1 How PMs Can Improve Working & Communicating with Engineers w/ Paul Lunow, Head of Technology and Innovation at XU Sustainable 27:54
Lessons in Product Management - Working & Communicating with Engineers Guest: Paul Lunow Host: John Doe Episode Duration: ~28 min [00:00 - 01:37] Introduction John welcomes Paul Lunow to the podcast. Paul previously hosted John on Product and Cake . Background on Paul’s 20-year career in tech. [01:37 - 04:05] Paul’s Background in Product & Engineering Started in Berlin as a web developer, grew an agency to 30 people. Founded Nepos, a startup building a tablet for elderly users. Moved to eBay to experience corporate innovation. Now Head of Innovation & Technology at XU Group, building a B2B learning platform. [04:05 - 06:45] The Role of AI in Learning Platforms Discusses AI’s role in education. AI is a tool for augmentation, not a replacement for learning. [06:45 - 10:38] How Product Managers Can Work Better with Engineers The importance of psychological safety in teams. Engineers need a space to fail, ask questions, and collaborate. Great product managers create environments of trust. [10:38 - 14:46] How Much Tech Knowledge Should a PM Have? PMs don’t need to code but must deeply understand the product . The worst thing: a PM who pretends to know coding but doesn’t use the product. PMs should be the first to log in daily and experience the product firsthand. [14:46 - 18:08] Anti-Patterns: What Drives Engineers Crazy Overworked and stressed PMs create pressure and disconnection. Avoid last-minute changes and unclear expectations. Balance deep work vs. reactive work —don’t just respond to messages all day. [18:08 - 22:26] Managing Workload as a PM Split work into offense (strategic work) and defense (reactive tasks) . Prioritize one key task per day instead of juggling everything at once. Time-box meetings and avoid unnecessary stakeholder discussions. [22:26 - 24:59] How PMs Can Earn Engineers’ Trust Be a sparring partner , not just a requirement-pusher. Never throw engineers under the bus— own decisions as a team . A PM should always support and defend shipped features . [24:59 - 27:36] Final Thoughts & Paul’s Work Mistakes happen—focus on developing strong personal values as a PM. Paul’s new novel about an engineer in Big Tech (available in German). Connect with Paul on LinkedIn. [27:36 - 28:00] Closing Remarks Subscribe to Product and Cake & Lessons in Product Management .

Podcast Summary: Megan Shulby on Post-Launch Product ManagementIntroduction & Megan’s Background 01:24 - 02:01 – Megan Shulby is introduced; she and John connected via LinkedIn due to her content on underrated product management topics. 02:01 - 04:39 – Megan shares her journey from Hollywood entertainment (e.g., The Biggest Loser ) to digital marketing, leading to product management. She pursued graduate studies in Information Systems and Marketing to gain technical expertise. 04:40 - 05:47 – She discusses how her media background, especially storytelling, plays a role in product management by aligning teams and ensuring a human-centered approach. 05:48 - 08:59 – Megan emphasizes the importance of balancing technical and interpersonal skills in product management. While technical foundations are necessary, storytelling is key in aligning stakeholders, engineering, and sales. 09:00 - 11:37 – Discussion on the differences between film production and software development, highlighting the lack of post-launch iteration in film versus continuous improvement in software. 11:38 - 13:51 – John and Megan discuss how B2B product teams can adopt a controlled introduction approach similar to film test screenings, mitigating reputational risk through phased rollouts. 13:52 - 16:24 – Megan explains why post-launch is critical, yet often overlooked. Many PMs shift focus to new features rather than optimizing existing ones. 16:25 - 17:22 – Importance of tracking feature success post-launch, ensuring shipped products meet their intended impact. 17:23 - 19:46 – Key elements of post-launch management: stakeholder alignment (sales, customer support, finance), defining success metrics, and monitoring usage. 19:47 - 22:32 – Importance of measurement and data tracking, with a focus on ensuring product success metrics are defined pre-launch and monitored post-launch. 22:33 - 25:49 – Challenges in data collection, particularly in "digital adaptive" businesses transitioning from legacy systems, making it difficult to track clear success indicators. 25:50 - End – Key lesson: Not all businesses have perfect data, and product managers must work with what’s available, making informed correlations where necessary.

