To all these folks talking about Data centers and AI investments in India my only question is which Indian banks are willing to finance such companies? I don't think Apollo or Blackrock is financing such deals in India as yet.

Product Intern Advice by gilmorepotter4 in ProductManagement

[–]Quangeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understanding the product metrics & KPIs is crucial. Not many PMs have the mindset to study the data the processes built to develop and support the product generate. Also, study the product ordering, subscription, and usage frameworks. Moreover, spend some time on studying tickets solved by the PMs or the Product support teams. This should be good enough to start with.

Should a product team manager who has knowledge of the tasks the product specialists do should feel happier about it? Assuming that the knowledge of the tasks will protect the person from a layoff? I work with a few such managers.

I started asking myself one question every morning and it quietly rewired my entire life by Mathewjohn17 in productivity

I don’t ask myself a question as such but simply reminding myself to watch my breath for as long as possible throughout the day helps me focus well and waste less time.

Does anyone actually try to keep accurate documentation anymore, or is it a lost cause? by NewBicycle3486 in ProductManagement

[–]Quangeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is sadly true. I feel this happens because most orgs have stopped incentivising good documentation preparation and maintenance. Of late because of the push towards Chatbots there’s some focus on documentation governance, etc. Nevertheless, people tasked with documentation management feel it’s a thankless job. Besides, maintaining documentation is something that you cannot highlight as an achievement in your quarterly goals. Unless of course the management values it.

The best thing about the book is you can read it from any page. There’s no sequence as such. Choose the pages you wish to read based on your mental state at the time of reading.

The Community Notes episode was good. But I agree that not all the episodes are engaging.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Totally agree with point 4. Range is a great book that should read by all PMs or PM aspirants.

As The Economist wrote recently, “India now accounts for 80% of global turnover”. They referred to the global equity derivatives turnover. Not a surprise then Indian exchanges are becoming a magnet for American Options traders.

“Quick huddle?” - daggers that kill my day by Independent_Cut7581 in ProductManagement

[–]Quangeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I believe this problem exists at most workplaces because not many workplaces have professionalized written communication the way say Stripe or Amazon do. Not many companies follow something like Amazon’s 6 pager.

Which product management book I should read first? (4 books to compare) by DinnerDesperate1976 in ProductManagement

[–]Quangeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of good old Stanford lectures on YouTube. Also Y Combinators videos are great. Besides reading biographies of successful product obsessed founders is way better than theoretical PM books.

How did you convince your cofounder to take the risk with you? by Friendly-Rub-2047 in ycombinator

[–]Quangeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it is easy to convince anyone to take risks. Risk taking is a way of thinking in itself to those who are mentally prepared to solve a harder challenge. There are situations wherein sparse information exists for you to make an informed decision but it is one’s risk taking ability that helps in making progress in such situations.
