" Give a s**t about your topic. If you’re not trying to change something, why are you on stage? "

" How do you influence bosses who don’t understand design, product, or technology? That’s a key challenge. "

" Grouping new features into buckets helps teams prepare for different types of product work appropriately. "

" Leadership needs to design workflows that favor hybrid vigor instead of ambiguous relationships that frustrate everyone. "

" I wrote the book because people have a lot of questions about how to become a product manager or how to work with product managers or what is product. "

" When something good happens, I want to name the person who did it and say yes, they passed through me. When something bad happens, I say let me and my team go look into it. "

" SAFe often turns UX into just digital or visual designers, which is wasteful and marginalizes valuable skills. "
