Claude and ChatGPT open with your prompt already typed in. Gemini can't be filled in from a link, so its button copies your prompt: paste it into the new chat.

The prompt that gets copied

Help me map stakeholders for a client project. Project goal: [PROJECT GOAL]. People involved, by role, with what I've observed: [STAKEHOLDER ROLES, e.g. CFO quiet but asks hard questions]. Build: 1. A table with each role's influence (high, medium or low), current support (champion, neutral or skeptic), what they care about most and their likely objection. 2. A simple two-by-two grid of influence and support, described in text I can redraw. 3. The three people to talk to first and what to ask each. 4. Where two stakeholders' interests clash and how to handle it. 5. What could quietly derail the project. Mark anything you're guessing from the role rather than from what I told you.

Describe the people around your project by role. You get a stakeholder map of influence and support, what each person cares about, likely objections and who to talk to first.

Step by step

  1. List the roles involved and what you know about each, without names.
  2. Paste the prompt with your project goal.
  3. Correct anything that doesn't match what you've seen.
  4. Plan your next three conversations from the who-first list.

What you'll get

A stakeholder table, an influence and support grid, a who-first plan, clashing interests and hidden risks, with guesses marked.
