When explaining ‘Product Management’ to people I often get this question:

“What is your favorite product?”

Current answer: “News Product is a set of methods and an ethic related to how we engage with the community. So my favorite ‘product’ is an organization capable of developing valuable and sustainable services to support community information needs. Product is about the big picture not just the puzzle pieces.”

To over-simplify three tiers of #newsproduct thinking:

Novice: Human bias distorts decision-making.

Experienced: Data is the answer.

Expert: Intuition always wins, and data is needed to train and constrain it.
