True success lies not in products or technologies, but in the power of people. Why do some companies have loyal, cult-like followings while others blend into oblivion? If we look around, we begin to notice that traditional marketing is losing its edge and many entrepreneurs are struggling to stand out.  It becomes clear that a thriving community can be your biggest asset. This breakthrough has launched Lloyed Lobo to new heights and led him to coin the phrase: " If you build a community, you won't become a commodity!". Lloyed joins the show to reinforce this message.  Lloyed is an entrepreneur, podcast host and community builder.  As a young refugee in Kuwait, he witnessed the strength of community in evacuating the population to safety. His new book, From Grassroots to Greatness -13 Rules to Build Iconic Brands with Community Led Growth has topped Amazon's new release charts in a number of categories. This book dives into what Lloyed learned after talking to 1,000+ leaders and looking behind the growth of obscure ideas that went on to become enduring companies like Apple, Atlassian, CrossFit, Harley-Davidson, HubSpot, and more.

Throughout human history, sacred texts and religious congregations have epitomized the enduring power of collective belief. This sense of community, united by a shared doctrine, forms a bond that transcends boundaries, emphasizing not just individual salvation but a collective spirit that uplifts and unifies. Similarly, while a SaaS company is distinct from a religion, it thrives on the relationships it fosters within its user base, emphasizing connections, shared experiences, and the collective value they bring.Lloyed Lobo of Boast.AI, having delved into the successes of iconic companies like Apple, Atlassian, and more, offers insights into harnessing community-driven growth in his book, "From Grassroots to Greatness."

Building a community fosters genuine connections, creating a platform where customers don't just use your product, but actively champion it. This human-centric approach positions companies at the forefront of consumer minds, forging deeper ties and ensuring longevity in a rapidly evolving market landscape.Value-driven Content Creation: Start by generating content that is both educational and beneficial to your target audience. This builds trust and positions your brand as a thought leader in your domain.Engaging Forums and Groups: Create spaces, be it online forums or social media groups, where your community can engage, ask questions, and share their experiences. This not only facilitates peer-to-peer learning but also provides invaluable feedback.Exclusive Events and Webinars: Host events that offer exclusive insights, previews, or discussions. This not only fosters a sense of belonging but also gives members a reason to stay engaged and involved.Collaborative Product Development: Involve community members in beta testing, feedback rounds, and even ideation sessions. This not only improves your product but makes them feel valued and integral to your brand's success.Community Ambassadors: Identify and nurture active members to become ambassadors. They can further evangelize your brand, offering a more authentic voice that resonates with potential customers.Feedback Mechanisms: Implement clear channels through which community members can provide feedback on products, services, or even community activities. This ensures continuous improvement and adaptability.While the tactics to cultivate community-led growth can vary, the underlying principle remains consistent: value your community members as co-collaborators, not just consumers. Their collective wisdom, enthusiasm, and advocacy can drive your brand to new heights. As you venture into this realm, remember that genuine engagement and mutual respect are the keystones of any thriving community. Embrace them, and watch your brand flourish in ways you'd never imagined.

At some point in every tech employee's career, one likely comes into contact with an Atlassian product, from Jira to Confluence to Trello. Scott co-founded Atlassian back in 2001 along with his university friend, Mike Cannon-Brookes, to help unleash the potential of every team. The iconic collaboration company now has over 240,000 customers around the globe and a market value over $40 billion. Scott shares why insatiable curiosity was key to their success, how Atlassian has helped the Australian tech community thrive, and why they've adopted a work-from-anywhere policy and use offices solely for intentional togetherness.

