Dear Strategy
JULY 23, 2019
Dear Strategy: “How do I align my product strategy and product roadmap with our technology roadmap, in the face of a strong engineering organization?”. Ahh, the product roadmap… such an overused yet somehow still elusive term! Before I even touch the last part of this question about the role that engineering should or shouldn’t play with respect to roadmaps, I first want to straighten out a few definitions that, hopefully, will put this question into a much clearer light.

Join us for our webinar on July 26th, Becoming Expert: Are you the Product Leader your team needs? , where we’ll tackle what it takes to create great teams in more detail. When I think of product or market-oriented teams, I think about meetings. In fact, Product Managers are more likely to have meetings with folks outside of product management as inside it.

As a concept, Developer Experience (DX) has gained significant attention in the tech industry. It emphasizes engineers’ efficiency and satisfaction during the product development process. As product managers, we need to understand how a good DX can contribute not only to the well-being of our development teams but also to the broader objectives of product success and customer satisfaction.

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.

We all know it’s impossible for a sales team (or anyone for that matter) to predict the future. But with rigorous sales forecasting, they can actually get pretty close. Sales forecasting allows you to not only project how much revenue your team will close but also proactively influence current and future deals – by getting ahead of potential blockers, course correcting when you’re trending off target, moving into emerging markets, and more.

A nice bit of serendipity this week: this week’s guest, Josh Seiden, had his new book ( Outcomes Over Output ) recommended in last week’s episode by guest Rich Mironov. While we didn’t plan this, it’s no surprise – Josh is a respected author, speaker, trainer, and consultant, and the book is a fantastic read. As a bonus, it’s also designed to be read in an hour or so, which means that there’s an awful lot of substance with a minimum of filler.

In this talk from MTP Engage Hamburg I look at how we can become blinded to the faults of our own ideas, and how a collaborative organization culture can help to overcome this. A desire to change the world can be a key driver of success for entrepreneurs and startups, but sometimes it also has the power to cloud your judgment. When you focus on leading digital transformation, there’s a chance you may accidentally miss or forget something essential.

Enterprise interest in the technology is high, and the market is expected to gain momentum as organizations move from prototypes to actual project deployments.
