Summary

In an era of full opportunity where some companies are transforming growth, others appear stuck in neutral or are at a crossroads. Their leadership teams are frustrated, tired of detours and dead-ends. Many are ambitious companies with good options. However the road forward is blocked by the operational ‘in the business’ work required to keep the lights on. Yet other leadership teams create space for time to work ‘on the business.’ They reject the status quo. They foresee new opportunities and new ways of doing things. They step outside their comfort zone and look beyond today’s horizon. They seem to have a roadmap. These Growth Transformers build on foundations of ambition, disruption and execution. Yet they recognize that transformation is risky. They balance the urgency of today against the importance of the future. They understand process, timing and sequence. They use external signals to guide them beyond the fog of day-to-day combat. They have an innate sense that if they transform too early, they will be too far ahead – too late and they will fail. Their dilemma is dramatized by the urgency of their own ambitions. Business Growth TransformerTM encompasses five steps, which bring clarity on direction and serve as a catalyst to make solid decisions. It delivers a committed and proven plan for transformational growth. This eBook takes you through these five common steps and challenges you to become a Growth Transformer yourself.

    Step Out From The Shadows - How...

    As I walked into my new office, on that cold Monday morning, I realised there was only a tiny corner where I wasn’t visible, through the internal windows, to everyone else in the main open-plan office. I shut the office door and manoeuvred myself so I couldn’t be seen. Taking deep breaths to try to stop my heart leaping out of my chest, I asked myself … “Oh God, what have I done?” 
At that moment I knew I wasn’t prepared … I wasn’t ready and I wasn’t experienced enough to be doing the job I had been given. The previous Friday I had left my desk in the open-plan office and today I was in the corner office. I knew nothing had changed over the weekend and any minute now someone would notice. 
That was over twenty years ago but I haven’t forgotten that moment.  
I have got used to the feeling of not being entirely confident … 
I now recognise it as the precursor of great opportunities to come. The feeling of fear and excitement are the same, it is just what you label them that makes the outcome different.  
My team of professional actors at ‘Partners With You’ have taught me their techniques to look and sound more confident. And I have trained with a number of experts working in the field of Neuroscience, to better understand what is actually going on in our brains and how to affect our behaviours and reactions. 
Combined with this I have a lifetime of clients and colleagues who have taught me as much as I have been able to show them and of course the myriad of people whose paths have crossed mine. And to all of them I am grateful.  
This book is an amalgamation of everything I have learnt and I’d love to share my knowledge, experience and expertise with you!

  • What Product Managers Need to Know About World-Class Product Development - How Product Managers Can Create Successful Products - cover

    What Product Managers Need to...

    As product managers it is our responsibility to create products that our customers will want and that will end up being profitable for our companies. It turns out that this is no easy task. Identifying what a customer really wants and then turning that into a feature that can be delivered to a customer is hard work. The key to being successful is to understand exactly what goes into world-class product development. 

 
What You'll Find Inside: 

HOW CAN PRODUCT MANAGERS PICK THE RIGHT TECHNOLOGY FOR OUR PRODUCTS? 
HOW YAHOO PRODUCT MANAGERS ARE KICKING GOOGLE’S BUTT
FAST PRODUCT MANAGEMENT LESSONS FROM A PORSCHE 911
WHAT EVERY PRODUCT MANAGER NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT THE HADOOP DATABASE SOLUTION


 
Every product uses some form of technology no matter if the technology is embedded in the product or if it is used to create the product. Product managers play a key role in selecting the correct technologies to use.  Any product requires the company to make an investment in it. One aspect of this investment that is important to a product manager is the cost of capital. That money will be spent creating a product team. As product managers we need to realize that we'll have team members of different ages and we need to know how best to manage them all. 
 
As we look around different industries, we look for examples that we can follow when developing products. The competition between Yahoo and Google in the area of financial reporting provides us with some good examples of what to do and what not to do.  Because creating a new product is such a risky undertaking, we need to look for ways to hedge our bets. One thing that can reduce our risk is to copy something that someone else has already done. We need to keep in mind the amount of risk that will be involved. 
 
Innovation is the key to creating new products that your customers will want. Examples from companies like Porsche can provide us with suggestions on how to go about doing this. The plan that we create to deliver a new product is just that – a plan. We need to make sure that we take action despite what the plan says in order to make sure that our product is delivered on time. New technologies, such as the Hadoop database, may play a key role in our ability to accomplish this.
