#37 - Feb.2024

Happy Friday!

Here is a quick idea before you head off for the weekend:

A story without conflict, tension, or twist is a dull narrative.

[Stories](https://www.cesarrg.com/stories/) move people forward. They inspire. They create connections.

Your product needs a good story. In fact, storytelling is one of the most important skills you can develop as a Product Manager.

Is by sharing your product story that you connect with customers and stakeholders on the purpose of your product. 

It’s through stories that you share your commitment to your promise.

What is the customer’s conflict that you are promising to solve? What is the twist that your product offers that makes it different from others? What is the value proposition that your product offers to solve such conflict? 

Your story is your mission.

[It’s easier to forgive a human than a robotOne of the reasons I think AI is going to have a hard time taking over all our driving duties, our medical care, or even just our customer support interactions, is that being as good as a human isn’t good enough for a robot. They need to be computer good. That is, virtually perfect. That’s a tough bar to scale.
