He&#8217;s a content machine. He&#8217;s written 3 books (two books on product and one on the musician Elliot Smith), plenty of music, and much more &#8211; which means that he&#8217;s prone to going down a rabbit hole before sharing his work with a team. To combat that, he now employs the approach of One Page / One Hour, which is designed to get the whole team involved in a collaborative manner.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: 1rem;">In this episode, sponsored by <a href="https://www.mindtheproduct.com/mtpcon/digital/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">#mtpcon Digital</a>, </span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">listen to learn about:</span></p>
<ul>
<li>How to document well</li>
<li>The &#8216;One Page / One Hour&#8217; technique</li>
<li>Co-creating as a team</li>
<li>Making the most of your time</li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: inherit; font-family: rawline, sans-serif; font-size: 1.75rem;">Quote of the Episode</span></h3>
<blockquote><p>There is no guarantee that if you are doing your job well that you will be recognised and acknowledged for it. If a product manager is doing their job really well, they will be invisible. Their team&#8217;s work will speak for itself, and it will reflect their team&#8217;s work. And one of the most dangerous things a company can do is reward product managers for their individual outputs rather than for the collective outcomes delivered by their team.</p></blockquote>
