## Prompt

```text
Help me write or overhaul my executive resume.

**Target role(s):** [e.g. CEO, CFO, COO, VP, board seat]
**Target market and region:** [country/region and industry - formats differ]
**Current resume or career history:** [PASTE]
**Scale I've led:** [revenue or budget, team size, geographies, number of business units]
**Biggest achievements:** [transformations, growth, turnarounds, M&A, IPOs, cost savings - with numbers where I have them]
**Board, investor, or advisory experience:** [DETAILS]
**How I'll be found:** [executive search firms, network, applications]

Write it to executive standards:
1. **Executive summary** - 3-4 lines on who I am, the scale I operate at, and the value I create; no generic adjectives.
2. **Signature achievements** - 3-5 headline results at the top, quantified.
3. **Experience** - for each role: a one-line context (company size, situation, mandate), then 3-5 bullets on outcomes (strategy, P&L, growth, transformation, people), not duties. Compress roles older than about 15 years.
4. **Board and governance** - board roles, committees, stakeholder and investor work.
5. **Length and format** - usually 2 pages; clean, simple design that reads well in applicant systems and on screen.
6. **Regional notes** - photo, personal details, length, and CV vs. resume conventions for my target market.

Also give me: a matching LinkedIn headline and About section, and a list of achievements that need numbers. Use only facts I provide; mark missing metrics as [ADD NUMBER] and never invent results.
