Practical Tips for Building PM Skills by Reddit Sr PMProduct School
Main Takeaways:
- The best way to start developing your product sense is to think intentionally about your everyday product usage.
- The only way to develop execution skills is by building, shipping, and iterating. And you don't have to know how to write code to build something!
- Always try to tie the impact of a proposed feature or idea back to a top-line metric that the company cares about, whether it's active users, revenue, or something else that impacts the business.
Leading Organizations – Bigger Challenges
The organization chart may be useful in determining who to call when you are going to be late for work, but job responsibilities change far more rapidly than organization charts. Matrix organizations create another layer of complexity. Communication is one of the top reasons that teams do not achieve their goals, and the communication links between important stakeholders may not even be shown on a traditional org chart, as is the case with suppliers, alliance partners, and customers. As a result, leaders may find themselves responsible for teams of people who do not report to them. A directive approach in these circumstances works even less well than it does with subordinates where there is a reporting relationship. Leading effectively in these circumstances requires a disciplined framework for generating results predictably and repeatedly. Technology and process excellence will only get you so far. Ultimately it is the people who make an organization successful, and successful organizational leaders must master the three “P”s – Product subject matter knowledge, Process excellence, and influential People skills. Identifying roles and responsibilities separate from position or title is a start. Creating a mutually beneficial purpose, compelling vision, clear mission and shared values that bring the various stakeholders together to collaborate in achieving the goals is essential. What gets measured is what gets done. Progress toward success must be monitored and measured, then shared with all relevant stakeholders. The five one-page tools presented in this module can make all of this manageable without unnecessary bureaucracy.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
