Write a strong closing slide and executive conclusion
Creates a closing that restates the key message, makes a clear ask, and ends with next steps instead of 'Any questions?'.
The prompt
Write a strong conclusion for my presentation to executives.
Presentation summary or slides: [PASTE the key slides or my main points]
The decision or action I need: [WHAT, from whom, by when]
Current closing: [PASTE my last slide or planned words, or "none yet"]
Time I'll have at the end: [e.g. "2 minutes before Q&A"]
A strong executive close:
- Restates the core message in one sentence, not a recap of every slide.
- Makes the ask explicit: approve, fund, choose between options, or unblock something.
- States what happens next: owners, dates, and what happens if we don't act.
- Ends on the ask or next step, not on "Thank you, any questions?".
Return:
1. A diagnosis of my current closing, if given.
2. The closing slide: headline as a full-sentence conclusion, 3 bullets max (key message, ask, next steps with dates in bold), and a layout suggestion.
3. My closing words, written to be spoken (under 120 words), including a line to open Q&A that keeps focus on the decision.
4. A one-sentence fallback close if I run out of time.
5. A follow-up email recapping the decision and next steps, to send the same day.
Don't add commitments, dates, or numbers I haven't given; mark them [CONFIRM].
Highlighted [brackets] are blanks to replace with your own details.

How this prompt is built
This prompt follows the RTF structure (Role, Task, Format). RTF tells the model who to be, what to do and what shape the answer should take. It is the quickest structure that still gives noticeably better results than a bare request.
