Mind the Product
MAY 10, 2017
Here’s a scenario nearly everyone finds themselves in at some point in this line of work: You’re psyched about a new product or feature in the works. You’ve got requirements, design vision, and even a development timeline. You’ve got feedback from potential buyers and they love it. You’re ready to roll, and then you’re asked, “So how much money will this make?”.

Wish lists are a pain. It looks like a small request?—?at best. It comes top down, it guts your strategy, it unbalances all the hard work you put in prioritising and forces you to make difficult trade-offs. Great news: you need to validate that it’s actually useful and/or important, Less-great news: If they clearly aren’t important enough to be done, then they don’t belong on the backlog.

People are concerned about their health and it’s hurting sales of Coke Image Credit: Hanna Pritchett. When it’s hot out and you are thirsty, what do you want to drink? No, I’m not talking about a beer – let’s talk non-alcoholic drinks. Due to years and years of spending on enormous advertising campaigns, many of us instantly think of drinking a Coke when we want something cold and sweet.

Fourteen billion years ago the universe was immensely hot, dense plasma. Then, as the universe expanded after the Big Bang, the gases within it cooled. When these gases reached a temperature of around 2,700°C (billions of years before galaxies existed) protons and electrons were able to combine into hydrogen atoms, releasing energy in all directions in the form of electromagnetic radiation.

Nearly a century ago, Albert Einstein prophetically and poetically framed what remains one of our chief challenges with analytics. “Not everything that can be counted counts,” he said, “and not everything that counts can be counted.” With so much data, leveraging information that helps us ask the right questions and draw the right insight to solve business problems is a constant struggle.

Reading the Sirius Decisions 2017 Product Management Tools and Technology Study this morning , I was struck by their finding that we are on the cusp of a major shift in how product leaders manage their products. Here at productboard , we’ve witnessed the shift ourselves. Changing attitudes in just the last six months have meant more product leaders are seeking an alternative to prioritization spreadsheets, roadmap powerpoints, and user feedback spread across a variety of systems.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. 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.

In an earlier blog post of mine , we explored the concept of Relationship Equity, which is the trust that Services Delivery teams have engendered with their clients that allows them to ask the questions that salespeople can’t. They are able to uncover problems, challenges, and opportunities that customers would generally withhold from a salesperson, or even their account manager.

I’ve been thinking about the challenges of managing product teams by outcomes. Most leaders want their teams to have the autonomy to go after an outcome, but they struggle with trusting that their teams will do the right things. Most teams want that autonomy, but they struggle with communicating their progress toward an uncertain outcome. These shortcomings create a vicious cycle.

Balancing Specific and Generic Skills. To do a great job as a product manager or product owner, you require two skills sets: product-specific and generic ones. As the name suggests, product-specific capabilities are limited to a single product or product portfolio. They include a deep understanding of the users with their needs, the competition, and the market trends.
Traditional PM struggles with the complexities of platform ecosystems. B-MAP framework tackles this challenge. B-MAP goes beyond features, focusing on building, managing, adapting, and partnering to foster a thriving platform ecosystem.

“Communication” by Joan M. Mas. See below for image credit. Effective Communication is Challenging. Product managers tell me – and the people managing product managers tell me – that one of their biggest challenges is communicating with the development team. People complain about: Developers being poorly motivated, or having a bad attitude about what you want them to build.

On paper, product managers and UX teams should happily work together. Both aim to ultimately build and ship a successful product; both collect data to make necessary product decisions; and both work with development teams to bring products to fruition. The disciplines are two sides of the same coin on whom the success (or failure) of a product rests.
