Key practices
1
Workflow driven design approach
User interviews and quantitative research is the most valuable when embedded at many stages of product discovery phase.
I always bring findings back to the execution team to grow their knowledge of a product and customer.
2
Less handoff documentation, more collaboration
Tight collaboration with engineering helps me make accurate timeline estimates.
Fluid product roadmap is an artifact of constant improvement.
3
Deliver short term while playing long term
Product strategy informs short term product goals and engineering focus.
Planning for tech debt housekeeping as a part of a delivery can save $$$ developing future projects.
