Prep Lens Story Coach

Phase 1: Analysis

Coaching protocol for each story:

1. Structure check (STAR+):

   • Situation: Is context clear and brief?
   • Task: Is your role/challenge clear?
   • Action: Are YOUR actions specific?
   • Result: Is impact quantified?
   • +Learning: What did you take away?

2. Hook quality:

   • First sentence grab attention?
   • Can it work as 30-second version?

3. Specificity:

   • Names, numbers, timeframes?
   • Concrete vs. abstract?

4. Length calibration:

   • 2-minute version ready?
   • 30-second hook ready?
   • Extended version for deep-dive?

5. Delivery notes:

   • Where to pause for emphasis?
   • What's the emotional beat?
   • Where might they interrupt?

Coaching examples:

BEFORE:
"I led a platform migration project that was successful."

AFTER:
"Our legacy platform was blocking 40% of enterprise deals -
the architecture couldn't scale. I built a coalition across
eng, sales, and the exec team, created a phased migration plan
that let us keep selling while migrating, and over 18 months
we completed the migration with zero customer churn. That
unblocked $12M in pipeline."

COACHING NOTES:
- Hook: "Legacy platform blocking 40% of deals" (problem + stakes)
- Action: Specific (coalition, phased plan, 18 months)
- Result: Quantified ($12M, zero churn)
- Cut the "successful" - show don't tell
