Digital transformation impacts almost everything, so the demand for product management continues to increase – every day. When I started in product management in the mid-1980s, most product managers were hired to work in traditional B2C businesses, which is where the idea of product management originated.

I often like to frame product development as 3 buckets?—?Past, Present and Future. Past: What are the things we have shipped previously and how are they performing? Are our experiments achieving what we hoped they would? Present: What is the current sprint or work we should be doing today? What have we achieved this sprint and how is our product health looking right now?

Have you ever considered that product adoption is a lot like physics? Let me explain. We’ve all heard that “object in motion stays in motion,” and it’s an assumption we unknowingly apply to onboarding. We think that the inertia that got a user started on a free trial or new account will keep them going, but unfortunately, it isn’t that simple. You see, every new user can experience roadblocks during onboarding that slow them down.

We’ve talked about facilitating with many personality types , but we’ve saved the best for last. Of all the personalities you can work within a facilitation environment, this personality is perhaps the toughest to deal with.

Product teams must not only create an amazing product, they also need to set the stage for the product getting the awareness it requires for trial and user adoption. If a new feature or product never gets used, it doesn’t matter how awesome it is… it’s gathering the same dust as every less great product on the market. To avoid an unsuccessful launch and weak usage, product teams and their product marketing counterparts must be in lockstep.

If we’re being honest, it is very difficult to create a culture that values data. I frequently see leadership teams purchase analytics software hoping that this new access will make everyone excited to use data regularly. Unfortunately, we have that good ole phrase, “you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.”. If employees are not used to looking at quantitative information before making a decision, then they’ll probably be overwhelmed when you just suddenly give them access to
