My Philosophy

  • Eat the Elephant

    Q: How do you eat an elephant?

    A: One bite at a time.

    In product management, we're often faced with mammoth-sized challenges that seem impossible to tackle. The secret? Break that elephant down into bite-sized, manageable chunks. By dissecting colossal projects into smaller tasks, we transform overwhelming obstacles into a series of achievable goals. This approach not only prevents team indigestion but also allows for better prioritization, clearer progress tracking, and the ability to pivot without wasting resources. The most complex products are built feature by feature, sprint by sprint. Resist the temptation to eat the elephant in one sitting. Nobody can do that and survive.

    (Don't worry, no actual elephants were harmed in the making of this metaphor.)

  • It Depends

    "It depends" - The two words that make stakeholders twitch and keep product managers employed. In the world of product, one-size-fits-all solutions are as rare as bug-free releases on the first try. To craft the truly best product strategy, we need context. Before we start sprinting towards solutions, let's make sure we're running on the right track.

    In product management, "It depends" isn't a cop-out—it's a call to dig deeper. Every product decision, from prioritizing features to choosing tech stacks, hinges on a web of factors: user needs, market trends, technical constraints, and business goals. By embracing "It depends," we commit to thorough analysis and tailored strategies that drive real value. So the next time you're tempted to jump on the latest product trend, remember: the right move always depends on your unique product puzzle.

  • What is the best product framework?

    It depends. No single framework is perfect for every scenario, so just eat the elephant one bite at a time.

    Any framework you use must align the needs of the business to the needs of the clients. Use the recipe (framework) that is best for the situation and works best with your organization.

    If I were forced to choose one framework, I prefer the Jobs to be Done framework. Work closely with clients to determine what they’re “hiring” us to do, and deliver exactly that.

  • Balance

    Yin-yang. Opposing yet complementary forces. Light / dark. Good / Evil. Agile / Waterfall (yes, sometimes complementary.) Hot / cold. Action / Stillness. When something is out of balance, the yin-yang of nature and consciousness will work to bring it back into balance.

    Agile / Waterfall? OK, that might be a stretch, but in Product Management it’s essential to maintain balance between client and business value, along with managing various (sometimes oppositional) stakeholders.

    Breathe / Exhale.
