Product Discovery Trio? Or better: Product Discovery Dimensions!

Thankful since this day, I’m trying to establish dual track development on team level, as I’m convinced, that this is the way to build great products. As I worked … More Product Discovery Trio?

A Potpourri of Product, Organization, Team and Individual Thoughts

Focus on Learning, Context and Empowerment

May 13, 2019

Why learning is so important? The biggest waste in software development: building the wrong thing! Marty Cagan was right: half of the time or 50% the product manager is wrong with his ideas. It’s not about keeping everybody busy, it’s learning what’s the right thing. Focus your attention on that. The Proven Learning Process Learning … More Focus on Learning, Context and Empowerment

Roadmaps, Expectations and Empowerment

October 4, 2018

TL;TR Use roadmaps to discuss scope as objectives and outcomes you’d like to achieve. Don’t use roadmaps to write down features or track output. Work with themes: problems, needs and objectives. Don’t use dates in roadmaps. Use features and experiements as possible customer solutions and only track them in a plan, if really needed. Empower … More Roadmaps, Expectations and Empowerment
