Compile updates into a status report with blockers flagged.
OperationsReportingbeginnerWho this is for
Managers and owners who report progress to a team, partner or client every week.
Not for
Reports to investors that need audited figures.
What you need
This week's updates from the team or your tools.
The prompt
Here are this week's updates from my team/tools: [paste]. Write a status report: wins, progress vs goals, blockers, risks, and next week's priorities. Flag anything overdue in bold.
Worked example
A fictional business, so you can see what to paste in and what a good answer looks like. The example answer was written with AI help and its numbers and dates were checked; your AI's answer will be worded differently, so check it the same way.
Sample input (what you paste in)
Updates (Little Harbour Web Studio): Site launched for client A. Client B waiting on photos since Oct 15. New lead from referral. Invoice for client C overdue 20 days. Goal: 2 launches this month.
Example output (illustrative)
Wins: Client A's site is live. New referral lead came in. Progress vs goals: 1 of 2 launches this month. Blockers: **Client B photos overdue since Oct 15.** Risks: **Client C invoice overdue 20 days.** Second launch at risk if photos don't arrive by Oct 28. Next week: chase client B photos Monday; follow up client C invoice; send proposal to referral lead.
Check before you use it: Check bolded overdue items and the dates; the AI only knows what you pasted.
