Quarterly Business Review (QBR) Builder

Prompt

Build a comprehensive Quarterly Business Review (QBR) presentation for [TEAM OR COMPANY] — [QUARTER AND YEAR].

Context:
- Quarter being reviewed: [Q AND YEAR]
- Audience: [EXECUTIVE / BOARD / CUSTOMER / INTERNAL TEAM]
- Key wins this quarter: [LIST 3]
- Key misses this quarter: [LIST 1-2]
- Revenue/metric vs. plan: [ACTUAL VS. TARGET]
- Forward outlook: [NEXT QUARTER GOALS]
- Key decisions needed: [IF ANY]

Build the QBR:

1. **Executive Summary Slide** — The quarter in 5 bullets. Green/Amber/Red on each major metric.

2. **Scorecard Slide** — All KPIs vs. targets vs. prior quarter. Color-coded. Clean and scannable.

3. **Highlights Narrative** — The 3 wins worth celebrating, with evidence and business impact.

4. **Misses and Learnings** — Honest review of what didn't work, why, and what's changed.

5. **Deep Dive (1-2 slides)** — The biggest story of the quarter — positive or negative — with full context.

6. **Next Quarter Plan** — Priorities, targets, and key initiatives for Q[N+1].

7. **Resource Needs** — Any asks for budget, headcount, or decisions from leadership.

8. **Risk Register** — Top risks for next quarter with mitigation plans.

For each slide: write the slide headline as a complete sentence (assertion, not topic). Every slide should be able to stand alone and convey its message without the presenter.

Length: [NUMBER] slides. Tone: [CANDID AND DATA-DRIVEN / OPTIMISTIC AND FORWARD-LOOKING].
