I froze for a second because it sounds fun until you realize they're asking you to basically narrate your entire PM philosophy in a creative wrapper.
Treat the question as a chance to tell a cohesive career story that highlights your product philosophy and growth. Choose 4-6 chapter titles that each represent a key lesson or theme, and briefly explain how they connect to your experience and the role at Asana.
Pro tip: Use chapter titles that are memorable and hint at a narrative arc—like a book—rather than just listing skills. This shows you can synthesize complex experiences into a compelling vision, a key product leadership skill.
Start by briefly stating the overarching theme of your career, such as 'from execution to strategy' or 'building products that empower teams.' This sets the stage for your chapters.
Choose chapter titles that each represent a distinct phase, lesson, or principle from your career. Ensure they collectively showcase a range of skills relevant to the role.
For each chapter, subtly tie the lesson to Asana's mission, product, or culture—such as collaboration, clarity, or user-centricity—to show alignment.
For each chapter, provide a one-sentence anecdote or example that demonstrates the lesson in action, keeping it concise and impactful.
End by mentioning what the next chapter would be, expressing excitement about writing it at Asana. This shows forward-thinking and enthusiasm.
