Two horrible tales to tuck your self into mattress on a darkish and stormy night time.
Product Administration isn’t only a matter of MVP, PMF, ROI, NPS, MRR, and ARR. It’s a hell of much more tough.
Individuals’s cash, jobs, egos, and careers are on the road together with your selections, which might result in horror-show situations.
These moments are those that hold me up at night time, respiration closely and nervously sweating until daybreak’s mild. They’re the moments the place individuals’s worst selves crawl shrieking into the sunshine. They’re the place the actual product administration occurs.
On this terror story, our firm was a floundering ship attempting to navigate a slender cross with no roadmap, pilot, and gasoline for the engines.
And by that I imply we misplaced our funding, we fired our head of product, half the workers went overboard, a serious buyer deserted ship, and our CEO was a spineless Steve-Jobs wannabe who couldn’t handle himself out of a paper bag.
