I help Teams find and keep focus
I'm all about helping teams stay on track and build thriving digital businesses. One of the biggest keys to success? Solving customer problems. Sure, it sounds simple and obvious, but it can be tricky to execute in the real world. As digital businesses and products grow, it's common to lose sight of what truly matters amidst the growing complexity and overwhelming amount of information. My focus is on helping product teams stay on track and deliver value to their customers and to provide customized methods to keep your team on course and aligned with your goals.

THE anchors OF FOCUS
1
Customer Understanding
A solid understanding of the customer is an invaluable anchor in prioritization. When making prioritization decisions, multiple perspectives must be balanced. Refocusing on the customer's problems often helps clarify what is essential and what can wait.
2
The Business Equation
To successfully lead a product, it's crucial to have a shared understanding of what needs to be true for the business to succeed. However, this equation is often based on numerous assumptions. Articulating and validating these assumptions with the team helps avoid costly detours and keeps everyone aligned towards the shared goal.
3
The Core Product
The core product must provide value to the customer as well as be maintainable and of good enough quality to enable growth. What is considered "enough" depends heavily on the stage of the product life cycle. Making informed decisions about what is "enough" requires a solid understanding of the business equation and customer needs within the team.
