Editor's Notes

  1. Big idea vs. small idea.
  2. Something you can sell, because it provides value and people want to buy it. Something that provides value and people want to buy.
  3. Positioning – hypothesis – translation statement between market needs and our goal revenue.
  4. Positioning = Hypothesis,
  5. It’s not about documentation – it’s about interaction;
  6. - Haven’t you’ve been called a “Program Manager”? Why don’t you build some programs? Do you want me to do all of this? No. Building successful product is not your job. It is the entire organization job to build successful products. Your job is to get them all aligned and enabled to build successful product.
  7. This is your job!
