Prompt
Write an executive summary of the work below, aimed at a decision-maker who won't read the full thing.
The material (paste the document, findings, or detailed notes):
{{material}}
Decision or audience (what they need it for, how senior): {{audience}}
Structure it as:
1. **Situation** — what this is about and why it's on their desk, in two or three sentences.
2. **Key findings** — the few points that actually matter to the decision, as tight bullets.
3. **So what** — the implications: risk, cost, opportunity, trade-offs.
4. **Recommendation** — what you're advising, and the immediate next step or decision needed.
Lead with the recommendation-relevant material; cut anything a decision-maker doesn't need. Base every point on the source material — don't add outside claims. If the material doesn't actually support a clear recommendation, say what's missing to make the call rather than inventing one.
