Spectacular & Dangerous Road on Earth- Tianmen Mountain Road, Zhangjiajie, China ( [link] ) When we talk about product management in tech, usually we don’t explicitly distinguish between B2C and B2B. For type of product, B2C and B2B is just the first layer. Inside B2C / B2B, it can still be very different.

Companies had to rethink product development to embrace Agile and DevOps. I fully believe in the concept of servant leadership. We couldn’t do any of the basic user analytics that I know my friends at B2C companies did in their sleep. CEOs need to change too. But what does a CEO need?

Although I’ve written this post in the context of replatforming a high-traffic B2C website, many of the principles can apply to other situations like apps or B2B systems. There may be a multitude of things that the leadership team wants to achieve, and each one would require a prohibitive amount of time and money with the current platform.

Likewise, dealing with B2C or B2B customers completely alters your approach to product development and improvement. On B2C you need to use a “bazooka” : bring in a lot of customers and make sure that you keep them in. In terms of methodologies, we use Agile and Scrum through which we have a discovery track. Have any comments?

Often the senior leadership team thinks they talk about strategy a lot, but the employees under them don’t understand the strategy. When I see that type of thing happening, I tell the senior leadership team to ask their CEO, “What’s your strategy?” In general, I’m a believer in agile more so than in Agile.