Episode Summary: In this episode, John Fontenot explores a thought-provoking topic: the potential consolidation of Product Management (PM) and User Experience (UX) roles due to advancements in Generative AI. He examines the overlap between these two disciplines, the evolving responsibilities of PMs and UX designers, and how organizations may react to increased efficiency through AI. Key Takeaways: 1. Understanding the Unique Roles of PM and UX Designer (00:25 - 02:32) PMs focus on business objectives, prioritization, roadmaps, stakeholder management, and go-to-market strategies. UX designers specialize in information architecture, interaction design, prototyping, and usability testing. Despite distinct roles, there is a significant overlap, particularly in customer research, solution ideation, and user flow testing. 2. Will AI Eliminate the Need for Both Roles? (02:35 - 06:50) AI can increase efficiency, but does it replace UX or PM roles entirely? Many organizations underutilize UX designers, treating them primarily as visual designers. AI efficiency gains should ideally allow both roles to focus on higher-level strategic work rather than replacing either. 3. The Risk of Role Consolidation (06:55 - 09:25) Companies with limited UX investment might see AI as an opportunity to eliminate UX roles, shifting responsibilities to PMs. Similarly, strategic UX professionals who engage with stakeholders and business objectives could replace PMs in certain organizations. PMs focused only on execution (e.g., writing JIRA tickets) may find their roles at risk in the future. 4. The Need for Cross-Skilling (09:30 - 13:40) PMs should develop UX skills (e.g., using Figma, understanding usability principles) to become better collaborators and future-proof their careers. UX designers should engage more in strategy, business alignment, and product thinking to solidify their role. Organizations benefit when both disciplines embrace AI efficiencies while maintaining their unique expertise. 5. Future-Proofing Your Career (13:40 - End) PMs and UX designers should leverage AI as a tool rather than fearing replacement. Developing cross-functional skills ensures career longevity and adaptability. A collaborative approach leads to better business outcomes and personal career growth. Final Thoughts: John concludes by urging PMs and UX designers to embrace AI-driven efficiencies while strengthening their core competencies. By adapting and evolving, professionals in both fields can safeguard their careers and contribute more effectively to their organizations.

In this episode of Lessons in Product Management , host John Fontenot tackles a listener's question: How can a product manager succeed in a waterfall environment? He acknowledges that while Agile is often the preferred framework, many industries and organizations still operate in waterfall models, making adaptability key. Fontenot offers two approaches: The Ideal Scenario – Where leadership is open to change, product managers can integrate discovery into waterfall planning by validating key assumptions upfront, treating specifications as hypotheses rather than rigid plans, and advocating for continuous learning. The Less-than-Ideal Scenario – When change is difficult, PMs should still find ways to gather feedback on in-flight projects, document assumptions, and leverage data to push for iterative improvements. His key message: Regardless of methodology, success lies in how PMs use the time between releases to refine strategies and make data-driven decisions. If you're an aspiring PM looking to gain real, hands-on product management experience OR if you're a current PM looking to augment your current experience in other domains, come join us at Path2Product where you'll solve real problems from real users of real products.…
Do you feel constantly pressured to ship new features? Do you get the space you need for proper discovery? Most Product Managers feel this pressure, and I was recently asked on LinkedIn why this is the case. What about our company cultures or human nature drives this desire for more new stuff? In this episode, I attempt to break down the top 3 reasons why I believe Product culture drives outputs over outcomes, even we say we want the opposite. Linkedin Post If you're looking to get your shot at a job in product management and not sure how to get the experience you need to make that leap, come join us on Path2Product where over 1,200 aspiring PMs are not only learning what the job is really like, but they are gaining hands-on experience and developing their portfolio to stand out in the job market.…
On today's Lesson in Product Management, this one is for the perfectionists out there. If you consider yourself a "creative" or an artist, you might be tempted to hide your work until you deem it "perfect" - but that could be hurting you more than you know. On this episode we break down why perfectionism hurts you and those around you and ultimately will set you back in your career and the progress you seek to make for customers. If you're looking to get into product management but lack the years of experience you need to get in, look no further than Path2Product where we help you bridge the gap in product management experience, build a portfolio to prove your skills and prepare you for interviews and empower you to hit the ground running once you land that first PM job.…
It's easy to get overly focused on "doing your job" as a product manager. Unfortunately, we risk taking too narrow of a view of what our job actually is. When it comes to working with PMMs (product marketing managers), it's no different. And it's about time we start treating them like partners rather than someone we throw releases over the wall to and expect them to make our products sell. If you're looking to get into product management and want the training and experience you need to get there, join us at Path2Product where we bridge the gap in product management experience for aspiring product managers.…
Some of the greatest leaders and leadership authors have given the advice to "Lean into your strengths." This idea makes sense in some instances. In other cases, it can handicap your career and growth trajectory.

Great PMs are like sponges, they soak in info from anywhere We can’t assume we’re always right, we don’t have all information, and the info we have is not always perfect or correct We need allies - we can’t ship successful products on our own However: We should have an opinion - we just don’t always have to express it in an argumentative fashion This doesn’t mean we say yes to everything - we can’t be order takers So, if we can’t say yes, then how do we say no… we don’t - the best way to not say yes is to ask questions Ask for clarification Ask for context Ask for data It’s pointless to argue as a product manager. We have zero power, and we need allies across our company in order for our team’s work to be successful. Next time you get tempted to argue, remember those six tips: Always accept and encourage feedback and counter-opinions Never assume you’re always correct - we rarely are You need allies, so don’t alienate them You should have an opinion but be tactful in expressing it Don’t say yes to everything But don’t say no to anything. Use questions to put the ball back in the court of the requestor I hope these tips are helpful as you go about your week, and I’ll see you next week for another lesson in product management.
