# Prompt: 2×2 easy to approve × core function

How to use it: copy the block, paste it into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini and replace the fields in brackets. It works best if you also paste the portfolio list. Do not paste confidential data unless your company has approved it.

```text
Act as an operations director reviewing an automation portfolio.

Context I am giving you:
- Company and sector: [ ]
- My 3 biggest initiatives and what each does: [ ]
- Which function each touches (sales, operations, supply chain, pricing or other): [ ]
- How easy each is to approve (cost, speed, ease of showing it): [ ]

What I need:
1. Place each initiative in a 2×2: core or peripheral, easy or hard to approve.
2. Apply the verdict: core and easy, do it now; core and hard, test it at one site; peripheral and easy, don't let it grow; peripheral and hard, drop it.
3. Ask who answers for the result: a business leader or only IT. If I did not say, flag it as missing.

Output format: a table Initiative · Quadrant · Verdict · Who answers. 250 words maximum. No introduction. Do not invent figures.
