Product Manifesto

Product Manifesto

We all believe products and services exist to make the world better. This is dedicated to helping teams identify impact and create value sooner.

Values

Simplicity over perfection

Pursuing goals over executing project plans

Understanding the problem over thinking of solutions

End-user needs over stakeholder opinions

Measuring results over assuming impact

Principles

  • Creating value for end-users and business is what defines success
  • Frequently reorient to what creates value
  • Embrace uncertainty. Be bold to ask for forgiveness instead of permission
  • Saying NO unlocks focus to delivery valuable solutions
  • Make assumptions and validate them as fast as possible
  • The key to innovation is to take small risks enabling learning and evidence based evolution
  • Measure business metrics and focus on improving them beyond monetary results
  • Craft a go-live strategy early and work backwards
  • Know your customer and users! Every product has both
  • Bond cross-functional teams around the product vision, where everyone is responsible for outcomes
  • Product teams are empowered by top management
