The four heights
The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

Execute — do the immediate task
+We need to co-author this investor deck with Sam, Aisha and Marcus for the board meeting on Thursday. Keep each slide editable, tag the section owners on the title slide, and make sure version history is visible so I can restore yesterday’s copy if Sam’s edits break the financials. Deliver a single file by Wednesday noon and tell me if any slides become locked during collaboration.

Improve — make it easier to accept
+Before I invite the team to edit the sales deck, surface where multiple people will touch the same slides: mark potential edit conflicts on slides 6–9, move the final financials to a separate section, and add a short contributor guide on slide 2 that says who updates which chart. Flag anything likely to break layout when someone else pastes an image.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment
+I just shared the deck and Sam immediately uploaded a new slide that shifted layout
Sam uploaded a slide that shifted the layout and now my slide master looks inconsistent. I need to keep his content but avoid breaking the template before the board review. What likely caused the shift and what’s the safest sequence to fix it without losing his wording or the version I had Friday?

Become — change the pattern
+We repeatedly fight over the same slides in last-minute edits
Every quarter we waste hours reconciling competing edits on the same slides and fixing broken layouts after someone else pastes screenshots. Which habitual changes would stop this — for example, a contributor guide, locked master slides, or a single editor for visuals — and which change will reduce our rework fastest?

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
