@chamath Is this trend driven by an adoption of AI in coding? Junior roles being replaced by AI 🤔

One way to slow roll AI adoption in software development is to not hire the people who natively use AI in software development.

Please stop using hashtags. The system doesn’t need them anymore and they look ugly.

@JustAnotherPM Can relate - saying NO is so important, but impossible if you don't know your users or business goals
English
Me as a PM 2014
- clueless about users
- clueless about business goals
- overwhelmed
- unclear about impact
- do whatever told by "seniors"
Me as a PM 2023:
- know my users well
- know my business's why
- only do what adds value to both
- delegate
- say NO

@JustAnotherPM Is this an opportunity for another PM venn diagram?!

If your calendar is empty, You're either a great product manager.
Or you are not doing enough.
You know which one you are.

The product death cycle is a terrible trap.
Many PMs forget about the "Why" and become waiters.
To please everyone, a typical waiter collects and waterfalls all "feature requirements" to the team. 🧵

In fact, I felt I dodged a bullet there. I'm glad the next interview would be led by a woman.
Imagine the interviews were all led by men, and we'd end up hiring this candidate into a team with several women...
English
The Software Engineer I interviewed last Friday messaged me to drop from the process.
He refuses to work with women.

Love the pre-mortem @carlvellotti !

Every PM knows the classic documents: 1-pagers, PRDs, user story maps. But there are a ton of other kinds that can help radically clarify ideas. Here are 6 of my favorites + when and how to do them. Try them out to make better product decisions (and impress your boss).

I really like the SCQA framework!
Paweł Huryn@PawelHuryn
Every PM needs to give an exec presentation sometimes. But many suck at it, wasting the chance to be noticed. 3 secrets to turn your presentation into a clear, compelling story: 🧵 1. Use the SCQA Framework 2. Use the Pyramid Principle 3. End with a brief summary Now in detail: 1. Use the SCQA Framework The SCQA Framework is used by the biggest consulting companies like McKinsey & Company or PwC. The acronym stands for: - Situation: Describe the current situation and set the context for your presentation, e.g., "Meta has 51.19% of the social commerce market share." - Complication: Clearly state the problems and challenges in that situation, e.g., "The new generation prefers TikTok, and the company's growth slows down." Explain why the presentation is needed. - Question: Explain what problem you are trying to solve, e.g., "How we can get back on the path of rapid growth." - Answer: Provide the answer, which will be the main part of your presentation, e.g., "We should invest in the metaverse" (I don't believe that, it's just an example). Before providing an answer, tell your audience why they should care. Set the context for what you are going to say. It's essential. Now you have their attention, and they can understand your message easily. - 2. Use the Pyramid Principle to structure the Answer Start by providing the answer \ main idea. Support it with additional details and information. For example, each line below can be a separate slide: Slide: We should invest in the metaverse Slide: -- We should invest in VR devices Slide: ---- VR devices details 1 Slide: ---- VR devices details 2 Slide: -- We should invest in VR apps Slide: ---- VR apps details 1 Slide: ---- VR apps details 2 This will make your answer crystal clear. - 3. End with a brief summary - Shortly restate: Situation, Complication, Question - Shortly summarize the Answer - Tell them what the next steps are (call to action) - Plan time for questions and answers - If you liked this post, pay attention to its structure: - Situation: PM needs to give an exec presentation (...) - Complication: But many suck at it (...) - Question: How to easily turn a presentation (....) - Answer: SCQA Framework and the Pyramid Principle This will make your presentation clear and compelling. Try it at the first opportunity so that you don't forget it. Hope that helps. What are your thoughts? - If you liked this tweet: 1. Follow me @PawelHuryn for more 2.

@BuildMRR @carlvellotti Same! Very handy way to align on what will and won't be done
English
@carlvellotti Great tip, Carl.
In my PRD, I always have a section that lists "In Scope" and another that lists things "Out of Scope," which seems effective.
English
PRD Pro Tip:
Add a short list of NON-requirements, or things you WON'T build.
Stakeholders have an amazing capacity to read a PRD and somehow think you're building their favorite (possibly unrelated) feature.
Overcommunicate, always.

here is GPT-4, our most capable and aligned model yet. it is available today in our API (with a waitlist) and in ChatGPT+.

it is still flawed, still limited, and it still seems more impressive on first use than it does after you spend more time with it.

Great visual guide to some recommended reading for the various areas of Product Management by @delibr delibr.com/post/visual-gu… #prodmgmt #product
English
@JustAnotherPM I think it should be proportionate to the overall downsizing. Otherwise, you're either removing Product as a function, or there isn't the bandwidth to ship
English
When mass layoffs happen, do you think product managers should be the first ones to be let go?
English
@carlvellotti I like this graph! You could argue that the decision is actually an outcome, not necessarily the PM's output, however the graph is still valid. Thanks for sharing
English
A PM's output is decisions.
But understanding how much effort to put into a decision is hard.

A minute of silence for Queen Elizabeth at the @AFL tonight before the honour of singing the Australian National Anthem. Humbled to be asked this morning to sing our anthem with so many 🤍
