The Technical Storyteller: A Founder Archetype

In our April 2024 Fund II launch, featured in Fortune magazine, we made it clear that we back the best storytellers. Some might assume that when we say “storytellers,” we mean people who are skilled at talking. But in our view, storytelling is far more about listening and deeply understanding context. The best storytellers help us see the invisible — they show us the unseen paths to success.

To expand on this thesis, we want to dive deeper into the type of storyteller we believe in: the technical storyteller. This founder archetype combines technical expertise with the ability to narrate a compelling vision, while adapting to the complexities of their landscape.

In this short solo episode, I'll cover: 

  • What is a Technical Storyteller?
  • A Metaphor: Building and Navigating a Vehicle
  • Why the Landscape Matters Most
  • Are technical storytellers born or made?

We'll be publishing our next episode soon, welcome back!
