We’ve observed newly motivated teams running landing pages or interviews, only to ignore the riskiest assumptions in their strategy. While testing can be a powerful tool, you’ll need to focus your teams’ experimentation efforts on high risk areas.

Testing in production is becoming more and more common across tech. The most significant benefit is knowing that your features work in production before your users have access. With feature flags, you can safely deploy your code to production targeting only internal teammates, test the functionality, validate design and performance, fix any bugs or defects, and then turn the feature flag on and allow your users to access it already knowing that it works in production.

As a business grows, most support leaders will be challenged to answer this seemingly trick question: can you provide a best-in-class customer experience…but at a lower cost? Not long ago, answering this question meant veering in one of two directions. If you said “no,” you had to find a way to justify having really happy customers at an equally high cost.

Why product management interviews don’t filter for real product skills. Interviews for product management jobs select for smart people, but not good product managers. Almost all PM interviews ask the candidate to walk through a product case. This typically means talking through a hypothetical situation in which they improve an existing product, or design a new one.

If you’re a product manager or part of a startup, you’ve likely heard about the Minimum Viable Product concept for getting products to market faster. In my opinion, the definition of an MVP is often misunderstood, and I’ve seen entrepreneurs and product teams misinterpret it with unfortunate results. Those that take the concept of “minimum” face value run the risk of releasing a thin set of features that may get their product to market quickly, yet deliver a poor customer experience and ultimate

We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
