Joe's Rules of Product Management
Something to blog about
After nearly four years at Yahoo! I finally feel like I have something to blog about.
One of the best things about my job is that I get to learn from some of the best minds on the internet. Periodically, something that I learn resonates so deeply, or describes my situation so precisely that I can’t help but print it in 30 point font and hang it on the wall of my cube. This happens very rarely - about once a year. But these rules inevitably make me a better product manager, and - more importantly - make my job more fun. So I thought I’d blog about them over the next few weeks as the mood strikes me. Some of these may seem simple, or pedantic - and that’s by design. It’s meant to make sense to the casual observer. I’ll try and include links to more detailed resources in each of my posts.
Before I begin…
A great primer on technology product management is Marty Cagan’s book Inspired: How To Create Products Customers Love. Marty also blogs on the silicon valley product group website.
