Use AI to prepare a reverse agenda that anticipates what others will ask you during a meeting.
Most people prepare what they want to say in a meeting. But the real stress comes from what others might ask you — the questions you didn't see coming. This prompt helps you think ahead by putting you in the shoes of everyone else attending. AI generates the questions they're likely to ask based on the meeting topic and who's in the room, so you can prepare answers in advance instead of fumbling on the spot.

“Act as a meeting strategy coach. I have an upcoming meeting and I want to prepare for questions others might ask me. Here's the context: - Meeting topic: [describe what the meeting is about] - My role or what I'm presenting: [what you're responsible for or discussing] - Who else will be there: [list the attendees and their roles, e.g., "my manager, the finance lead, two people from operations"] - What I'm worried about: [optional - any specific concerns, like "I don't have final budget numbers yet" or "one person opposed this idea last time"] Based on this, generate a list of 8-10 questions these people are most likely to ask me during the meeting. For each question, give me a one-sentence note on why they'd ask it and a suggested talking point I can prepare in advance.”
