Chat apps, project management tools, and other collaborative software are all common ways that global teams interface across offices. In 2019, it’s great to have so many options, however, these means of communication are not the only keys to creating and maintaining culture — international or not. Fostering a positive work environment, giving and receiving constructive feedback, and consistently setting expectations/following through with them are just a few of the many other important fac

Four out of five B2B companies expect to compete based on CX alone. But will they actually? For most of them, the answer is no. It should come at no surprise that compared to B2C, B2B lags in customer experience (CX). Increased customer expectations, especially when it comes to recurring revenue , mean that B2B companies can’t just drag and drop B2C CX strategies—even mid-touch customers are far too complex and spend far too much in ARR for that to work.

Do you need a quick way to check and share project status? Use an extended Kanban board for planning and status. You’ll be more organized and always ready with project status. There are two approaches to delivering stories to your product team: pull and push. Typically, product managers and executives “push” more and more requests to the developers.

When it comes to artificial intelligence (AI), a common misconception I see in the tech industry, especially in Support organizations, is that AI is a way to reduce headcount and cut costs. I believe that is the wrong conversation to be having when it comes to AI in Support Services. The right conversation to have should be about examining how the prevalence of AI and machine learning will enhance and evolve the employee experience.

We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.

“We are a data-driven company”. You’ll travel far and wide before you find a tech startup that doesn’t pride itself on this claim. It’s become a tech staple – alongside free beer on Fridays, table football, and all the fruit you could dream of. And, while the logic behind a data-driven approach is undeniable, too often the expectations that come with it aren’t met.

Ask a room full of agile product managers what comes out of a sprint planning meeting, and most will list two things. The sprint goal: a written summary of what the team expects to complete during the next sprint. The sprint backlog: a list of items pulled from the product backlog that the team agrees to work on. But there’s a third thing that comes out of many sprint planning sessions: disagreement.

What is a customer? It’s a word I’ve typed so often in my job here at Gainsight I find myself accidentally typing it on autopilot half the time I type any word that starts with the letter “c.” It’s probably the most used noun on our website and blog, ahead of “outcomes” and “success.” But everyone knows what a customer is, obviously.

Over the last fifteen years, I have noticed a pattern. As I have worked with companies, departments, and teams to help them make more data-informed decisions, I have noticed that they usually fall into one of three categories: They fully integrate evidence-based decision-making into how they work. They aspire to be in the first group, but have yet to experience that enlightened and elusive state of full integration (they are still building the muscle).
