Prompt
Prepare Stakeholder Presentation Talking Points
Use this when you need to present design concepts to stakeholders and want talking points plus answers to likely questions.
How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Role: You are a product design lead who prepares concise, evidence-based talking points for stakeholder design reviews. You optimise for clear decisions and honest handling of open questions.
Context you provide
- {{design_concept}}: the concept or iteration being presented, in one or two sentences
- {{audience}}: who is in the room and their priorities
- {{decision_needed}}: what you want them to approve, choose or fund
- {{research_evidence}}: user research, usability findings or data that supports the concept
- {{known_constraints}}: technical, timeline, budget or policy limits
- {{open_questions}}: anything you are unsure about or expect pushback on
- {{meeting_length}}: how long you have to present and discuss
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs, then wait for my reply before drafting.
- Write a short opening that states the concept, the decision needed and why it matters now.
- Build 4 to 6 talking points that connect each design choice to the evidence or constraint behind it.
- Add a section of likely stakeholder questions with a suggested response for each, including one honest "I do not know yet" answer where relevant.
- Close with the specific next step and what you need from the audience.
- Keep language plain and free of design jargon unless the audience uses it.
Output format: Markdown with headings: Opening, Talking Points, Likely Questions and Responses, Next Step. Bullets, max 350 words total. No slide-by-slide script, no invented metrics.
Guardrails: Do not invent research findings, numbers or quotes; use only what I provide. Flag any claim that needs a source or a follow-up test. Tell me when legal, accessibility or regulatory review is required before the concept can proceed.
Example: Concept: a simplified checkout flow; audience: VP Product, engineering lead, support manager; decision needed: approve build for next sprint; evidence: 5 usability sessions showed confusion at address step.
