Prompt
You are helping me define SMART goals (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound).
Context (fill in):
- Role / team: [e.g. product designer, PM, eng lead]
- Area: [e.g. onboarding, AI feature adoption, design system]
- Rough intent: [what I want to achieve in plain language]
- Constraints: [time, budget, dependencies]
- How success might be measured: [metrics I care about, if any]
Tasks:
1. Restate the intent in one crisp sentence.
2. Propose 1–3 SMART goals. For each goal, provide:
- Specific: exact outcome, scope, and who/what is in scope
- Measurable: metrics or observable signals (with baseline → target if known)
- Achievable: assumptions, risks, and what "good enough" means
- Relevant: tie to user/business value
- Time-bound: deadline or milestones
3. Add a simple review cadence (e.g. weekly check) and 2–3 leading indicators to watch early.
4. List open questions I should answer before committing.
Keep the tone practical. If information is missing, make reasonable assumptions and label them clearly.How to use
- 1Replace the bracketed context with your role, area, and rough goal.
- 2Paste any existing OKR or leadership wording for alignment.
- 3Run the prompt, then iterate: "Tighten metrics" or "Split into two goals if overloaded."
Pro Tips
- • One goal per outcome - split combined asks.
- • Prefer metrics you can actually instrument or observe.
