#EricBerlow youtu.be/UB2iYzKeej8 #Simplicity often lies on the other side of complexity. More you can zoom out and embrace #complexity the better chance you have to zoom in on simple details that matter most #systems #prodmgmt
hbr.org/2015/05/the-first-qu… To test your strategy before committing to it, ask: Is the opposite stupid on its face? Have most of my competitors made the same choice as me? If the answers are “yes,” you have more work to do to have a smart strategy rather than just a non-stupid one.

Leadership is not about having all the answers, it's about asking the right questions. As a product leader, you need to be curious, open-minded, and willing to challenge assumptions. #Leadership #ProductManagement

Despite encouraging lab and animal studies on Omicron's potential reduced pathogenicity, there's still plenty to worry about, especially in the US
—70 million people unvaccinated, including children
—the immunocompromised (>3%), even w/ 3-doses
—the unknowns re: #LongCovid

Why people with prior Covid, not vaccinated, are vulnerable to Omicron
"the neutralization titers against Omicron were 15.8- and 4.4-fold lower than those against {ancestral strain]"

#ProdMgmtDailyTip 353: Invest in "behind-the-scenes" systems.
Don't just prioritize new customer-facing functionality. Inward-facing systems supporting products (e.g. reporting, finance) need ongoing upgrades too; otherwise innovation speed is hampered and CX suffers.

#ProdMgmtDailyTip 340: Better to miss your goal and know why vs. meet it but not be sure how.
If you reach an objective- revenue, # of customers, etc.- but aren't sure how, you're unlikely to be able to replicate it.
If you miss but know why at least you can correct.

In consensus cultures, arguments are attacks on sacred beliefs. People take offense at dissent and dismiss those who dare to disagree.
In learning cultures, arguments are tools to sharpen ideas. People invite dissent to enrich their thinking and agree to keep disagreeing.

Expressing doubt doesn't always mean you lack confidence. It might be that you see nuance.
The presence of certainty can signal the absence of complexity. Conviction can crowd out careful consideration.
The person who talks tentatively has often done the deepest reflection.

#ProdMgmtDailyTip 299: Have a plan to measure enhancements to determine success.
Choosing the right metrics to evaluate the success of product enhancements is important.
Just as important - making sure you can actually collect the data you need for those metrics.

#ProdMgmtDailyTip 293: Construct demos around customer scenarios, not features.
Product demos (recorded or live) shouldn't be you describing each feature in your product. Instead, take a typical customer use case and show how the product would be used to address it.

#ProdMgmtDailyTip 267: Ensure all team members interact with customers first-hand.
Summarizing market research is great but no substitute for direct interactions w/customers.
#Prodmgmt must make sure dev/eng, design, QA, and others talk with/listen to customers personally.
