Why Ruthless Prioritisation is Every PM’s Superpower!! Let’s be real—being a product manager isn’t just about big ideas and leading teams. It’s about deciding what deserves your attention right now and what can wait. This quick 4-minute read dives into why mastering ruthless prioritization is key for any PM who wants to make a real impact, especially in a world of endless Slack and Discord notifications. It’s not flashy, but it’s the kind of skill that separates the products that thrive from the ones that flop. Check it out and level up your prioritization game! #ProductManagement #Prioritization #PMTips

Week 1️⃣ 👉 Me (in a 1-2-1): What is the one thing you'd like to improve? 👉 Product Owner: chuckles at the word "one" and then obviously frustrated, goes on to list more and more things about the processes, the tools, the team and the organisation that could be improved. 👉 Me: takes notes, thinks, meets with others across the org Week 2️⃣ 👉 Me: Delivers training 👉 Me: Facilitates Ask Anything sessions Week 3️⃣ 👉 Me: Attends a couple of hours of team meetings 👉 Me: Does a couple of hours of follow up team coaching 👉 Me (in a 1-2-1): "How's it going?" 👉 Product Owner: "Things are looking good, team cohesion already feels better!" For context: - these are good people, - who are busy working hard, - but were frustrated and discouraged about their situation. In a very small amount of time I helped by: - creating a space for all the perspectives to be heard, - helping them identify the best problems to fix now, - sharing other ways things could be done, - letting them choose what would be best to do differently. - supporting them with the changes They now have hope that things can improve, and have already seen some wins. This is not the end of their journey, and they know that. I really don't want them to be busy, I want them to be effective! Seems the team wanted that too! #productmanagement, #teamwork, #training, #coaching

By paying attention to everyday situations, like family gatherings and community events, POs can learn valuable lessons for their work. The article also includes a checklist of key skills to have and suggests ways to improve. I’d love for you to read it and share your thoughts!

How can product management teams get the most value from OKRs? This weeks Product Conversations #TopicoftheWeek is OKRs. Working with a client that was struggling with delivery recently, I asked the related question "how are you using OKRs (or similar) to help track progress?" They were not using OKRs (or similar), though mentioned they were thinking about it. I know that reading "Radical Focus" by Christina Wodtke really help evolve my understanding of the value of OKRs. It has been almost 2 1/2 years since our last conversation on OKRs, so I figured it was time to dig in again. Share your thoughts on how product management teams can get the most value from OKRs, and make sure to tune in for our LinkedIn Live panel on Friday, June 21 at 12 pm ET. #productmanagement #productleadership #OKRs

This week Product Conversations is returning to OKRs for the first time in 2 1/2 years. Are you using OKRs? Are you gaining value out of OKRs? Share your take on OKRs in the below question. #productmanagement #productleadership #OKRs
