Lead on Purpose
JANUARY 29, 2018
Success depends as much on the desire of an individual as anything else. Hard work, persistence and intelligence also factor in, and depending on the endeavor, these may play a big role.

That’s right, would you offer yourself a job at your company? It’s a question every interviewer should ask themselves. No, this isn’t some theoretical mental exercise. It’s actually a powerful question to ask yourself when you’re looking to expand your team but find yourself paralyzed with options. When you are a small but growing company or team each additional hire has a disproportionately large impact.

The B2B Product Manager Magazine January 2018 is now available. We’re kicking off 2018 with a discussion on product success metrics and a viewpoint that there’s only one critical metric that’s important over the long term. If you routinely hit that one, all the others will take care of themselves. We also look at the benefit of using customer value themes to drive your sales demos and how they can improve win rates.

There are a lot of opinions on the definition of successful in product management. Is there one simple way to characterize the role of product management and what it takes to be successful? There are a thousand ways to characterize successful product management, but they all lead to one thing. When it’s all said and done, your products have to make the people who use them measurably better at what they do.

Excerpts from our conversation with The Best Product Person of 2017, Melissa Perri. Getting to Here. > What inspires you in your day-to-day work? I’m inspired by making other Product Managers awesome. As a teacher, I’m always playing with new frameworks or ways of teaching. I inspect, adapt, and learn constantly. I believe that being able to explain complex patterns and ideas in a way that is actionable for others really helps firm up your own understanding of the craft.
I Wonder The Value
JANUARY 29, 2018
Why my team members don’t do things even if they said, “Ok. I’ll do it”? When I organized an event for startup founders, this problem was raised twice. In my experience in forming a team from scratch, this always happens if we don’t care about “Ultimate Goal Check”. What is "Ultimate Goal Check”? Why it’s important? What is “Ultimate Goal Check”?

How to enter into a new product management position in a new company. Congratulations. You just landed into a new product management position. Whether it’s a VP product or a product manager, whether it’s a small or big company, you are expected to get fast into the role, and many times you are expected to do it by yourself. If you are lucky, there is someone in the company that has thought about your on-boarding, but many times especially if this is a small startup, there isn’t.

The Telerik Platform is retiring on May 10, 2018 (“retiring products that have served their purpose”). This leaves users of Telerik Analytics (formerly EQATEC Analytics) in a bit of a jam as they seek an alternative software usage analytics platform. Telerik may be retiring, but you still have work to do! Call me biased (and not so subtle), but allow me to suggest why Revulytics Usage Intelligence is the best alternative to Telerik if you are looking for an out-of-the-box solution for on-premise

Yes, they work for one of the most successful companies in the world. For over 60 years McDonalds has been synonymous with fast food. However, the world is changing and McDonalds is not changing with it. A recent study showed that only one in five millennials, a core market for McDonald’s , had ever tried a Big Mac burger.

What a buzzword, right?! Not really. Gamification in UX predates what we thought of as its beginnings. Even though the term “gamification” made its appearance in 2008, it didn’t gain popularity until 2010. It had popped into our lives long before we started to pay attention to it. “UX” falls in the same category, as Donald Norman mentioned the term “user experience” for the first time in 1993 (when he changed his title from User Interface Architect to User Experience Architect).

According to a December report by PwC , at least 438 ICOs took place in 2017, raising over $4.6 billion. And the majority of those were done by startups that did not have a product yet. Is an ICO really a smart move for pre-product startups?

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.
