We're excited to have you too, Teresa! twitter.com/ttorres/status…

I think this sentiment is shared by most of the PMs who came out to #ProductTank last night! twitter.com/shiyuanis/stat…

At #producttankPDX, @ttorres shares the future of product management, and the skills that will be required

A PM reading list from @ttores: Decisive, Thinking Fast and Slow

Wise words from @ttorres - "You can't leave your career to the hands of people who don't know what you should be doing" #ProductTank

"I always hear this quote - product management is different everyone, but maybe this is why we suck at product?" - @ttorres #ProductTank

@ttores is next up! Awesome knowledge about to be dropped. #ProductTank

"Think about whether or not your hypothesis is true by trying to confirm that the inverse is false" - @Laurex #ProductTank

"Avoid tracking things you can't actually take action on" - @laurex #ProductTank

MVP is an essential tool for PMs because it helps prevent the sunk cost bias, combats narrow framing, and prepares you to be wrong - @Laurex

"A strategy to keep yourself from suffering the effects of cognitive bias - pre-mortem. What happens if we succeed or fail?" @Laurex

We have cognitive bias when our lizard brain is making decisions - @laurex #ProductTank

@laurex giving us a brief history of cognitive psychology and the birth of lean product management! #ProductTank

Getting started @vacasarentals for our summer @ProductTankPDX! @laurex speaking first! #ProductTank

From today's #ProductTank PDX "would you actually give this product to someone to use?"

"Ask how you can make your customers amazing" via @arosic. Thats the "minimum loveable product" #ProductTank
