Uncovering the Unspoken
summary
Claims that most features are used by less than 10% of customers, that competitor features rarely drive switching, and that shipping the top-requested item rarely increases retention. Shows concrete interview moves: ask tell me about the last time and probe workflows, use yes and to avoid arguing, and swap surveys for open-ended stories like “what would you tell a new teammate.” Reveals surprising value in tiny fixes (save 5 seconds, eliminate daily backtracks) versus building unused features.
