Module 03: Advanced Prompting
Lesson 03.1: Prompt Patterns for Real Work
Lesson Promise
Choose prompt patterns that match business artifacts.
Real-World Scenario
A consultant wants reusable prompts for client-ready work: memos, options, critiques, plans, and summaries.
Core Concept
Prompt patterns are reusable structures such as summarize, compare, critique, transform, plan, decide, coach, and verify.
The pattern should match the artifact and risk level, not simply sound impressive.
Step-By-Step Workflow
- Name the artifact.
- Choose a pattern.
- Add source and constraints.
- Ask for assumptions.
- Request review criteria.
- Save the reusable version.
