Metaphor Cards for Managers — The First Deck for Product, Project & HR Leaders

Not typical therapist’s tool

These are the first metaphorical cards designed specifically for managers — product owners, project leads, HR professionals, and team facilitators working in tech companies, startups, or enterprise teams.

Created by IT managers for IT and non-IT teams, this deck is your go-to tool for:

• 🧠 Retrospectives
• 💬 One-on-one conversations
• 🤝 Team offsites and workshops
• 🛠️ Strategy sessions
• 🔄 Organizational change and growth

💼 What Makes This Deck Unique?

Unlike traditional psychological metaphor cards, this set was built around real team roles, business challenges, and modern work culture. Every image is crafted to spark associations with:

• Team dynamics and role conflicts
• Communication breakdowns
• Process inefficiencies
• Leadership challenges
• Product and delivery bottlenecks
• Startups, scale-ups, and corporate realities

Whether you’re managing developers, marketers, salespeople, or ops — these cards speak your language.

🖥️ Digital Only

This is a digital deck. You’ll get beautifully illustrated cards in high-resolution format, ready to use:

• In online calls and screen shares
• In presentations and workshops
• Inside Miro, FigJam, or other whiteboards
• Or just shared one-on-one via messenger or email

No physical cards are shipped. You get instant access to all files.

✨ Use Freely

There’s no fixed format for how to use the cards. Shuffle them, pick one at random, show them to your team — or let individuals choose.

We include example questions to get the conversation flowing, but you’re encouraged to use your own. Let your team surprise you.

Perfect for managers who want more depth, clarity, and insight — without the corporate blah-blah.
