Psychological safety has recently become one of the buzzwords in many workplaces. Many leaders might understand its importance but they often misunderstand what exactly it means and how to establish it.

Creating a product strategy is almost never a matter of answering a few simple questions and figuring it out. Moreover, it’s not like there is a right answer that is objectively true (and even if there was, you wouldn’t be able to know it). Sounds confusing? It is. But here are quick methods to take you out of the talking and into action. Photo by Cup of Couple from Pexels W. is the CPO of a startup in transition.

We talk a lot about empowered or self-organizing teams in the agile community. However, I don't see too many self-organizing or empowered teams at my clients. Not because my clients are stupid—far from it. Everyone does the best job they know how to do. However, every manager's micromanagement pervades all levels. Instead of talking about empowerment, let's discuss how we trust teams and people to do their best job.

I'm struggling to write several posts and I realized I need to define my terms. I keep seeing managers confuse the strategic and tactical. That leads to large and unchangeable roadmaps and a lot of emphasis on predictability. I don't know how to offer the level of predictability they want for large and unchanging work. Worse, many of these managers also want business agility.
