The best managers give kudos now, not later. They don't make you wait for ‘THE DAY’. You should do these 4 things to be the best manager: ☑️Celebrate wins, big or small, right when they happen.  ☑️Work with your team on clear career paths. ☑️Trust your team. Delegate, let them own projects. ☑️Celebrate the "we" not the "me." Ditch the pressure cooker mentality. Lead with instant (positive) gratification, and watch your team blossom on the spot. #employee #culture #gratification

Grateful to have attended an amazing event by Starling, presented by Jessica Martin, MAEd/Cl, on change management. Thanks to Jess for sharing such actionable insights! One key takeaway that struck me was the importance of managing the human side of change. As product managers, we drive continuous improvement not just in our products but also within our teams. Here are a few lessons that stood out: 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆: In product development, early stakeholder involvement can prevent last-minute surprises and ensure alignment. 𝗛𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗹𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗙𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗴𝘂𝗲: Recognize that everyone’s tolerance for change is different. Manage this by celebrating wins and addressing concerns proactively. 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆: Building trust is essential. Communicate the 'why' behind changes and maintain alignment with both departmental and organizational goals. Change is inevitable, but with the right approach, we can navigate it smoothly and turn challenges into opportunities for growth. Thank you, Jess and Starling, for the knowledge and inspiration! #ProductManagement #ChangeManagement #Leadership #ContinuousImprovement #Agile

Should Key Results be leading or lagging indicators? I prefer them lagging b/c I want to be sure when we "arrive" at the objective. Leading indicators can't tell you that. Of course, without lead indicators, OKRs lose their signalling power. So if you must die on that hill, use both • 3 lag + 2 lead Key Results • 2 lag + 3 lead Key Results • 2 lag + 2 lead Key Results Just be sure with every OKR, your team is creating value • for the customer • for the company • for the team OKRs are only a charade if the team never asks: "Do these metrics (leading or lagging) prove that we have arrived?"
