Smashed a ton of adds on here for people I was following on Twitter. Hi!
Worthy Read: How to accelerate growth by focusing on the features you already have by Ken Rudin "Most of a company's growth comes from the less glamorous stuff: incremental and consistent optimization of the core product." 💡 Want to drive more growth? Forget chasing new features.
Ex-Twitter and still looking for great people in #product to follow. Please hit me up if you are working in this space. Big fan of #proptech, #govtech and #climatetech! #productmanagement. Gracias!
@team18f.bsky.social had a great track record. I remember reading their guidance a few years back and thinking how great it would have been to work with their team. #digital #dodge

When you view your roadmap from today forward, you tend to forget that today = the sum total of many decisions in the past. This is why the near term is more "locked" while the cone of uncertainty expands as you move into the future
@richmironov.bsky.social thanks for the follow - great to have you on here!

I miss having a good Bodega nearby. Open late with fresh food and bagels. UK has nothing like them 🥲

Designing a simple service is relatively easy. Designing a simpler service while bounded by a range of immutable constraints is the actual work. It's messy. You need tech with you from the start to help you understand the mess.
