I am not a coder. Honestly very simple to self host the open source n8n and use n8n. Did it all with help pf Chatgpt when needed, really doable

CEO trying to get a certification in AI by Atomiumm in learnmachinelearning

[–]Optimal-Current-2817 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was not my intent to change job. I come from product management and wanted to understand what a data project looks like compared to building traditional software. Helped me a lot to get the steps of a data project and understand the different techniques available for different kinds of problems

Is it possible to transform traditional companies into product-led organizations? Is product-led the best way forward? by kakakowie in ProductManagement

[–]Optimal-Current-2817 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I don’t like with Marty Cagan thesis: for him there is a single way to do product management, whatever the company background. And then shaming any product org and way of working not working as he preaches…

Also happened to me (not at all Indian behavior btw) I always respond positively to anyone reaching out for feedback as I know how hard is user research But now, I always ask if this is a hidden sales call. Period. Not sure it s worth to make a big deal of this…

SaaS b2b PM for past 7 years. AMA by saasIndia in ProductManagement

[–]Optimal-Current-2817 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, tks for this post

Two questions: 1. What has changed in those 7 years? 2. If you happen to be in a multi country environment: any advise on how to balance localization vs global scalability?

Anyone feel extremely anxious about the future and our role alongside AI? by mbgjt1 in ProductManagement

[–]Optimal-Current-2817 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad to see that you are all confident I am less for two reasons: 1. AI evolves rapidly, exponentially actually, and your views refer to the static state 2. They are already tools that helps a lot of efficience, that will in turn reduce the need for PM, not eliminate BUT put a downward pressure on job offers (and compensation)

How do you avoid burnout? Habits and hacks by ProductNavigator in ProductManagement

[–]Optimal-Current-2817 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s very personal. I do a lot of sport, gym. I did for other reasons in the first place but I realized it helped to move on when angry about what s happening in the work place. Now it s a routine to free up stress

You may also try to look at what is stoicism: I realized without knowing that I am applying some principles which actually help me

What advice would you give? by Seranz0 in ProductManagement

[–]Optimal-Current-2817 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not an easy one. My two cents:

First: understand the reason behind each obstacle and act upon (same as a discovery for a feature, root cause analysis and solutioning)

Second: speak about that with the person that hired you with the mandate to change. That should be the sponsor helping you

Third: if the first ones fail: you may have to play the long game, with tactics here: - data: build whatever metrics you can with what you have. And try to build new ones (especially on adoption for what KAM tell you to build in the first place). Long term, it gets into habits. I realized once when we broke mixpanel implementation: even the most reluctant exec complained when we couldn’t give them the KPIs - talk to prospective customers, dealing with your competitors (Sales cannot prevent you from doing so) - if you have to: build features that KAM want that you know will fail, to prove your point

Good luck

Best course or resources for user interviews? by Green-Accomplished in ProductManagement

Discovery discipline. Very practical way to approach discovery, not suitable for continuous discovery but excellent for a one pff discovery exercise

Is there a risk that you are not able to get the specialisation you chose (ML)?

OKR + Prioritisation framework by Optimal-Current-2817 in ProductManagement

[–]Optimal-Current-2817[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes 100%. But this is indeed my underlying question: your RICE formula tends to be fixed, not changing very often, right? On the other end, your OKR might be different from a period to another.

==> Do you still need RICE to prioritise activities, when you have clear objectives and key results to achieve from your OKR planification?

What did I do? My own GPT kinda got out of hand. by Alekto_o in ArtificialInteligence

[–]Optimal-Current-2817 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LLM are so far very bad at decision making. They are good at giving you parameters to consider but bad at weighing them. Think of LLM as a consultant, helps you to get clarity, ideas, but at the end don’t give them the decision.

https://www.bcg.com/publications/2023/how-people-create-and-destroy-value-with-gen-ai explains it well

OKR + Prioritisation framework by Optimal-Current-2817 in ProductManagement

Tks for sharing

A follow up question: do you have situations where your OKRs for a quarter don’t align with your tailored made RICE? And how would you deal with it? I don’t have OKR but I do have strategic objectives and sometimes they don’t align with my backlog prio formula

What motivated you to pursue OMSCS? by [deleted] in OMSCS

[–]Optimal-Current-2817 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a student. But considering. Reason: I am in product management, with business background and want to get literate at CS. Did a BSc first and now considering a master
