Product managers wear many hats, but one of the most uncomfortable ones they’re forced to occasionally don is that of the product vision “Gatekeeper.” This particular aspect of product management requires PMs to do what most people find uncomfortable… say “no.”. Of course, product managers say ‘no” all the time, but it’s usually to bad ideas or things requiring resources that are simply unavailable.

By Ellen Gottesdiener – I usually find a diversity of opinion when I ask anyone within an organization what their products are. This is true for product companies whose primary source of revenue is their product and for companies who use products internally to run their business.

Digital transformation impacts almost everything, so the demand for product management continues to increase – every day. When I started in product management in the mid-1980s, most product managers were hired to work in traditional B2C businesses, which is where the idea of product management originated. Modern product management started in 1931 with a memo written by Neil H.

What’s the fundamental difference between product discovery and delivery or execution? The degree of uncertainty. The degree of uncertainty should determine whether you need to run product discovery or whether you can begin to deliver a solution to your customer.

Have you ever considered that product adoption is a lot like physics? Let me explain. We’ve all heard that “object in motion stays in motion,” and it’s an assumption we unknowingly apply to onboarding. We think that the inertia that got a user started on a free trial or new account will keep them going, but unfortunately, it isn’t that simple. You see, every new user can experience roadblocks during onboarding that slow them down.

Suddenly, you were able to understand high-level user trends, like attribution and referral sources, faster and more accurately than ever before. Traditional analytics tools like Google Analytics are accessible but limited to counting page views and clicks, while more sophisticated tools like Adobe come with a steep learning curve which causes teams to move slowly from data bottlenecks and long analys

Product managers will encounter many forks on the road to growth and product success. Those forks always require answering difficult questions. For an early-stage company or new product, the question might be, How will we prioritize features before we have customers? Growing companies will ask, Is it time to scale up our product team ? At some point later in your product’s evolution, you might face another tricky question.

How much impact can one tiny, little feature on a webpage really have? A whole lot, as it turns out. Through A/B testing, hotel booking site arenaturist.com found that a vertical form (vs. a horizontal form) had a huge impact on their users, and their conversion rates… Horizontal form. VS. Vertical form. Their aim was to increase submissions on their forms, and by making this small change they certainly managed it – by a huge 52%.

Let’s hop in the wayback machine and travel back to summer 2014: The Amazon Fire Phone was released to much hype, yet 14 months later the company stopped production and discontinued sales shortly thereafter. While there are many missteps that might explain this product failure, I am sure the team behind the Fire Phone had a fantastic product roadmap.

As I’m writing this article, there are 2,687,780 mobile apps available in the Google Play store, and there were 2.2M mobile apps in the Apple App Store as of February 2019. Consumers have lots of choices when it comes to picking a mobile application! So, as a product manager for a mobile application, how on earth can you build an application that stands a chance of becoming a well-used, frequently purchased application, let alone rise to the level of “top 10?”.

Clear guiding principles are the best way to scale a team while keeping them aligned. Without a set of principles, organizations begin to fracture. One team heavily believes in Big Design Up Front , another follows Lean start-up , a third tries to instil PRINCE-2 , and before you know it your process is a patchwork quilt of all sorts of conflicting ways to build software.

What makes a great product decision? The answer to this question is like the Holy Grail of product management: it promises success and prosperity but no clear evidence that it exists. In this post I examine the way I think about the path: what has worked for me and helped me grow as a product manager and decision maker. Let’s go back 50 years. The US is actively involved in the Space Race with the Soviet Union, and NASA starts an ambitious project: developing a spacecraft to land on the Moon.

The path to success in product management is not a straight line. PMs have diverse backgrounds, ambiguous responsibilities, and varied definitions of what their role includes. “Product” isn’t a major that can be studied in school, the role looks vastly different across industries, and many product managers don’t begin their careers in the field until they’ve amassed experience in other areas.
