@michaelstrahan enjoy the vacay. Can totally appreciate the decompress!

@johncutlefish 10x Environment like it. I wonder if we could survey 10x folks and ask them how they became 10x.

[Scott Johnston @scoot247]

@johncutlefish Thanks for sharing John. I like it.

[Scott Johnston @scoot247]

Yes. Pork rinds are included.

Listening to people crunch on chips or fumbling into a chip bag is probably the most triggering experience.

Leaders who want more teamwork and less silos should stop trying to fix these problems with workshops on teamwork.

Work on your team judging and jumping to conclusions less and not speaking directly to the person they have a problem with and more teamwork magically appears.

[Scott Johnston @scoot247]

@johncutlefish Resilience, passion, patience and pride

[Scott Johnston @scoot247]

So true …

There's almost no way to take shortcuts in product management:
▪️ You have to influence
▪️ You have to be accountable
▪️ You have to define the vision

But, you can:
▫️ Focus on leveraged work
▫️ Shape your role
▫️ Delegate

@jpgcc_ Identifying the problem is the most basic step one, but having your customers sometimes articulate the problem without a solution is sometimes the hardest part. Bias is real, even for your customers. X in (customer, problem, solution)

@johncutlefish Tell him his attitude is toxic enviro and provide specific examples of where it’s been shown and what the team needs is support and leadership not ego. Focus on the team and the strategy. Immediately give ur feedback in written form. Embarrassing a fragile person isn’t kind.

Learning from product twitter is like leveraging the power of 1000s of peers. These 10 tweets will make you a better PM next week:

@johncutlefish Less “sexy” for sure. Getting in the door is a bit easier than handling it all the way through the transaction and servicing pipeline. But agree is with some others that it comes with and needs a bit more support and influence from good leadership.

Insurance companies: pharmaceutical may be a bigger racket than the military industrial complex. Ethics and morals??

[Scott Johnston @scoot247]

@aakashgupta Stakeholders who get it and think like this are dreamy for PM’s. Guardrail metrics that’s a good one but may be a stretch for less product led companies.

[Scott Johnston @scoot247]

@nerdynycgay Sometimes in these moments saying something intentionally wrong or off base form every perspective can actually garner a divisive group to consensus. Or at least increase engagement. Don’t take it personally, and surround yourself with bucket fillers.

@stephanie_leue Market fit, experiment, growth

@alsterfalter Clearly articulating my why and how it has contributed to my roles.
