How the past can provide context for your future plans. For our recent book, Product Roadmaps Relaunched: How to Set Direction while Embracing Uncertainty (O’Reilly), my co-authors C. Todd Lombardo, Evan Ryan, and I interviewed over 80 practicing product people. We gathered so much insight, so many great examples, and so many pithy quotes that we simply didn’t have space to include everything we really wanted to.

Nelson, program architect at IBM Studios, shared how important it is for us as product leaders to care about the spaces we work in – and how those spaces have an impact on our work.

In my last post I talked about the importance of “talking to customers.” In that post I focused especially on what you do with the market discovery knowledge you get from customers once you found it. (The “product management system of record,” I called it.). In this post I’ll be more to the point: How do you actually have these conversations?

Having a set of reliable mental models to call upon to make decisions is perhaps the most powerful thing product managers can do to improve their skills. The PM’s day-to-day job involves balancing the needs of all different groups, from marketing to engineering, and carving out a clear path for the product. They have to be able to ruthlessly prioritize and make tough decisions with incomplete information.

It starts local. A friend asks you to come to a meet-up, or to have a beer with a few friends from Silicon…(Valley, Alley, Roundabout, Beach, insert your fave here). Or you set up a coffee with a cool product manager or designer you know. They tell you about some books to read. Then you head to a conference where you see 1500 other product managers from all over the world.

A research conducted by Alpha UX found that 25% of Product Manager surveyed wished for a clearer product roadmap and strategy. This was second only to increase in salary! Research article. While salary increase is a complex subject with variables outside of our control, I believe that having a clear product roadmap and strategy is every Product Manager’s responsibility.

It’s a familiar storyline these days. Software customers have many choices and high expectations, and as such, even the most established installations could fall to a more agile competitor. It’s against that backdrop that the term “customer-obsessed” has ascended in importance. What does it mean to be customer-obsessed? As Cliff Condon of Forrester Research makes the analogy in this video , i t’s like being that really intense sports fan, and the customer is your team. “ You need to be able to r

Early in my career as a product manager, I remember being introduced to the process of user research in a way that made it seem like a monumental undertaking. A typical user research cycle looked like this: write up an agenda. draft an invite email template. find an analyst to help pull a list of user emails. send the emails. deal with email threading to schedule calls. deal with cancellations and rescheduling. write notes. juggle payments.

With clients, Amber regularly has to reign in their ideas – such as the smart fridge, which she sees leading us towards the Dystopian kitchen of the Future. Petnet.io is another example she conjures up, which is supposed to feed cats and dogs remotely.

Empathy is very important! You have to be willing and able to put yourself in the shoes of your customers. And since "your customers" is actually everyone in the organization, as well as the people who buy and evaluate your product, you have to be very flexible, and be able to hold multiple viewpoints in mind at the same time. Along with this, you need to be very flexible, mentally.

The trash heap of history is littered with the corpses of unicorns. Most companies talk a good game of customer centricity and design, but aren’t doing the hard part: user research. The Cult of the Designer. ‘Design’ as a concept is now widely discussed and debated without real understanding of what it actually means. At the core of this disconnect is business’ “Henry Ford mentality” of not asking what the customer actually wants.

Working on a product without a decent product vision resembles going into the street with eyes closed. To advance a product (or life) direction helps keep things going and makes actions meaningful. On the other hand, a Product Owner has the responsibility for leading and guiding others as well. The PO needs to keep business plans and customer requests in mind while motivating everyone to work towards a common goal.
