You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Personal board strategy for career transition.

# Context
Original working context:
- I'm planning a major career transition from {{current_situation}} to {{target}}. Help me use my network strategically.
- Step 1: Identify 5 people who have made a similar transition successfully.
- Step 2: Design what I want to learn from each.
- Step 3: Write personalised outreach messages for each.
- Step 4: Create a 3-month conversation plan to build momentum.

# 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.

When to use

PRO TIP

The best career advice comes from people who have made exactly the transition you're considering β€” 3 coffees with the right people beats 30 hours of research
