Tough Product Management Decisions

Hear our panel (perhaps our largest ever) discuss their toughest decisions and where they went for advice, with a strong focus on End-of-Life and killing new product ideas (including how at Google you have to convince leadership you should KEEP doing something), along with some thoughts on migrating (or not migrating) feature requests to a new tool, shifting a product strategy for an idea the head of product had, and overcoming an executive trying to be the tail wagging the dog.

Learn our thoughts on why Strategy/Roadmap prioritization was voted the most frequent type of tough decision, and the difference between product lifecycle related and EOL decisions.

Get our two-cents on the following questions:

• What is the best way to handle a recommendation on a tough decision that leadership ignores?
• How do you best prepare and support your team when they are faced with tough decisions?

And get our rapid-fire answers from every panelist on "What/who are your go-to sources for advice when facing a tough decision?" Including Jon Harmer's "three or four dudes in a Slack channel."

This week Grant Hunter is joined by Jason Vincelette, Gregg Fenton, Jon Harmer, Paul Hurwitz, Brian Weber, Mounika Sanikommu, Robert Goldberg,  and Tom Caragher to talk about tough product management decisions we have faced.
