Measure what matters then nobody has to guess what may work. Whether it's revenue, retention, or defect rate, data is the key to controlling product development.<\/p> \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Achieving product-market fit is a process of countless small questions, experiments, and decisions.

Once a product performs in the market it becomes a cost centre to be managed. The 3rd party lens reminds management its strategic drivers and the measures needed to reach that position.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Potential starting points – for engaging teams and their managers<\/h3>

Decide who are your real clients<\/h4>

Many teams mistake enablers or other departments for clients, since that’s where their money comes from.\u00a0 They are both stakeholders, but it’s the final, external, consumer that’s your client. A fair test of the true client is there’s no longer a business if you remove them. This concept is tough to grasp if you’ve always called intermediaries clients, which is why it’s a great topic to get people engaged at the start. Remember, it matters less what you decide, than you have a discussion, explore your disagreements, then reach a shared definition.<\/p>

Determine what specific value your team brings to the greater organisation<\/h4>

This is also harder than it seems as people think in terms of role or department function. If you are a testing \/ QA team, then your value could be to protect users from failure. Finding bugs may be one of the ways you do that, it relates to HOW, not WHAT you do. Remember, value is what someone gets in return for what they give up (not always money).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Anti-patterns to beware of<\/h3>

We’re so special, we can skip the first steps<\/h4>

You can take all the shortcuts you like, but it will take you longer to see measurable results if you do. If you want to be smart and accelerate your transition, go straight to the place of greatest learning, personally. That’s what step 1 is all about, increasing awareness and understanding.\u00a0<\/p>

Delegating change<\/h4>

The cartoon classic “I don’t want to change, I want all of you to change” makes the point that employees pay more attention to the actions <\/b>of their leaders than their words.<\/p>
