5 Scary Things for Product Managers (and How to Tackle Them) 🎃 Happy Halloween, Product Managers! 👻 As you brace for a night of spooks and thrills, let’s look into some #horrors that haunt many PMs. 1. Losing track of customer asks and needs 👻 Losing track of critical customer data can leave you in the dark about what users truly need. As Carlos Gonzalez de Villaumbrosia from Product School notes, understanding customer insights is essential to delivering a great user experience. 🔮 How to Tackle It: Chisel collects customer insights from multiple channels and centralizes them in one accessible repository, keeping your team aligned and focused on customer-driven decisions. 2. Roadmaps are not tied to Customer feedback 🎭 With feedback spread across different channels, it is likely to be missed. As Teresa Torres emphasizes, a centralized feedback system is essential to avoid this nightmare. 🔮 How to Tackle It: Chisel centralizes all #customer feedback in Idea Box and links it directly to #roadmap items, keeping teams aligned and making the customer voice a core part of the product journey. 3. Poor prioritization 🕸️ Refinement sessions often stir anxiety and tension, as Dr Bart Jaworski describes, with unclear priorities breeding confusion. To counter this, prioritization becomes essential—what Marty Cagan aptly calls “the art and science of determining what not to do.”” 🔮 How to Tackle It: Chisel showcases a fully customizable #prioritization and scoring framework to meet the unique needs of your business 4. Poor Dependency Tracking 💀 As Marcin Nowak, MBA highlights, dependency bottlenecks can disrupt product management by delaying time-to-market and stifling innovation. Effective handling of these dependencies is crucial to prevent chaos and maintain agility in the roadmap. 🔮 How to Tackle It: Chisel’s Timeline View gives a clear, digestible overview of your product’s lifecycle, showing what’s being developed now and when it will launch, so teams can stay aligned and on schedule. 5. Too much manual busywork 🕰️ Without AI, product managers risk getting bogged down in repetitive tasks and missing valuable insights. As Inbal S., Chief Product Officer at Twilio points out, AI can free PMs from manual work, allowing them to focus on high-value insights. 🔮 How to Tackle It: Chisel’s AI automates routine work, from creating PM documents to organizing feedback, freeing up PMs to focus on strategy, high-impact insights, and maximizing #productsuccess. 🎃 Don’t let product management horrors spook you this season! With Chisel’s 2-in-1 platform for roadmaps and feedback, streamline your workflows, align your team, and build products that truly resonate with your users. #ProductManagement #HappyHalloween #PMTools #ProductManagers
