Building a solid playbook is the key to turning chaos into predictability. 🔄 When you establish repeatable processes, you're streamlining operations—crafting a blueprint for success that can be replicated, scaled, and optimized. Predictability allows for sharper strategies and smarter decisions that pave the way for consistent wins. Chuck Koch 🙏 #TeamGTN #techtruth #processoptimization #strategicplanning #playbook

Stop trying to fix both time and scope. Flexibility is the key to on-time delivery. Two things you can’t fix at the same time: scope and time. One of the principles we follow with Shape Up is simple—if you fix the time, you need to vary the scope. This allows teams to adapt to unknowns without missing deadlines, even if it means changing the original plan. If you’re tired of chasing fixed scopes that derail timelines, join my Shape Up session on November 21st. Learn how adjusting scope can help your team deliver on time with confidence. https://lnkd.in/ejNxkB4k #development #productmanagement #shapeup

We talk the book and we talk courage and stubbornness. What are the personality traits that make you question the status quo? “Stubborn? Maybe a little bit. I think life’s too short to do something we don’t like. When I go to work, I want it to connect to something valuable.”- responds David Pereira to my inquiry.

https://lnkd.in/eC2v4rrf Lets move to outcome based roadmaps (problems to solve) with real product teams (no feature teams) and do a good discovery and feasibility first in order to define what need to be delivered by when… and if we have figured that out we give high-integrity commitments… Now how to deal with project/delivery managers that are only interested in commitment dates? Let’s compromise: let’s give product teams some time to do product discovery first in order to commit to dates and deliverables Love this talk!

I am incredibly proud of my dear friend! This book is phenomenal and full of realistic tips and feedback for those interested in embarking on the Technical Product Management career path. Seun Runsewe breaks down technical jargon in a way that is easy for anyone to understand, apply, and thrive. Wishing you ALL of the success!.

Thrilled to cross the 4,000 reader milestone, but what's been most rewarding is the dialogue with founders and operators. The best feedback loop is every time a piece has resonated and sparked an outreach to dive deeper into GTM or product strategies. I hope that the writing continues to fulfil this purpose and help founders more intelligently chart their course to PMF and beyond: https://lnkd.in/etuc5q-e
