Overview
Understanding what other teams are working on shouldn’t require reading their Jira tickets or sitting in their standups. This preset delivers high-level summaries of any team’s work in language anyone can understand.
What this is for
This preset solves the cross-functional awareness problem. Product needs to know what engineering is building, marketing needs to understand what product is planning, and everyone needs context on what adjacent teams are doing. The alternative is sitting in meetings that are 80% irrelevant to you or trying to decode technical updates written for domain experts.
The Cross-team highlights preset gives you non-technical monthly summaries of any team’s work organized into 5 high-level themes. You get the context you need to coordinate effectively without having to become an expert in their tools, jargon, or processes.
Who should use this
Product managers who need to stay informed about what engineering shipped without reading commit messages. You’ll understand what went out the door in language you can share with customers.
Marketing leaders planning campaigns around product releases who need to know what’s coming without technical details. You’ll get the narrative you need for positioning without wading through sprint planning notes.
Cross-functional team leads managing dependencies across design, engineering, and operations. You’ll spot when your team’s work depends on another team’s progress before it becomes a bottleneck.
The prompt
