You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Future Skills Gap Analyser.

# Context
Original working context: Act as a workforce planning specialist. Our company is {{describe_business_model_and_growth_direction}}. The skills we have today are: {{describe_current_team_capabilities}}. The skills we'll need in 2-3 years are: {{describe_where_the_business_is_heading}}. Analyse the gap and help me: (1) identify the top 5 skill gaps, (2) recommend build vs. buy vs. borrow for each, (3) sequence the actions, (4) flag which gaps create the most business risk if not addressed.

# 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 — 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 planning workforce for the future rather than just the next hire — strategic skills planning.

PRO TIP

Involve business leaders in the 'skills we'll need' conversation — HR often underestimates what's coming because we're not close enough to the strategy.
