<p>As product managers, it is our job to define the right <a href="https://www.mindtheproduct.com/category/product-management-metrics-and-kpis/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">metrics and KPIs</a> for our products and our businesses, which is critical if we want to measure our progress and know if we’re successfully driving the right outcomes. But how do you do that? In no particular order, here are eight of our best talks from Mind the Product and <a href="https://www.mindtheproduct.com/producttank-about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ProductTank</a> on the topic:</p>

<h3><a href="https://www.mindtheproduct.com/driving-growth-vs-building-core-value-by-roan-lavery/">Driving Growth vs Building Core Value by Roan Lavery</a></h3>
<p>Product managers always find themselves trying to make disparate groups of people happy. In this #mtpcon London 2018 talk, the Co-Founder and CPO of FreeAgent shares their three-step framework to help manage this process across organisations. It starts by defining the core value of a product, in a way that everybody can understand, and then maps user journeys, at varying points of the user’s lifecycle. Finally, it creates a scorecard from a variety of KPIs. <a href="https://www.mindtheproduct.com/driving-growth-vs-building-core-value-by-roan-lavery/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Watch now</a></p>

Ken Norton from Google Ventures joined us at #mtpcon London 2015 and shared how we can all think bigger. <a href="https://www.mindtheproduct.com/video-10x-not-10-product-management-by-orders-of-magnitude-by-ken-norton/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Watch now</a></p>
