Working with someone new always has a run-in period. Wires get crossed, expectations clash, and everyone wastes time figuring out how the other person ticks.
A user manual short-circuits all of that.
It's a short, practical document that tells the people you work with what you need to do your best work — how you like to communicate, what slows you down, and how to get the best out of you.
Use this prompt:
You are a professional writing coach. I'm going to share some rough thoughts about how I work best, and I want you to turn them into a clear, concise user manual I can share with colleagues and collaborators.
Here's how I work:
[dump everything — how you like to communicate, what you need to do your best work, what frustrates you, how you make decisions, how you prefer to give and receive feedback, anything relevant]
Format it as a short, readable document with a few clear sections. Keep the tone warm but direct — like something a real person wrote, not an HR template.
Share it with your team, drop it in your Notion, or send it to anyone you're about to work closely with. It saves a lot of awkward conversations later.
Happy prompting!
