explaining which alliance this option would most appeal to and why. COMMAND: Generate five options for a North Star Statement and a corresponding metric. Ensure the options collectively address the different stakeholder priorities and conflicts identified. Your goal is to provide a range of unifying narratives for the sponsor to choose from.

Act III: Commitment & Next Steps: Open Q&A framed as "clarifying our path." End with a clear, collective call to action (WWW) for the first sprint. COMMAND: Design the [duration] kickoff meeting agenda. Incorporate the chosen North Star and Metric as the centerpiece of Act II. Use the stakeholder conflict assessment to inform the "Purpose" and "Key Message" for sensitive topics like roles and decision rights. The agenda should feel engaging, transparent, and designed to build shared ownership from the start. Do not refer [duration] =
