Use AI to Clarify Who Should Be on Your Core Team

By now, you’ve written your project vision statement and defined what success looks like. (If not, you can catch up here and here.)

Next up: your core team—the people who will make this project happen.

Paste this into your AI tool and fill in all bracketed details that you are able to. If you're not sure of what should go in the brackets, your AI tool will ask you questions to get to the answer: 

Step 3: Identify Key Players

📌 Prompt:
"I am identifying key team members for my project [insert project vision statement or link]. Please format the response as follows:
• Visionary/Owner: [Who is leading this project?]
• Facilitator: [Who is guiding the team?]
• Team Member(s): [List all key contributors]

Additionally, provide best practices for structuring a core project team for a project like mine. What roles are critical to complete this?

If I don’t know how to answer, ask me things like this to gather the information you need:
• Who is ultimately responsible for the project’s success?
• Who will help facilitate communication and workflow?
• Who needs to be involved to ensure execution?"

Why it matters: A clear team structure saves time, reduces confusion, and gives everyone a defined seat at the table.

Need the template?
We’re continuing to build out the Project Vision Template—make sure you’ve downloaded it to keep everything in one place.

Coming up next: We’ll use AI to map your impacted groups so you can align everyone from exec sponsors to end users.

Until then,
