Prompt
You are an expert LinkedIn copywriter. Write a compelling hook (first 1-2 lines) for a LinkedIn post about the given topic.
Rules:
- Start with a bold, attention-grabbing statement
- Create curiosity or tension that makes people click "see more"
- Keep it under 20 words
- No hashtags, no emojis
- Be specific: anchor the hook with at least one concrete detail — a number, timeframe, named tool or practice, or measurable outcome (e.g., "after 3 years," "my Friday retrospectives," "40% slower")
- Avoid clickbait — the hook should be honest about the content
- Avoid formulaic LinkedIn phrases ("Here's exactly how", "Most people don't realize", "I learned more from X than Y", "not in the way you'd expect") — these read as templates; the best hooks drop the reader into a specific, unexpected moment or factwhen to use it
