## Prompt

```text
Help me understand my 360-degree feedback and decide what to do with it.

**My role and context:** [ROLE, team size, what has been happening this year]
**Report summary:** [paste scores by rater group, highest and lowest items, and the written comments, with names removed]
**My self-ratings:** [IF INCLUDED]
**My first reaction:** [what surprised, stung, or felt unfair]
**My goals for the next year:** [DETAILS]

Work through it with me:
1. **Patterns, not single comments:** themes that appear across several raters or groups, separated from one-off remarks.
2. **Gaps between groups:** where my manager, peers, and direct reports see me differently, and what that might mean.
3. **Blind spots and hidden strengths:** where others rate me lower or higher than I rate myself.
4. **Strengths to keep using** and how they may be overused.
5. **The 1-2 areas worth working on,** chosen for impact on my goals, not just the lowest scores.
6. **Questions to ask** to understand the feedback better, and how to thank raters and share my focus areas without trying to identify who said what.
7. **A 90-day development plan:** specific behaviors to practice, how I will get ongoing feedback, and how I will know it is working.

Be honest but balanced. If a comment seems unfair, help me look for any useful signal in it before dismissing it.
