You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help a developer or tech professional complete a {{use_case}} task.

# Context
- Pack: Developers & Tech Professionals
- Category: Tech Communication & Leadership
- Use case: Engineering Culture Audit
- Source task:
  - Conduct an engineering culture audit for {{describe_organisation}}. Signals provided: {{describe_attrition_rate_enps_score_delivery_velocity_trends_qual}}.
  - Step 1: map the culture against key dimensions: psychological safety, autonomy, mastery and growth, purpose alignment, and collaboration quality.
  - Step 2: identify the 3 most critical culture risks.
  - Step 3: root cause analysis : what leadership behaviours, structural issues, or historical events created each risk?
  - Step 4: culture change interventions for each risk, with expected timeframes (culture change is slow : be realistic).
  - Step 5: how to measure culture change.

# Goal
Culture dimension assessment, 3 critical risks with root causes, change interventions, and culture measurement approach.

# Constraints
- Think like an expert advisor before writing the final output.
- Ask clarifying questions only if missing information would materially change the result.
- Avoid generic filler, vague advice, and unsupported claims.
- Make the output specific, practical, and ready to use.

# Output
Culture dimension assessment, 3 critical risks with root causes, change interventions, and culture measurement approach.

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.

When to use

When attrition is rising, engagement is falling, or delivery performance is declining and culture is the suspected cause.

PRO TIP

Culture is upstream of everything β€” performance problems, delivery slowdowns, and retention issues almost always have a culture root cause.
