@MatthewBerman @bot Interested!

@ManusAI — could you please review my account and honor the full 1-year free subscription as advertised? Happy to share my email/account details privately.
@lennysan — any chance you can flag this for the Manus team? Would love to see the promo actually deliver what was promised.
Thanks in advance 🙏 #LennyNewsletter #ManusAI

Hey @ManusAI team (and @lennysan),
As a paid Lenny’s Newsletter subscriber I was excited to claim the 1-year free Manus subscription you promoted through Lenny’s Product Pass.
I used the discount code exactly as instructed… but it only gave me one month and then charged me for month 2. 😕

[Shawn Wesley @shawnwesley76]

This feels unfair. A simple UI/selection mistake during signup shouldn’t void an entire year of the advertised free access — especially when the code is now marked “used forever.”
I’m a fan of the partnership and want to keep using Manus, but this doesn’t feel like the experience Lenny’s community was promised.

7/ The uncomfortable truth:
80% of AI problems are actually "operating model" problems.

If you're stuck, stop looking for a better model and start looking at your strategy, people, and data readiness.

[Shawn Wesley @shawnwesley76]

Most AI projects don’t fail because the model is "bad." They fail because the organization isn't ready for it to be "good."

6/ The Scale Gap.
Pilots are easy. Production is hard. Integration, security, and cost monitoring can’t be "Phase 2" tasks. That’s how you end up in a multi-quarter scaling stall.

The new PMBOK framework is confusing.
So I visualized it.
PMBOK® 8th Edition just made a massive shift:

7 Performance Domains (not 10 Knowledge Areas)
40 evolved processes (down from 49)
AI & Sustainability now baked in

Here's the problem 🧵

[Shawn Wesley @shawnwesley76]

Made it for myself originally, but figured other PMs might find it useful too.
No download. No signup. Just explore.

The question is no longer "Should we adopt AI?" It is "How fast can we scale?" Use these 6 pillars as your lens to organize and act on the opportunity.

[Shawn Wesley @shawnwesley76]

Generative AI feels infinite, but it's actually finite. After analyzing markets and industries, we discovered that 95% of all real-world AI implementations map to exactly 6 core categories. Stop drowning in tools. Start building pillars. 🧵👇
