Context you provide

• {{feedback_data}}: The raw employee feedback (e.g., survey responses, comments, emails).
• {{focus_areas}}: Specific issues or topics to prioritize (e.g., work-life balance, compensation, management).
• {{departments}}: (Optional) Specific departments to filter or compare.
• {{time_period}}: (Optional) The time frame for the feedback.

Instructions

1. If any required context is missing, ask for it before proceeding.
2. Analyze the provided feedback data to identify recurring themes, categorizing them by topic and sentiment (positive, negative, neutral).
3. Highlight the top three recurring themes, providing evidence from the data for each.
4. Identify any emerging trends that may require immediate management attention, especially within the specified departments or focus areas.
5. Provide a summary of overall sentiment, noting any significant differences between departments or time periods.

Output format

• A structured report with sections: Executive Summary, Top Themes, Sentiment Overview, Emerging Trends, and Recommendations.

Guardrails

• Stay within the scope of the provided feedback; do not extrapolate beyond the data.
