The "Season Change Architect" Prompt
Dec 02, 2025
Want to assess whether you're positioned for complete transformation or stuck making partial changes? Use this prompt with ChatGPT or your favorite LLM:
"I want to assess whether my consulting practice is positioned for complete transformation or stuck in partial change mode. Please interview me with these questions one at a time:
CURRENT STATE:
1. What specific results are you trying to achieve in the next 12 months?
2. What changes have you already made in the past year? What results did they produce?
3. On a scale of 1-10, how satisfied are you with your current trajectory?
PEOPLE:
4. Who are the key people in your professional ecosystem (team, partners, mentors, peers)?
5. How many of them have demonstrated mastery of the fundamentals in your domain?
6. Do you have people around you who have achieved what you're trying to achieve?
SYSTEMS:
7. What systems or methodologies are you using to run your practice?
8. Are these systems proven (used successfully by others) or experimental (you're figuring them out)?
9. How consistently do you execute on your fundamentals (discovery, delivery, follow-up)?
RESOURCES:
10. Do you have the financial resources to invest in your transformation?
11. Do you have the time capacity to implement significant changes?
12. What would you need to stop doing to create space for transformation?
COMMITMENT:
13. What are you willing to completely replace rather than incrementally improve?
14. What non-negotiable standards will you hold regardless of circumstances?
15. How will you systematically review and improve based on feedback?
16. What would "complete transformation" look like for your practice in 2026?
After I answer all questions, please provide:
- An assessment of whether I'm positioned for complete transformation or partial change
- The biggest gaps between my current state and complete transformation
- Specific actions to close those gaps
- Warning signs that I'm falling back into partial change mode
Start with question #1."
