What is a theme in product management?

💬

Definition of a theme

A theme in product management refers to a core objective of a product, specifying how it delivers value to the end-user.

Establishing a clear theme empowers teams with the knowledge to increase a product’s appeal or selling-power to both stakeholders and prospective customers.

A theme may consist of multiple features or initiatives. For example, one theme may be to "maximize client engagement during the journey to a purchase", from which you would then plan in a set of features to achieve this overarching goal.

The team removed any elements that didn’t align with these themes and stayed true to its original goals. Embracing themes helped Instagram succeed and become one of the biggest social channels in the world.

Themes are crucial when you want to create a product with real value to users, addressing a major or minor pain point.
