  • The PM is the CEO and COO of a feature or product.
    • The CEO component is the vision and external focus.
    • The COO component is the operational oomph to actually get something done.
    • You want to satisfice the COO component and maximize the CEO component.
      • Even if you have perfect logistics, without vision it will produce something bland and forgettable.
    • The vision is sacred, the operations are profane.
    • The profane will taint the sacred.
    • At every point there will be an operational detail to pull you more to operations.
    • Operations is a means, not an end.
