@ttorres kicking off #ProductatHeart and smashing it, talking about the practical ways to make Discovery a habit. No surprise that identifying hidden assumptions is her first tip - it's something anyone can do, with no barriers. It's also what I developed Dragon Mapping for

Being a Product Leader is a lonely job - but it doesn't have to be. That's why I started getting groups of CPOs together to support each other. They've been brilliant.

Being a CPO is a lonely job - but it doesn't have to be. Yesterday, a group of us got together to share notes about how best to handle shared ownership of KPIs with other departments, what to keep in mind when you've acquired another company, & what AI/GPT tools everyone is using (along with what they're using them for!).

Sounds like something you'd want to join?

There’s another Digital Divide - one that we impose upon ourselves. If you’ve ever been on a product development team and talked about what “the business” wants, you’ve experienced it. Or if you’ve ever complained about waiting for “IT to deliver the requirements.” Or if you’re regularly in discussions where nothing can be decided until someone meets with “the stakeholder.”
