Prompt Workshop

A prompt is a question that is impossible to collaborate on. It points inward, asks for language, and leads to self-knowledge.

For example: what bores you?

Different people would have other answers, and we can’t collaborate on what bores each person, only to ask why (and engage through meaning).

Briefs always lead to collaboration (with another person or knowledge). They are anchored in gravity (the situation) and point to convergence.

For example, what is the secret of a work-life balance?

Experts will approach this from different angles, but the conversation must lead to a meeting on everyone’s direct opinion.

Through [Thirdness, Critical Business School, and Being in Space, I have been developing prompts as a way to bring people into meta conversations and generative discourse spaces.

The scale between prompts and briefs helps start and navigate creative contexts, especially with the growing importance of AI and language models.
