Product manager is an unfair role. So work unfairly.
- Product management is an unfair role, but with the right productivity tactics, PMs can thrive even in today’s flatter tech industry.
- To work more efficiently, try getting out of tasks before they reach your to-do list by completing action items live during meetings.
- Use Loom or Slack video clips to communicate high-bandwidth concepts, such as decisions, collaborations, and communication.
- To create boundaries with Slack and avoid digital Whac-A-Mole, implement Slack rituals, and norms.
- Create a self-reliant team by empowering team members to develop their expertise and encourage them to think like PMs.
- Product scrapbooking can be highly beneficial in saving customer insights and ideas way in advance for future projects.
- AI tools and productivity systems can help PMs achieve tremendous leverage and impact beyond what many traditionally believe ICs can accomplish.
- PMs who build their own systems, methodologies, and tools that work for them, not the other way around, will lead successful teams and companies.
- Great PMs will work "unfairly" today to drive successful outcomes and ensure their well-being where fairness is unlikely.
- To get more done with fewer resources and manage multiple teams while staying hands-on, PMs should start working on building a "system" that works for them.
