I don’t really have an innovative topic that I can write a thought-provoking piece about quickly, so I want you to read this one instead. At least this one’s a little shorter, Paul. :) Here’s a fluff piece covering a few loosely intertwined… ## [The conference demo playbook is broken](https://notleo.com/the-conference-demo-playbook-is-broken/) _2025-11-24 · NOT LEO_ In Finding your AI North Star , I wrote about identifying friction and building solutions that actually matter. But I stopped short of the next problem: even when we find the right solution, we can still fail if we can’t tell the story. I’ve seen it, so have you: jargon-first. Buried value. Losing the audience in three minutes. This piece is about storytelling.

In the scramble to feel productive, organizational leaders look for the easiest fruit to squeeze, driven by the promise of juice.

I hope so, because it was at no small expense that I was able to get physical copies in my hands in time for you to experience an instant memetic response.
