The more I read, the more I realize that fiction has a way of teaching the same lessons as nonfiction, only in a better, humane way that is not like someone lecturing at you from a podium, but more like a friend sitting down for a heart-to-

The really interesting takeaway from this article for me was that product executives make many decisions based on simple intuition, industry experience, and "I've heard it worked over there." There are numerous mentions of fa
