Journal / Better briefs

Start with a role, then write the prompt.

A clear role turns a broad request into a useful working relationship. It tells an AI teammate what good work looks like and where to stop.

A little help. A whole lot of possibility.
01

A role is a set of responsibilities

“Sales Outbound” is only a label until you define the deliverable. Research, prioritization, drafting, and sending are different responsibilities. Make the boundary visible.

02

Context makes the role specific

A good brief includes the audience, the inputs, and an example of the expected output. These details do more for consistency than a long list of personality traits.

03

Review is part of the workflow

Tell the bee how you will judge the work. Ask it to flag missing information and explain assumptions. The result should make your decision easier, not hide uncertainty.
