[Please share] Calling all people who work in tech! 🙋 Got 10 minutes to try something different? Along with @johncutlefish and the @TheCynefinCo we've put together a public platform for you to tell the world what it’s like in tech right now. 👉 bit.ly/stories-from-t…

When teams believe "the goal" is to finish all the stories in a Sprint, they start focusing on work, not impact on customers. When we focus on work only, more work emerges and we have no way to manage/scope it out. Because the goal is, effectively "more work" #NoEstimates

@nurijanian produxlabs.com/product-thinki… This wonderful conversation by @lissijean and @jeffpatton unpacks it nicely.

@ColinPear @allenholub User Story Mapping by @jeffpatton has been my go to book for the matter. I think ideally your team collects stories by observing and talking to customers.

@chris_hurney I hear you. Just thought about this today and suggested a review column where the sticky goes after we deploy and stays there as long as we actually learn something. It often seems that after we deliver the work is over when it actually means it’s just about to get started.

@chris_hurney @jeffpatton What I am concerned about is that such a powerful framing tool does not get a chance that often.

@chris_hurney @jeffpatton The naming does not really matter though it probably would help to tame the confusion a bit and avoid the pushback in the times when we are really talking about the same thing.

Your success always depends on the behaviours of people and systems that are outside your control. Here's an excellent new post from @jeffpatton expanding on that core tension in product work. jpattonassociates.com/tension/ h/t @PirkkaH

Shared understanding + transparency = clarity = fun. There is something truly magical in this talk by @johncutlefish mindtheproduct.com/why-happier-au… The art of framing things thru different time scales and the shape of the work. It's all connected, it's all about bets. Rewatching it.

@fdh327888 @davefarley77 It's quite literal, tho. We create solutions to problems that people have by working with other people. The tech is by far the easiest. We do not work alone building things for ourselves alone, and even then, we'd have to deal with ourselves—a person.

@andybudd @0Empathy0 @hellojoie I find any discussion where one role owns research or is better at research over another role to be silly. Everyone needs to be doing research. The turf wars are detrimental to everyone. The customer most of all.

Probably that is something where the sphere of influence of the team can go. It depends. Anyways I want to make sure that everyone on the team has the opportunity to access the whole context. It's very important to me.

Also there seems to be a correlation to the fun of the work. Now working mostly on the A-C levels and the env gravitating me more on the A side. Trying to push more on the C side and would love to expand to the E and F in near future. Now there is a goal for the upcoming years.

The measure of success seems to be connected to the context you're given i.e. the highest abstraction level you are working on. I've used this by @johncutlefish cutlefish.substack.com/p/tbm-2752-man… to make sense of it.

Just a quick reminder. Whenever somebody gives you a feature to ship, consider saying something like… “That sounds great. Can you tell me a little more about the problem this is intending to solve, who it solves it for and what other solutions you've considered?”
