Great thread in response to @leeloowrites’ thoughtful posts about the need for change in the UX field.

What your portfolio really tells people...

[Shreyas Doshi @shreyas]

Since time immemorial, when a CEO asks a PM at Product Review, “what do you need to 10X users/revenue?”, “what will make you go faster?”, etc the PM steadfastly responds “We need [N] more engineers”. The Eng Mgr nods approvingly.

A story thread, with some hard truths to swallow:

[Neeraj Mathur @neeraj]

Building a diverse and inclusive team requires
- looking outside your immediate network
- being flexible with secondary (and some primary) skills
- expanding your search outside your core geography
- look in places outside your comfort (go-to) zone

How many times a day do you refer to groups of people as 'guys'?

Inclusive language matters: words have the power to include, or exclude. Why not #ChooseToChallenge gendered language by using these great inclusive alternatives (courtesy the GDS Women's Network)?

A thread of resources for aspiring & new Product Managers:

(should also be useful for Eng, Design, Data Science, Mktg, Ops folks who want to get better at PM work or want to build more empathy for your PM friends ☺️)

(oh, and pls also share *your* favorite resources below)

Collaboration Tax

Getting two or more product groups at a megacorp to collaborate on creating a seamless end user experience is the hardest problem in computer science.

(I am not joking)

[Shreyas Doshi @shreyas]

If you’re a Startup trying to compete with a Megacorp—the 800-pound Gorilla in the space—you need to understand the tax inherent to being a Gorilla

And then you need to make that tax work against the Gorilla—with your product's positioning & features

Add these 10 biases to your product team's shared vocabulary

1–Confirmation Bias
2–Fundamental Attribution Error
3–Availability Heuristic
4–Plan Continuation Bias
5–Law of Triviality
6–Curse of Knowledge
7–Law of the Instrument
8–OutcomeBias
9–Bandwagon Effect
10–Bias Blind Spot

Here is a simple lesson I've learned from reading books on writing. Take a piece of your writing and control or command + F to find these words:

so
just
very
quite
really
pretty
surely
rather
in fact
actually
that said
of course

Delete them. You are now a better writer.

Zoom meetings are basically modern seances

[Jared Spool @jmspool]

It’s 2019 and I just heard a speaker tell a design audience that “there’s research that shows you only need 5-8 users to find 85% of the problems in a design.”

I pine for the day when this myth finally dies.

[Shreyas Doshi @shreyas]

Time for a meta-thread on the Product Management content I’ve posted over the past 6 months.

This one is long, but I hope it can serve as a useful & quick reference for PMs.

It has 4 sections:
1. The PM Role
2. PM Skills
3. Strategy
4. PM Leadership

Are you ready?
