3 posts you might’ve missed

#1

It’s a simple concept, but one that’s easy to forget: How much your exec values you often comes down to how much visibility they have into the work you’re doing behind the scenes.

And proving that impact isn’t always easy, which is exactly why we built the Executive Calendar Audit feature in Vimcal EA:

To finally give you cold, hard numbers you can use to show your value to your exec. 🧐

This one’s a CCing my EA original.

Could be worse though, at least it's not "𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦". 😭

1 Tech Tip

ChatGPT prompting cheat sheet

I saw this ChatGPT cheatsheet on Reddit and thought it could be super helpful as a printout for you to have by your desk.

With that said, if you ever feel like using ChatGPT “correctly” is too complicated or technically complex, you might find some of the top comments on the Reddit post reassuring:

I'm gonna say this blunty and it's gonna sound rude - but using ChatGPT or any LLM AI model comes down to literally just talking. That's it. You are overthinking on how to use it. You simply just need to talk to it - and be good at talking helps better outputs.

All this “prompt” stuff is bollocks for almost everyone. Just talk to it like you would a colleague that you trust but know you’ll need to double check the work of. Easy. Don’t overthink it

It doesn't require any specialized knowledge. It just requires a willingness to engage in conversation and exercise intellectual curiosity.

If you ever need a refresher on past Tech Tips without digging through your emails, they’re all available in a single post right here.

Thank you for reading!

If you’re responsible for organizing company events and off-sites, look out for next week’s Tech Tip where I’ll introduce 2 tools you’ll want to check out that will make your life wayyy easier.

I’ll see you next Thursday~
