“Work backwards from the narrative.” That's the key to not shipping the org chart. Here's Sanchan (ex-head of product at Airbnb) on how narrative-led product development works: 1. Create a narrative of what you want the customer to experience and feel 2. Challenge each team to work together to deliver the narrative 3.
