I'm thankful to the Product-Led Alliance for inviting me to participate in a panel discussion on a topic close to my heart - Leveraging analytics to drive Product success. The event exceeded my expectations! I was able to connect with and learn from fellow Product Operations leaders and share insights from my work at Collibra, the birthplace of Data Intelligence. Key themes from our discussions: 👤 Identity: Defining Product Operations Product Operations (POPS) tends to fill the most apparent gaps in their organizations, which is natural but risky. It's essential to clearly define and align the mission of the POPS team with others. 🔀 Process: Balancing Principles and Procedures Inspired by Hugo Froes's idea of "Principle over Process," I see a parallel to James Clear's habit framework: Outcomes are straightforward but fleeting, Processes are challenging but fragile, Identity is the most difficult yet enduring. Process shouldn't compensate for a lack of clear identity or principles. 📊 Measurement: Assessing Success While tracking adherence to principles, processes, and tools is valuable, the most meaningful metrics align with Product Outcomes. Though harder to measure, being honest, intentional, and upfront about these metrics is the best path to success. Looking forward to future interations!

In this insightful session, Avnish Malik, Sr. Director of Engineering at G-P, shares his expertise on how to scale businesses for global growth. Drawing from his extensive experience, Avnish outlines the key strategies and challenges involved in...

Learn how organizations can successfully build a distributed mindset. https://lnkd.in/eyxMw6wD Even for experienced teams, shifting to distributed systems thinking can be a challenge. But with the right technologies and methodologies, teams can rapidly overcome the learning curve and start building more resilient solutions. In this talk from Software Engineer Megan Janes, learn how their team built a self-hosted CockroachDB cluster distributed across multiple regions, successfully shifted a team towards a distributed mindset, and why “But we won’t be able to find anyone who knows about CockroachDB?!?” is no longer a worry.

A survey of 500 engineering leaders highlights the importance of feature management and experimentation tools for the success of software teams as the practice matures. Notably, engineering teams often struggle without the right tools. Only 1 in 6 reported success without capabilities to monitor system performance and user behavior at the feature level.

Less than 48 hours left before we open the doors of Elevate 2024! 🚨 Like last year, we’re both ecstatic and stressed, hoping we won’t get many no-shows or last-minute cancellations, that people will enjoy the talks, workshops, and roundtables, that we won’t have any issues logistics-wise, etc. What we’re sure about though, is the quality of our lineup, including: - Stripe’s CTO - GitLab’s CTO - SoFi’s CTO - HackerRank’s CEO - Employ’s CTO - Google Store’s CTO - CircleCI’s CTO - LiveRamp’s CTO - Coda’s Head of Engineering - Gusto’s Former Head of Engineering - Slack’s SVP of Engineering, Platform And just so many more it can’t fit this post! Looking forward to meeting all of you there. Meanwhile, you can still check the planning and register to workshops and roundtables, directly on our website: 👉 https://lnkd.in/gg79gan

🛠 Our survey of 500 engineering leaders underscores the critical role of feature management and experimentation tools in helping software teams succeed within the maturing practice. 🙅♀️ However, engineering teams are not succeeding without the right tools in place. Specifically, only 1 in 6 say they were successful without the ability to monitor system performance and user behavior at the feature level. 🔍 Learn what else the survey uncovered and start your journey toward safer, more effective feature management and experimentation: https://lnkd.in/d6SjXKvw #SoftwareEngineering #DevOps 🚀
