The RISEN™ Prompt Framework

Turn vague prompts into reliable, business-grade AI outputs.

At the core of every Forward AI workshop is the RISEN™ Framework—a simple, battle-tested structure that makes AI prompts clear, controllable, and repeatable across your team.

  • R — Role: Define who the AI is acting as (e.g. product manager, analyst, copywriter).
  • I — Instruction: Give a precise, outcome-oriented directive instead of a loose question.
  • S — Steps: Outline the process you want the AI to follow so outputs are auditable.
  • E — End Goal: State the final artifact and success criteria in business language.
  • N — Narrowing: Add constraints, examples, and edge cases to remove ambiguity.

Your team will leave with a shared language for prompts—and a RISEN™ library tailored to your most important workflows.

Why Forward AI

Practical, opinionated, and built for busy operators.

This isn’t a keynote about the future of work. It’s a working session focused on how your people save time this month with the tools you already have.

Practical Skills, Not Theory

Every concept is paired with live demos and real scenarios from your business, so adoption feels obvious—not forced.

Hands-On, Guided Exercises

Participants build and refine prompts and workflows live, leaving with assets they can use the next day.

Time-Saving, Measurable Results

Each session ends with clear next steps, measurement ideas, and owner assignments so momentum doesn’t die after the workshop.
