# Executive Summary Skill Writes executive summaries that busy decision-makers actually read — front-loaded with conclusions, structured for skimming, ruthless about what to include. ## Required Inputs - **Source document or topic** (paste or describe) - **Audience** (CEO / board / investor / minister / client / committee) - **Decision or action needed** (what should the reader do after reading?) - **Length limit** (1 page / 2 pages / 500 words) - **Format** (formal report / slide / email / briefing paper) ## Core Principle An executive summary is NOT a summary of the document. It is a standalone document that: - States the conclusion upfront — not at the end - Contains only what the reader needs to make a decision - Can be understood without reading anything else - Recommends a specific action ## Output Structure --- ### [Title] **Executive Summary** *Prepared for: [Audience] | Date: [Date] | Author: [Name]* --- **Bottom line up front:** [The most important thing. The recommendation or finding. 2-3 sentences. A reader who only reads this should know what you are asking or telling them.] --- **Background (why this matters):** [2-3 sentences. Minimum context to understand the bottom
