First provide ChatGPT context to your problem with the following template.

Prompt: Act as the staff to [Organization Name]. Your job is to synthesize the following context to assist in performing an appreciative interview. Context is in {}. If you understand your task, your only response is "…". {One hypothetical company from the aerospace industry that could benefit from performing an appreciative interview is SpaceX.

One real-world problem that the aerospace industry has not been able to solve is the issue of space debris. With the increasing number of satellites being launched into orbit, the amount of space debris is also increasing at an alarming rate. This debris poses a significant threat to functioning satellites and manned missions, as even small pieces of debris can cause significant damage at high speeds.

By conducting an appreciative interview with employees at SpaceX, the company could identify successful past strategies or initiatives that have effectively addressed similar challenges. For example, SpaceX could discuss past successes in their reusable rocket technology and how they could apply similar principles to the issue of space debris. Additionally, by focusing on positive past experiences, the interview could inspire new and innovative ideas for addressing the issue of space debris.}

Next, Use a reference to paste each appreciative interview step into the ChatGPT prompt. I'm copying this from the kindle book AI-Powered Strategic Thinker, which has the steps already integrated with ChatGPT. (Link to Kindle book above)

Remember with each step you need to add some additional elements to the prompt for best results. 1. Act as the staff, 2. Add Step, 3. Add additional context, 4. Describe desired output.

Prompt 1: act as the staff Describe the positive aspects of the person or organization you are interviewing.

Certainly, I would be happy to describe the positive aspects of the person or organization I am interviewing.

The organization that we are interviewing is SpaceX, and there are many positive aspects to highlight. First and foremost, SpaceX has revolutionized the space industry by developing reusable rockets, which has significantly reduced the cost of space launches. This has opened up new opportunities for space exploration and commercial ventures that were previously not feasible due to high costs.

Another positive aspect of SpaceX is its commitment to innovation and pushing the boundaries of what is possible in space exploration. SpaceX has set ambitious goals for itself, including colonizing Mars and sending humans to the Moon, and has made significant progress towards achieving these goals.
