One of the biggest mistakes I see product managers make is making decisions in isolation: Deciding on strategy without considering how it impacts product discovery and delivery, or determining UX and features without letting strategy guide those choices. Great products, however, aren’t built by separating strategy from execution. They’re created by connecting them. That’s exactly why I developed my product strategy model—a simple but powerful way to link product vision, strategy, roadmap, and backlog. This article describes the framework in its latest, revised version.

Product teams play a key role in solving user problems and achieving product success. But who should lead the team and manage its work? The Head of Product, the product manager, or someone else? In this article, I explain why product teams should be self-managing. I describe the benefits this approach offers and what it takes to succeed at self-management.

Strategy and product teams are both key to achieving product success. But what exactly do we mean by strategy? Which one is most relevant for product teams? To what extent should the teams shape strategic decisions? And what role does the head of product play? These are the questions I discuss in this article.
