Acing the Product Management Interview – What They Don’t Tell you

Mind the Product

Automate Habits

The Product Coalition

I love this story so much: The brilliance of the cash register was that it automated ethical behavior by making stealing practically impossible. Rather than trying to change the motivations of his employees, Patterson used technology to make the preferred behavior automatic.
