In this talk I gave at ProductTank London I share some of my personal learnings of scaling mobile teams at XING to a distributed setup with currently 8 teams who contribute in parallel to fortnightly releases of our iOS and Android apps. While some of the topics I address are specific to web-era companies most of them apply to any company that needs to move beyond a single mobile product team.

As noted in my last post , Sales and Marketing often wonder whether Engineering is sufficiently motivated and engaged. But the symptoms aren’t so obvious to the outbound (and extroverted) part of the company. While sales teams stereotypically rally around contests, talk sports and drink coffee (which is for closers)… development teams may sit silently side-by-side-side most of the day engaging in multiple Slack conversations, taking breaks for air hockey or exchanging giphys , and critiqui

Everyone wants to see the product roadmap. Sales wants to use it to drive bigger deals, engineering wants to know what is coming next to make technology decisions, and other teams want to feel like they are part of a long-term strategy that will take the organization to the next level. But the market is fickle, with an ever-changing set of priorities and needs.

After years of false starts and incremental improvements, 2016 is the year where virtual reality (VR) has finally arrived. Thanks to a combination of advancements in hardware and software, an outpouring of investment, and a massive spike in business and consumer interest, we believe that virtual reality has hit an inflection point that will propel us from the mobile era to the virtual reality/ augmented reality era.

They are the premium cable television channel that even if you subscribe to cable, if you want HBO you have to pay an additional fee to get. Back in the day, HBO was the place where you could watch recent movies before they showed up in your local Blockbuster video rental store.

Each week I scour articles, wading through the dogs, and bringing you the best insights to help product managers and innovators be heroes. Use “why does it have to be that way” questions to improve products and services. You know the type of question, like when you go to the grocery store and ask yourself “why is the wait so long to checkout?” When taken seriously, such questions help product managers and innovators think about problems differently.

At ProductTank Oslo, Tanuja Gopal showed how we can use the power of influence in our day to day work, drawing on her experience as the Director of Application and Data Services for MIT’s Sloan School of Management, and previously as a serial CIO in government organisations. While product managers have the role of being at the intersection of many functional teams, they often have little formal authority over direct resources (monetary, scheduling, team member, etc.).

What’s the single key advantage that start-ups consistently hold over big businesses? One which allows them to move faster, and change course quicker than large corporations? It isn’t talent or creativity, and it’s certainly not resources. Start-up nimbleness comes from employee empowerment – a culture where people at all levels of the organization feel free to think, behave, control, and improve their work autonomously.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.
