Melissa Perri and applying common sense to product management

Today’s topic is product management and lean startup. My guest is Melissa Perri.

When I asked around for tips on who to interview while in New York her name came up frequently. I’ve met her at several conferences and knew her to be an expert on product management. I was sure we’d have a fun chat so I reached out and she agreed to sit down for an interview!

We talk about how to get from business requirements, which often aren’t really requirements at all, to validated learning.

We discuss validation, experiments, user research, a weekly cadence and how top management and product management should work together.
