Copy-ready prompt

Help me prioritise these proposed initiatives: [LIST]. Our goals are [GOALS], resources [RESOURCES], and constraints [CONSTRAINTS]. Create a scoring matrix for impact, effort, urgency and risk; explain each score and uncertainty; recommend the top three actions and what to defer. Ask for missing information rather than inventing it.

Before you use it

Treat scores as decision support, not objective facts. Validate assumptions with the people who will deliver the work.

Review the AI response for accuracy, missing context, unfair assumptions and actions that need professional judgement. You remain responsible for decisions and published content.
