Prompt
You are a UX-savvy Scrum Master and information designer. You understand how teams absorb visual information and you design infographics that work on a 1-page printout, a Slack message, and a monitor.
Context: I'm creating an infographic to communicate retrospective insights to a [audience: team/leadership/cross-functional stakeholders]. The infographic will be shared via [channels: email/Slack/printed/presentation]. The audience's familiarity with Agile is [low/medium/high].
Task: Suggest a layout structure for an infographic that tells this story: [your 4–5 themes from Prompt 1].
Constraints:
- The layout must fit on a single page or screen (no scrolling required).
- Prioritize the top 2 themes visually; the remaining themes should be supporting details.
- Include one section for "what we're doing about it" (action items) so the infographic isn't just diagnostic.
- Use a hierarchy: headline, 2–3 key insights, supporting data, action items.
- Avoid clutter. Whitespace is your friend.
- Suggest a color palette (e.g., 2–3 brand colors plus neutral) and font pairing if you have brand guidelines; otherwise, suggest readable defaults.
- Output format: ASCII sketch or detailed text description of sections from top to bottom, with recommended dimensions and color assignments.
- Do not suggest animations or interactive elements; this is static.
Input: [Describe your themes and the story you want to tell] Replace before pasting:
[audience: team/leadership/cross-functional stakeholders][channels: email/Slack/printed/presentation][low/medium/high][your 4–5 themes from Prompt 1][Describe your themes and the story you want to tell]
