The spoken explanation, organised by chapter.

0:00One shared way of working

This explanation accompanies our article on ChatGPT for business. How do individual prompts become a shared practice that colleagues can use, review and improve together?

0:13Different summaries, same source

A fictional service team summarises the same working instruction. Each colleague takes a different approach. One summary loses an important exception, although the wording sounds convincing.

0:26Make the task repeatable

The team selects one task: summarising an instruction for internal use. It defines the source, expected structure, boundaries and the point at which someone reviews the result.

0:38Agree how information is used

First agree which information people may use, who manages access and where results can be shared. Check the features actually available in your workspace and configuration.

0:50Give the task clear boundaries

The instruction requests main steps and exceptions using only the supplied text. Missing information must remain visible. The output is a draft, rather than an approved instruction.

1:03Compare the draft with its source

A colleague checks the draft against the original instruction. Are conditions preserved? Has anything been added? A missing exception is corrected before anyone uses the summary elsewhere.

1:15Assess the complete task

Ask several colleagues to work through the same examples. Record errors, questions and correction effort. Polished wording or one successful example does not establish usefulness across the team.

1:29Start with a small group

Choose an initial user group and an owner for instructions and changes. After the trial, decide which tasks continue, need adjustment or remain outside the agreed practice.

1:42Build a practice you can assess

Start with working agreements, rather than a collection of prompts. Our source article on ChatGPT for business explains how configuration, everyday use and evaluation fit together.
