Executive Status Generator

Pro v1.0.0 1 view

Transform raw PM status notes into polished executive summaries with progress highlights, decisions needed, blockers/risks, and metrics.

What You Get

Convert messy status notes into structured 5-minute executive updates with clear asks, business-focused language, and visual indicators for quick scanning.

The Problem

Product managers spend 60-120 minutes every week formatting status updates for executives. Raw notes, Slack messages, and sprint updates need to be translated into business language, organized into scannable sections, and formatted with clear decisions and action items.

The Solution

This skill transforms scattered PM notes into polished executive status updates. It identifies key themes and highlights, structures content into standard sections (KEY HIGHLIGHTS, PROGRESS, DECISIONS NEEDED, BLOCKERS, NEXT STEPS), translates technical details to business impact, and formats for 5-minute consumption. Supports weekly updates, monthly board reports, and crisis communications.

How It Works

  1. 1 Gather raw status notes including progress updates, metrics, blockers, decisions needed, and context about audience and update type
  2. 2 Analyze notes to extract top highlights, categorize progress (shipped vs on track vs at risk), prioritize decisions, and assess risk severity
  3. 3 Structure content into executive-friendly sections with KEY HIGHLIGHTS, PROGRESS UPDATE, DECISIONS NEEDED, BLOCKERS & RISKS, and NEXT STEPS
  4. 4 Translate technical details to business impact language, frame decisions with options and recommendations, make blockers actionable with specific asks
  5. 5 Format for 5-minute read with visual indicators, bold key phrases, clear spacing, and 300-600 word target length

What You'll Need

  • Raw status notes (sprint updates, meeting notes, metrics, blockers)
  • Audience context (CEO, board, CTO, department heads)
  • Update type (weekly, monthly, crisis)
