Last night a thunderstorm, did not sleep well, early to have some headaches, a morning but still deal with a lot of things. Now is also drowsy, lying on the table and can't sleep, simply to write something.
It's been half a year since we decided to make the product, but it's only one months before I put my energy into it. Bought some books, reported a course, now read a book and a half, the course of two, the work has not been completed.
Now it feels good, at least it's already in the door. Know what is the product, what is the product life cycle, do the product roughly what process, know the product positioning and demand analysis, market and competitor analysis from where to start, the user-centric thinking more and more profound, know some product managers commonly used tools, know to deal with interpersonal relationships, know to expand their horizons, Open your mind. Some specific skills, probably still need to continue to learn, but the most important, or to continue to explore and accumulate themselves.
Not long ago with the boss put forward the idea of their own products, although the Department of Internal management is more chaotic, but still give themselves a little chance, the rest is their own efforts.
Now be pulled into the system revision of the team, full of fun. Early is doing some old system business sharing, as a self-service machine in charge of the business, also do a lot of relevant parts of the share, by the way, some of their own back-end system optimization recommendations. The team has two on-the-job product manager, there was a bit of concern, if the demand collection and analysis by them to do, I can also start what, is it just to share the end of it? Fortunately, the two products, a self-proclaimed too busy, a new to the business is extremely unfamiliar, at present, the initiative is relatively deficient, this is also left me the opportunity to steal hi.
So, I put all the existing back-end system carefully looked over, and carefully looked at the predecessors of the business to share documents, and then combined with their own knowledge, as well as some of their own ideas, sorted out the backstage business, and the discussion group. We all liked each other and let me have a detailed share in the next meeting.
Although the background of the overall business to organize a general context, but in fact, for each module of the specific business process, as well as the real needs of each department, I am still confused. So I told the boss, I will go to the various departments to do a person-to-face user interviews, comb their work flow, do the initial demand collection, by the way they listen to the existing back-end system of the spit groove and suggestions. The boss agreed, "OK, you can collect the demand, but we don't necessarily listen to them." Hey, that's absolutely certainly.
Next, I focus on the different businesses involved in each department, designed a number of questions that need to be asked during the interview, repeatedly pondering, finalizing, printing and binding. Then, contacted the Operation center of D Childe (the company two office points, our side only research and development and products, D Childe Identity Special, easy to coordinate the department colleagues, please he help again suitable but), a few words to finalize the meeting time.
And then, hopefully next week everything goes well and something gains. Come on!
A lunch break when you can't sleep.
