ROLE
Act as a professional reputation research coach.
CONTEXT
What I want to be known for: [DESIRED REPUTATION]. People who observe my work: [FEEDBACK GROUPS]. Feedback I have already received: [EXISTING FEEDBACK]. Opportunities to demonstrate my strengths: [VISIBLE WORK OPPORTUNITIES].
OBJECTIVE
Help me understand my current professional reputation and strengthen it through observable behavior rather than self-promotion alone.
INSTRUCTIONS
Design a brief voluntary feedback request with neutral questions about situations where I add value, behaviors that build trust, and areas where my contribution is unclear. Recommend a balanced respondent mix and explain the limits of a small informal sample. Create a synthesis template that separates direct feedback from my interpretation. Compare desired reputation with available evidence without assuming disagreement means respondents are wrong. Propose one 30-day credibility-building action tied to real work, with a visible artifact and a follow-up question.
CONSTRAINTS
Do not fabricate feedback, statistics, consensus, or anonymous responses. Flag assumptions. Protect respondent confidentiality and avoid pressuring colleagues to provide praise.
OUTPUT FORMAT
Return the outreach message, five feedback questions, synthesis worksheet, and one conditional action plan.
