You used to speak in hours and days, and now it’s months and quarters. You used to obsess about innovation and being at the front of the market, and now you’re feeling bogged down shipping table-stakes features.

As product leaders we work with so many stakeholders, and we strive to include them in the product definition processes. While generally this is the right thing to do, there is one line that you don’t want to cross: letting them do the product work instead of you, or expecting them to contribute more than they can. Here is a quick guide to finding the right balance.

Proactive support is a lifesaver for busy teams looking to provide exceptional support at scale. By allowing support teams to get ahead of known problems and provide help to customers before they need to reach out, proactive support has enabled major companies to scale their support without increasing headcount, drive down inbound conversation volumes ( in some cases by up to 80% ), and maintain incredible customer satisfaction ratings.

Let me jump right in: With product analytics, customer retention isn’t just something you measure after the fact; it should be something you can learn to predict (and then improve). I get it—data and analytics sound technical and scary, something only “really smart analytical people” should touch. How could a product manager possibly dig into the data and pull up something that’s genuinely useful for activation and retention?

It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

Strategy and Product Feedback Loops. Many organizations ask teams to forecast when the team can deliver a feature. (Or finish a project.) That request often means the teams spend a ton of time forecasting, not delivering. Instead, what if managers told the team when the managers want to make a decision? The team could deliver enough to help the managers make those decisions.
