Most “product teams” just can’t seem to get the difference between MVP and something battle hardened and longer lived.

Been listening to Blitzscaling on my drive to and fro some consulting gigs the past few days and the idea central to the book is prioritizing speed over efficiency in the face of uncertainty.

[Ken Jackson @texasag]

I can’t tell you how many projects I’ve seen done MVP style that are incredibly over engineered and miss even the bare minimum MVP feature set and any semblance of quality UI/UX.

[Ken Jackson @texasag]

Reviewed two separate projects this week one in the 50-100k range that’s supposedly an MVP solution and is a total mess and another that is 500k-1M that can’t get traction for the same reason.

So tragic all the money wasted on custom app dev these days built by teams with little to no thought with the customer experience in mind. Worse is this kind of “thought” put solely in the hands of engineers. The two worlds don’t mix well...engineering and customer experience.

[Ken Jackson @texasag]

Unfortunately the biggest issue is that most of these “product teams” over index on top notch engineering skills with little regard for UI/UX skills and oftentimes are lacking these individuals entirely in their product delivery teams.

People aren't qualified for what they are trying to achieve until they are!

Over the course of my career I've experienced the 'Imposter Syndrome' first-hand and also lent ear to those who have tried to impose limits on what I can and what I can't achieve.

[Ken Jackson @texasag]

The important takeaway, for me at least, is to try to be more positive internally, to surround myself with people who inspire and lift me up, to enjoy the journey, and to never give up!
