A Flight Simulator for Office Politics

Most PMs don't get fired for bad PRDs. They get fired for bad stakeholder management.

Scenario 3 (The HiPPO War): Watch what happens when you tell a Founder "The data says no." Hand-coded branching logic that simulates real human ego.

The Gap No One Talks About

Every PM training teaches you frameworks. None prepare you for this.

@you We can't build this by Friday. The API team dropped the ball and I'm not burning out my team again. We need to talk. Now.

How The Simulator Works

Real consequences. Real learning. No real damage.

🔋

The Trust Battery System

Every choice has a cost. Your Trust Battery with each stakeholder drains or charges based on your decisions.

Push back on scope creep →+15% Engineering Trust
Promise unrealistic deadline →-25% Engineering Trust

Learn to trade-off 'Sales Happiness' for 'Engineering Stability'.

Battle-Tested Scenarios

"These aren't creative writing exercises. Every scenario has been calibrated and stress-tested by 40+ Senior Leaders, Directors, and Founders from the PM Curve Community. We didn't just ask 'Is this good?'—we asked 'Is this painful enough to be real?'"

🔥

Why Me?

"I didn't build this because I'm a 'Communication Guru.' I built this because I learned the hard way. Early in my career, I burned bridges with Engineering by prioritizing the wrong things. I spent the last few years dissecting exactly how Senior PMs handle conflict, codifying their instincts into the scenarios you play here."

Why This Works

The ECC Framework: Experience → Consequence → Calibration

🌫️

Experience

You don't just "practice" a script. You're immersed in the "Fog of War" — high-pressure contexts where the right answer isn't obvious.

Consequence

No "Wrong Answer" buzzer. You get results. David stops trusting you. The API breaks. The CEO yells. You feel the pain.

🎯

Calibration

You adjust your mental model. "In a Sales-led company, I should've said Yes. In an Eng-led company, I was right to say No."

Fail Cheaply.

Burn virtual bridges so you don't burn real ones.
