You need to regularly check and iterate on your product
processes - don't just set and forget them.

If not, you end up with a system that’s more frustrating than helpful, slowing you down, creating confusion, and making it feel like you’re always putting out fires instead of moving forward.💡

On this thought train, does anyone have any good Product Management Books they've recently read and recommend?

We know the staples but we're always keen to learn more and support our product peeps. So, any new recommendations? 🙏💬👇
Hi! 💕 I mostly talk about product management, crypto, startups, autism, long covid, technology. Please recommend some folks I could follow 🙏

Saying goodbye to a feature or product you’ve nurtured can feel personal. You’ve invested time and energy into making it work.

But what happens when it no longer aligns with your product’s goals or fails to serve your users?

You have to face that harsh reality eventually… (thread)👇
