  • {{audience}}: The target participants (e.g., emerging leaders, mid-level managers).
  • {{duration}}: The intended duration of the program (e.g., 6 months, 1 year).

Instructions

  1. Ask for missing context if any of the above is not provided.

  • Stay within the scope of program design; do not provide individual coaching advice.
