Context switching is draining & is the most under-appreciated skillset of product managers. Chart from McKinsey: Where do PMs spend time?

Do you know what worked? A clear vision. Design-led development. Weekly demos to deciders who always made the call on what to do next. Clear communication between cross functional teams. Honest feedback. Managing risk as a function of the rate of actual progress toward goals.

Someone explain to me what is the point of this thread? If you’re trying to imply the practice is BS you could argue that easily for a lot of “accepted” roles (brand?strategy?agile?). The design bashing is getting a little passé now

At the risk of opening up that whole “designers can/should be a PM” can of worms…this is literally all strategic design work -at least it’s what I do

@drstefdirusso A local example would be "The Warehouse" in NZ. High, volume low overheads retailer making a big transformation internally through design capability building. Unsure if it's "mature" yet, but certainly on the journey. thewarehouse.co.nz

@drstefdirusso These are hard to find. Decathlon seems a good, lasting example.

Is product design the new UX? I've seen a handful of thoughts and articles where people seem to be lamenting the rise of product design at the expense of other areas of design (UX, Marketing Design, etc.) But it also looks like it's what the cool kids want to do. 🤔

@drstefdirusso Transition as an expert? No. Help connect, translate, transition work? Yes, as in: prodding UX designers to think outside of the screen to the larger experience, to get them thinking about services / CX. Empathy & DT is the common thread.
