Take this course! I cannot recommend this enough! Gibson Biddle's DHM model has dramatically improved my executive communication and cemented a number of poorly organized thoughts and observations of my own. He just says it much more clearly, much more concretely, and much more usefully than the mishmash in my head :) (And I'll take this moment to plug my own lightning course on using community to land your next job, happening tomorrow, in the comments.)

Why Product Management Skills are Important: EPISODE #3 Another week went...another month... Six months down the road, we had pushed SMS promo messages to over five hundred thousand 'users'. As for electronic media coverage, we had done over FOUR radio shows and appearances. Results? There was literally no revenue: what we had made couldn't even pay for the platform. While I felt we were flogging a dead horse, the investor (who by the way had footed all the costs) felt we needed to keep pushing the ads and promos. My friend and I had to make an uncomfortable, yet most business-wise decision - PIVOT. What next? Episode #4, coming up on Friday (31/05/2024)...

🚀 Unpacking the Netflix Phenomenon: A Product Teardown to Drive 3x Growth! 🚀 Hey LinkedIn Fam! 🌟 Netflix is undeniably one of the most successful streaming giants of our time, captivating millions with its diverse content and seamless user experience. 🌍 But even as it continues to grow and bloom, there’s an elephant in the room: the increasing churn rate. 📉 People are unsubscribing, and as product enthusiasts, we need to understand why. 🤔 Despite its vast library of content and innovative features, there are still pain points that prompt users to leave. Today, I'm thrilled to share my deep dive into Netflix’s user experience, uncovering key opportunities to drive exponential growth. Here’s a sneak peek into my comprehensive teardown: 1️⃣ Understanding Viewer Behavior: The first step is listening. From analyzing viewing patterns to understanding content preferences, it’s all about recognizing what our users love—and what they don’t. 2️⃣ Seamless User Experience: What if we could reduce the friction in navigation? Or personalize the content discovery process even more? The user journey is where engagement is either won or lost. 3️⃣ Retention Strategies that Stick: Offering tailored recommendations is great, but going beyond to create a community around content could be the game-changer. How can we leverage social features to keep viewers engaged and coming back for more? 4️⃣ Global Expansion Insights: With diverse tastes across different regions, it’s crucial to think global but act local. How can Netflix adapt its content and strategies to better resonate with audiences worldwide? 5️⃣ Pricing Models & Value Perception: Pricing is always a delicate balance. How can Netflix refine its models to ensure users feel they’re getting unparalleled value without burning a hole in their pockets? As a product manager, this journey has been incredibly exciting and eye-opening! 🚀 It's all about listening to our customers, analyzing trends, and making data-driven decisions to build products that delight and engage. Join me in this exploration and let’s spark a conversation on how we can continue to enhance the Netflix experience. 📈 Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback!

When a vocal stakeholder insists on prioritizing their feature request… In the world of Natural Intelligence (#MataNI), we call this stakeholder "my toddler." Recent scenario: • 𝐑𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭: Unlimited snowball time. • 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐞: "Pay sown! PAY SOWN!" (Translation: "Play snow!") • 𝐌𝐲 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞: Balancing immediate user satisfaction with the long-term roadmap (and frostbite prevention). The result? A 15-minute pivot to indoor hide-and-seek, keeping the broader objectives (a warm, happy, healthy toddler) intact. As PMs, it’s not about saying "yes" to every ask; it’s about listening, understanding the why, and crafting creative solutions. In this case, “snowballs now” transformed into a favorite indoor game and a warm cup of milk—a win-win for everyone involved. What’s the most creative workaround you’ve used to handle a passionate stakeholder? Let’s share some laughs (or lessons)—I'd love to read your stories! #ProductManagement #TechHumor #PMLife #ParentingWhilePM
