🎯 Building for Indecisive People: A Product Perspective Ever worked with stakeholders who can’t decide what they want? As product professionals, we often navigate the maze of indecision, tailoring solutions for a wide spectrum of personalities. From those who know everything (and won’t budge) to those who have no clue (but trust you to lead), each type requires a unique strategy. Understanding these categories isn’t just a skill—it’s a superpower. It helps you co-create value, build trust, and turn indecision into clarity. Dive into my latest article to learn how to identify these personas and successfully build for them.

Y'all, I've been thinking about this a lot lately: exceptional product leaders aren't defined by how many features they ship – but by how many they deliberately choose not to build. Here's what saying strategic "nos" has taught me: 1. Every "yes" comes with an opportunity cost. When you say yes to one feature, you're implicitly saying no to dozens of others. Make it count. 2. The hardest nos are to good ideas. Bad ideas are easy to reject. The real challenge? Saying no to solid proposals that simply don't serve your core strategy. 3. The way you say no matters more than the no itself: - "No, because..." builds trust - "No, but here's what we can do..." shows partnership - "No for now, and here's when we'll revisit..." keeps doors open Product management isn't about making everyone happy – it's about making the right people successful. How do you handle saying no to stakeholders while maintaining strong relationships? #ProductManagement #Leadership #Strategy #ProductDecisions #StakeholderManagement

As product leaders, we must always prioritize direct engagement with users, iterating based on their feedback to drive innovation and success.
