Interaction design separates good from great products.
The best way to learn it is with examples.
So I made this massive post with 43 original examples!

But there are a ton of other kinds that can help radically clarify ideas.
Here are 6 of my favorites + when and how to do them.
Try them out to make better product decisions (and impress your boss).

PM is an insanely cross-functional role.
On the same day, a PM can easily talk to designers, engineers, executives, data analysts, etc. etc. etc.
But each of these roles focuses on & cares about different things.
PMs need to tailor their communication to their audience.
Stop wasting time with random PM content.
I've spent >100 hrs curating:
🔹 60 all-time best resources
🔹 Sequencing them for impact
🔹 Writing q's for maximum learning

PMs love driving metrics.
If it can be measured, it can be improved.
But this quickly leads to unbalanced products.
What about less measurable things, like happiness?
Google invented the HEART to put happiness first. Here's how they measure it:

Every PM:
✅ Wants to keep up with all the new AI tools
❌ Knows they don't have time for that!
So I spent my entire weekend trying out hundreds of them for you.
Most: Completely irrelevant for PMs
A few: Truly amazing
These 8 new AI tools will give you actual PM superpowers:
Hot take: Most problems don't require formal product discovery.
Very few problems are hard enough or important enough to warrant the effort to validate solutions. You can fix most things with your best guess, and maybe a little iteration.
Every PM wants to get better at strategy.
I used to love studying strategy but got lost when I tried to make my own.
Then I learned how to make product flywheels. Now I always know where to start, and how to drive alignment.
Here's a step-by-step guide to making your own 🧵

Got some feedback that my 1-pager thread is too long.
...I guess that's fair 🫠
So here's my 1-pager 1-pager!

A roadmap is not a strategy.
Roadmaps should be an output of strategy, good ones will always clearly tie back to one.
Real strategy answers:
• what we’re building + why
• how we’re going to grow + why
• who we’re going to target + why
• what risks we're ready to take + why
It's easy to get confused how:
• Vision
• Strategy
• Roadmap
All work together.
I like this simple visual, which includes the often forgotten aspects of segemntation and specitics.
I used to be terrified of meeting with executives.
My hands would shake just sending a meeting invite.
I'd stay up all night memorizing every detail, making 50-slide decks.
Then I'd bomb.
Communicating with leadership is a whole new ballgame.
Here are things I've learned:
Fantastic example of a "KPI tree"
🟦 = overall KPI goal
⬜️ = non-metric components of those above
🟦 (light) = concrete metrics to measure ⬜️
🟨 = specific ideas to influence metrics
PM Communication Skills Scorecard
How do you rank? Where can you improve?
How to use this:
1. Read each scenario
2. Consider how you ACTUALLY respond day-to-day
3. Use the examples to rank yourself for each category
Then use this to improve your weakest areas.
Good luck!
A well-crafted strategy deck is a PM's secret weapon.
But they're very hard to write.
So I analyzed over 100 famous strategy decks to distill the secrets of rock-solid strategy.
Here's a tactical overview of award-winning strategy decks 👇

Easy mistake for PMs: Thinking if everyone knows what they should work on, then everyone's "aligned."
But this is only a superficial alignment.
True alignment comes from teammates understanding the deeper *why* behind their work.
Product management is actually pretty easy.
You just need to know design, finance, elements of engineering, psychology, negotiation, project management, speaking, writing, marketing, storytelling, analytics, never stop being curious, and want to learn more every single day.
I love this roadmap concept.
After shipping a feature, there's still the ramp up, A/B testing, analysis, etc.
This roadmap helps stakeholders understand both when something will ship and when they might start seeing impact.
