Your prompt

Run a Hedgehog Concept exercise for [your company]. Ask me these questions one at a time, and push back on vague answers until they are sharp: (1) What can we be the best in the world at? (2) What drives our economic engine - the single denominator, like profit per X? (3) What are we deeply passionate about? Once all three are crisp, find the intersection: the one thing at the center of all three circles, stated in one sentence. Finally, name the 2-3 things we are currently doing that fall OUTSIDE the hedgehog and should be stopped or spun out.

Paste it into Muse or any assistant. Blank fields stay as [brackets].
