Shipped this week
Everything that I've shipped (aka created) since the last edition.
Hi there,
I hope your annual plans and roadmaps for 2024 are shaping up well!
As we move into November, I'm excited to announce the launch of my new course on November 20th. It's designed to help all product managers truly excel at product management. (Check it out here and get $50 OFF)
Also, I've been working on an in-depth guide that finally answers the question: What is product management?
I strongly feel that the role is often misunderstood even today. Many product managers and leaders focus on a checklist of tasks, rather than the essence of product management.
In this guide, I break product management into the 4 most basic (yet critical) phases:
- Planning
- Alignment
- Execution
- Measuring and Improving
Each phase has a few deliverables and outcomes. And the product manager's responsibility is to ensure that the deliverables are of high quality and delivered on time.
Great PMs spend time understanding the essence, need, and nuances of each phase and deliverable. Then, they create action items. which help them do the job. Mediocre PMs just keep going through the motions without understanding why they're doing what they're doing.
Product Management simplified
Over the last 4-5 months, I have created multiple guides that represent a simplified version of otherwise complicated topics. And all of these topics will be covered in my upcoming course
