Each week I scour articles, wading through the dogs, and bringing you the best insights to help product managers and innovators be heroes. Just for fun – Conan, the product manager, introduces the Apple “AirBag” – innovation no one needs.

Article: Behind Every Great Product. When I first decided to start The Silicon Valley Product Group, I had just left eBay and had some very strong opinions about what makes great product teams, and great product cultures, and while there were more than a few important thinkers and leaders on these topics, one area that I felt was under-represented was the role of product management.

Do you know how to prepare a bowl of cereal? Image Credit: musicfanatic29. I’ve got a question for you. If I asked you to prepare a bowl of cereal, would you know how to do it? I’m willing to bet that you scoff at this question: everyone knows how to do this. You get the cereal out, get the milk out, get a bowl and a spoon, put the cereal in the bowl, pour some milk on top of it and then you’re done.
