Standard Prompts or Custom Workflows? Binary Business - BB-09

A VP showed me their company's AI prompt library. Forty-seven prompts. Versioned. Color-coded. You know how many people actually used them? Three. And one was the VP who made them. Everyone else built their own in secret—like speakeasies, but for productivity.

In this episode, I break down whether to standardize AI prompts across your organization or let people build custom workflows using the ABCD framework.

**What You'll Learn:**
• Why prompt libraries become digital tumbleweed on SharePoint
• The difference between template tyranny and abandonment with extra steps
• The three-bucket framework for deciding what to standardize
• Why "it'll be a team effort" means you're building a museum, not a system
• The custom-to-standard loop that actually compounds over time
• How to run this decision through the Binary Scorecard
