Boss Update · Short-Form Manager Sync · CN-context
CN-only · End-of-week 'boss update' message in 200 characters: 1 win + 1 ask + 1 risk-I-handled — designed for Feishu/DingTalk/WeChat, 30 seconds to read, no reply required.
Pain addressed · Friday-evening manager updates are the trap: too long and they ignore you, too short and you look idle, four drafts in by 11pm and still no reply — anxiety compounds.
Boss Update · Short-Form Manager Sync · CN-context
CN-only prompt. See prompt_zh.
This scenario (xiangshanghuibao · upward reporting via WeChat/Feishu/DingTalk · proactive weekly update to your direct manager) is a Chinese workplace expectation. The Western equivalent is closer to "weekly 1-on-1 prep" — typically more formal, in scheduled meetings, and not a Friday-night chat message. Use marketing-weekly-recap if you want the long-form, document-style version.Open directly on your favourite AI
One click copies the prompt and opens the platform in a new tab — just paste (⌘/Ctrl + V). Recommended platforms are ordered by content fit.
Workflow · 5 steps
- 1
This is a CN-specific 'Friday-night manager ping' format. If you're outside CN, use marketing-weekly-recap instead — Western managers expect the longer recap, not a chat-message.
- 2
If you still want this format: dump the week (5pm Friday) into one block, tag [√] wins / [?] needs decision / [!] risks.
- 3
Run the prompt in Kimi or Doubao for native short-form Chinese tone; replace {paste_weekly_summary}.
- 4
Audit four things on the draft: the win has a real number, the ask names your own preferred answer, the risk shows what you already did, total length under 200 characters.
- 5
Send between 7-8pm Friday. Don't follow up; the format is explicitly fire-and-forget.
Verify before you ship
AI's "almost right" is the #1 pain. Tick these off so reviewers can't find the obvious holes. (Checkbox state stays local — we don't track it.)
Why this prompt works
This prompt isn't a generic “write me a Boss Update (CN-only)”. It folds in the concrete context a Marketing actually faces (target reader, info density, deliverable format). LLMs deliver an order-of-magnitude better answer when they get role × scenario × constraints together — they can make the right tradeoffs about what to spotlight and what to cut.
When to use
Best moment: you know roughly that you need to do a Boss Update (CN-only), but you're stuck on “how do I even ask the AI?” Muscle memory has no template. Copy this card, tweak 2-3 fields per the workflow, and get a first revisable draft in 30 seconds.
Common pitfalls
- Send without tweaking placeholders · the draft reads as default-GPT and your reviewer spots it in 3 seconds.
- Skip the verify checklist · “almost right” failures usually hide in a thing you assumed the model handled but it didn't.
- Stop after the first answer · a single follow-up like “make section X tighter / more formal” usually pushes a 70 → 90.
Variants & extensions
Want to use this card more aggressively? Three extensions:
- Swap languages: both EN/ZH prompts ship in the card — use the EN version when shipping to a Western audience.
- Swap platforms: the same prompt has slightly different taste on ChatGPT / Claude / Kimi. The recommended-platform pill marks the best fit.
- Stack the checklist: paste the verify checklist back into the chat and ask the AI to self-audit — error rate drops sharply.
