Just realized the part of Series of Unfortunate Events where Count Olaf orders the children to make him dinner and they go to great lengths to make him pasta puttanesca, only to have him rage at them for not making whatever he’d had in mind instead, is an allegory of #productmanagent.

Suppose it's time for an #introduction

I'm Wren! [They/She] I help people, make things, and try to take things the right amount of serious. I Mostly boost, but trying to toot more. I came over from .lol a while ago and since I'm still here I might as well settle in.

Things I am:
#queer #trans #anarchist

Things I like & make:
#art (especially #blockprinting #graffiti & #fibrearts )

#games (mostly #ttrpg & #larp but I like #boardgames & #vidyagames too [don't make these yet])

#software (but only in an #anticapitalist way & v much still learning, my professional background is in #projectmanagent but moved into a #productmanagent role recently)

#plants (mostly #houseplants for now, recently obsessed with #philodendrons & #pothos for their beauty, climbing, and easy propagation)

Things I like & don't make:
#music (almost everything, especially #punk #hiphop & [real, leftist] #country / #americana )

#cats (I have two wonderful girls who I spoil way too much, a #tortie and a #tuxedocat both longhaired)

This is the kind of day I'm having.

[Me to a mate at work]: Lol did you post then delete a chatgpt haiku about psychosocial harm in the workplace regulations to our all-company chat?

Chats over the long weekend with good friends reminded me to try not to slip back into classic #impostersyndrome thinking. Don't sell yourself short, learnings are equally if not more valuable than other outcomes, and women tend to suffer more of this than men do - not always of course, but certainly a big chunk.
Everyone deserves a personal hype team - I needed mine this weekend!

On a coaching call this morning, had the pleasure of hearing from from a CPO that he'd just bought a copy of @aprildunford 's "Obviously Awesome"
Great book from my (the) go-to positioning thought leader.

Obviously Awesome - How to Nail Product Positioning so Customers Get it, Buy it, Love it

April Dunford's book on product positioning is a practical guide for startups and tech companies looking to simplify their story for customers.

Sometimes people forget how freaking big the world outside #twitter is .
Take for eg MSN news , which I am sure many consider a spam site

It still has 550M monthly readers ...

Ofcourse not an exact comparison, but Twitter has about 200ishM mDAU

It's a sustainable business , and I assume profitable.

I get approached quite often for questions around #productmanagent and quite frankly I Love to teach and share( my first part time job was computer science teacher)

We didn't have much to follow when we started, and stumbled our way...i am an accidental #productmanager

I hope the new ones don't make the same mistake.. rather they make new ones..

So if you want to talk about #ProductMgmt you can hit me up on substack chat.

Madhur started a thread

What do you want to know about product management?

@teppie @IamKathrynGrace @ianames @mattedgar … in the context of #productmanagent / #servicedesign the phrase is more “Oh, we already work that way! Job done”

I wrote up a piece about the Weekly wind down session I hold with my team, as some people found the idea interesting earlier in the week.

The idea is to create a psychologically safe place to vent the week away and hopefully go into the weekend without baggage.

My team really like the session, so it works for us 😃
