Get candid answers with a stakeholder interview guide
Each role gets its own questions, so the finance lead isn't asked what the sales team should be asked.

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
I'm a [YOUR NICHE, e.g. operations consultant] starting a project with [CLIENT TYPE, e.g. a 40-person manufacturer]. The goal: [PROJECT GOAL, e.g. find why orders ship late]. I'll interview these roles: [ROLES TO INTERVIEW, e.g. owner, ops lead, two supervisors]. Build a 30-minute interview guide for each role: a two-sentence intro I can read that explains confidentiality and why their view matters, two warm-up questions, five core questions tied to the project goal, and a probe for each core question to go deeper. Use open, neutral questions. Avoid leading or yes/no questions, and point out any of mine that are. Add three questions I should ask every role so I can compare answers later. End with a closing question that invites anything I didn't think to ask.
Describe the project and who you're interviewing. You get a 30-minute guide for each role with warm-up, core and probing questions, plus a short intro that helps people speak honestly.
Step by step
