Turn a mediocre first answer into a great final one with three follow-up moves.
Ben's got a first draft on screen (an intro for the September parent newsletter) and it's… fine. A solid 6 out of 10. His cursor hovers between two old instincts: settle for it, or close the tab and call the whole thing overrated.
Across the desk, Priya gets 9/10 results from the same model. Ben has watched her do it. So before she says a word, what does she actually do differently?
Check your intuition
Same model, same kind of task. What separates Priya's 9/10 from Ben's 6/10?
Three follow-up moves do most of the lifting. Learn them by name.
Tighten. Cut, sharpen, reformat: "halve it", "as a table", "lead with the numbers". Redirect. Change the angle: "less salesy", "write it for a sceptical finance director". Interrogate. Make it show its working: "what did you assume?", "argue against your own recommendation". Ten seconds each. Prove you can tell them apart.
