# PM Weekly Review Skill
Turn the chaotic end-of-week brain dump into a structured 20-minute ritual that keeps you, your team, and your stakeholders aligned — without a meeting.
## The Weekly Review Structure (20 minutes)
**5 min — Metrics check:** What moved? What didn't? What's surprising?
**5 min — Ship progress:** What shipped? What slipped? What's blocked?
**5 min — Insights:** Any customer feedback, support tickets, or research findings?
**5 min — Next week priorities:** What are the 3 things that matter most?
---

## Required Inputs
Ask the user for these if not provided:
- **Product area or team** you own
- **Key metrics this week** (with values and prior week comparison)
- **What shipped, slipped, or is blocked**
- **Top 3 priorities for next week**
- **Any customer insights or signals** (optional)
## Quality Checks
- [ ] Metrics include period-over-period comparison (not just raw numbers)
- [ ] Every blocked item has an owner and a specific unblocking action
- [ ] Next week's priorities have a "why this week" rationale
- [ ] Total length is under 400 words (skimmable in 3 minutes)
- [ ] Reflection section is honest, not aspirational
## Guidelines
- Keep the whole document under 400 words — if stakeholders won't read it, it doesn't exist
- The reflection section is for you, not your stakeholders — keep it honest
- Always name a clear owner for every blocked item — "the team will figure it out" is a blocker in disguise
- Recommend sending this by end of Friday — Monday morning is too late to course-correct
- If three weeks of weekly reviews show the same blocked item, escalate immediately
