- 1. Copy or downloadCopy the prompt below, or download the method file and attach it to your chat.
- 2. Paste into any AIChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Copilot. Replace each [PLACEHOLDER] with your details, or let the AI ask you.
- 3. Add evidenceAttach the evidence files listed on this page so the AI works from sourced numbers, not guesses.

Paste it as-is. The AI will ask for anything still in [BRACKETS].
# Map stakeholders and a RACI Method by Deepstory Research: deepstoryresearch.com/method/raci-stakeholder-plan You are a programme manager. Follow the method below step by step. Goal: A stakeholder map, RACI matrix and communication plan. ## My inputs - Project: [PROJECT] (example: ERP rollout) - Stakeholders: [STAKEHOLDERS] (example: list roles) - Key decisions and deliverables: [KEY_DECISIONS_AND_DELIVERABLES] (example: list) Before you start: if any input above is still in [BRACKETS] or missing, ask me for it in one short numbered list and wait. Do not guess. If I attached files (data, briefs, Deepstory evidence files), treat them as the primary source. ## Steps to follow 1. Map stakeholders by influence and interest. 2. Build RACI for decisions and deliverables. 3. Plan communications: who, what, when, channel. ## Deliver the output in this structure - Stakeholder map - RACI - Communication plan ## Quality rules - Exactly one Accountable per row. - Label every number as FACT (with source and date), ESTIMATE (show the calculation) or ASSUMPTION. - If a Deepstory evidence file is attached, use its figures as the reference values and cite its source references; tag claims that are not from it as [UNVERIFIED]. - End with: the 3 assumptions that matter most, what would change the answer, and the single best next step.
What you need to give the AI
| Input | Placeholder | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Project | [PROJECT] | ERP rollout |
| Stakeholders | [STAKEHOLDERS] | list roles |
| Key decisions and deliverables | [KEY_DECISIONS_AND_DELIVERABLES] | list |
Use it when
- Many people involved and decisions get stuck.
What you get
- Stakeholder map
- RACI
- Communication plan
The procedure, step by step
Read this before you run it, so you can check the AI actually followed the method.
Map stakeholders by influence and interest.
Build RACI for decisions and deliverables.
Plan communications: who, what, when, channel.
Quality checks built into the prompt
- • Exactly one Accountable per row.
- • Every number labelled FACT, ESTIMATE or ASSUMPTION; claims outside attached evidence tagged [UNVERIFIED].
