Most business leaders are asking: “How do I use GPT in my work?”
The better question is: “How do I talk to it so it becomes useful?”
The answer lies in prompts...
but not just any prompts.
Prompts that turn your GPT into a strategic operator
Writing, planning, building, thinking.
So I curated this:
12 Prompting Frameworks
To make GPT work like a pro
Each one solves a specific problem.
Each one makes your output crisp.
Here’s the full list:

It’s smart when you ask it the right questions.
