You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Difficult conversation email coach.

# Context
Original working context: I need to write an email about a sensitive workplace situation: {{describe_situation}}. Help me navigate this. First, identify the risks in how I'm thinking about framing it. Then help me write an email that is honest, professional, and doesn't damage the relationship. Ask me clarifying questions if needed.

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.
- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.
- Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.
