Your #Product Trio is your strong starting line-up for your #productdiscovery A-game, but what if one of them are away?

Try substituting with someone on your bench (#stakeholders)! After all, they are part of your team and talk customers all the time.

6/ Whether it be a Miro Board, a document in the style of Amazon's 6-pager memo, or a longer strategy deck, match your style to your audiences needs.

Check out some ways you can craft effective product strategy narrative per component, in my blog post:

So it's deep in Q4, and you are the proud owner of your 2024 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲.

But what exactly is 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲? How do you craft it without experiencing analysis paralysis or 𝒃𝒐𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒐𝒄𝒆𝒂𝒏?

5/ 𝐒𝐨 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐠𝐨𝐚𝐥𝐬?

I argue this: craft a "sufficient" strategy artefact (not overly exhaustive) matching your audience's needs.

Gotta love a good mind map! Product leadership is hard to explain in 'lamens terms', but the Product Leader Map here by @product_dave definitely helps!

[Mind the Product @MindtheProduct]

Any product leader will tell you that their job is tough and we're not going to argue! Instead, we'll let product leader @product_dave introduce the Product Leader Map - a way to set product leaders up for success. https://t.co/nDZN49kKws

A little-known fact: in any megacorp’s google docs repository, there are literally 1000s of private docs which were created by PMs, EMs, PM Directors, Eng Directors to debate, pressure-test, and meticulously wordsmith their reply to a casual product question email’ed by the CEO.

@EdgeWhyte Great to see the demand though. Looks like future brands can adopt the same approach in their campaigns!

@bt_uk If you rotate your logo clockwise 90 degrees, what emoji do you see?

@kapehe_ok Parents bought us a x286 with barely anything on it but DOS and Windows.

I found solitaire and my mind was blown. I told myself: whatever I do in future, I needed to create something like this, to bring joy to others.

I'm now a Product VP of a consumer tech scale-up! Dream big!