Kyle Byrd is a seasoned product strategy and uncertainty leader with a background in industrial design. He was the former Head of Product at Atlassian, where he led the product strategy for Jira Align, a leading enterprise agile planning software. He is also the founder of the Uncertainty Project, a community initiative aimed at exploring decision-making models to manage uncertainty. In this episode of the Unlearn Podcast, Kyle joins Barry O'Reilly to share his unique perspective on embracing uncertainty and problem-solving, drawing from his experiences in transitioning from hardware to software products. He discusses the importance of deep domain expertise and the value of diverse perspectives in decision-making processes.An Unconventional FoundationKyle shares his journey from industrial design to software product management "I'm forever thankful that I got an art degree in college, which was industrial design. It really forces you to unlearn that there is a right answer in a very uncomfortable way," he says. Kyle's unique perspective on problem-solving has shaped his career, leading him to view the world from a "problem to problem perspective" rather than an "answer to answer perspective." This mindset has been instrumental in his work, particularly in his transition from hardware to software, where he found the flexibility to match solutions to problems. His passion for customer engagement and problem-solving was evident during his time at Agile Craft, a startup that was later acquired by Atlassian and transformed into Jira Align, Atlassian's fastest-selling product. "Product management is one of those worlds where it is all about finding problems, finding fixes, unlocking the next problem,” Barry adds, “and it's an endless iteration of that.”The Art of Business, Choices, and WarBeing deeply invested in a problem is crucial to find its solution, Kyle shares. During his transition from a hardware-focused role to a software-focused one, Kyle found himself becoming "hyper obsessed" with understanding why organizations work the way they do. This obsession led him to spend his weekends reading and learning about organizational structures and decision-making processes. Growing up in a military town and being fascinated by the structure of large organizations like the military, he found that many models and techniques used in business have their roots in military strategies. Concepts like wargaming, scenario planning, and Commander's Intent have found their way into business strategy and decision-making, particularly in large, complex organizations.Looking AheadKyle shares his excitement about the future of The Uncertainty Project, particularly in translating the theoretical aspects of decision-making under uncertainty into practical applications that can impact the way people work and make decisions. He encourages listeners to engage with the content on The Uncertainty Project's website and to think about how the concepts discussed can be applied within their own organizations.Read full show notes at BarryO'Reilly.comResourcesKyle Byrd on the Web | LinkedIn

“As a product manager, I know that product is never the end goal, right? The end goal is value to the customer. And that comes again with a huge people problem or an opportunity, to put it differently. How do I make my people customer-obsessed?” In today's episode of the SAFe Business Agility Podcast, Adam talks to Natalia Baryshnikova, head of product at Atlassian, about customer obsession, starting with the relevance of an intern's perspective. The two also discuss topics including parallels between art and digital transformation, the importance of value stream management, and highlights from the Atlassian product roadmap. Natalia also shares her recommendation for listeners around the million-dollar question.

In this episode, we delve into the world of design and facilitation with our guest, Ben Crothers, who brings over 20 years of experience in the field. Ben shares his journey from being a designer to becoming a facilitator, driven by his desire to improve the often lackluster experience of design critique sessions. We explore the importance of intentional facilitation, the need for questioning the status quo, and the role of visuals in creating better moments and driving productive meetings. Join us as we uncover the power of design in shaping not just how we work, but also how we collaborate and build a better world.What You Will Learn:The spirit of design: How design seeks to create a better world and improve collaboration.The evolution of Ben's role: How he stumbled into facilitation through redesigning design critique sessions.The impact of intentional facilitation: How being intentional in meeting design can transform the way teams collaborate and achieve outcomes.Overcoming resistance to change: Encouraging individuals to question established meeting norms and create new approaches that drive productivity.The importance of visuals: How incorporating visuals, such as graphic recording and facilitation, can enhance understanding, spark creativity, and facilitate group decision-making.Empowering individuals with simple drawing skills: Exploring the benefits of drawing to communicate ideas effectively and solve problems collaboratively.About Ben Crothers:Ben has been a facilitator for over 15 years, and a designer for longer than that.

Cybersecurity & Privacy with Ganesh Krishnan and Punit Bhatia in The FIT4Privacy Podcast E088 S4  We all care about the security of our data, especially in a world where cyber-attacks are becoming more and more sophisticated making us a little more vulnerable. That's what we'll be discussing with our guest today, to get more insight on the subject. Watch this podcast about cybersecurity and privacy with Ganesh Krishnan and Punit Bhatia.      KEY CONVERSATION POINTS    Difference between cybersecurity and security  Data Protection and Cybersecurity  Scalability of the security organization  Challenges of the cybersecurity landscape  ABOUT THE GUEST   Meet Ganesh Krishnan, a cybersecurity superhero with over 25 years of experience protecting the digital world from cyber threats. As a two-time founder with a track record of success at some of the world's top tech companies, he's earned a reputation as a thought leader at the forefront of cybersecurity. Now at the helm of Anzenna, his latest security startup, he's out to revolutionize the industry by making cybersecurity accessible to every employee, not just the security team.    Ganesh first realized his passion for digital security in college, working in the Purdue University cybersecurity lab. After earning his master's in Computer Science in 1997, he immediately got to work in the industry. Over the next two decades he worked his way to top-level security and engineering roles at companies like Yahoo!, LinkedIn, and Atlassian, as well landing a spot on the Forbes Technology Council.     In 2017 Ganesh launched his first company, an AI-powered cybersecurity startup called Avid Secure, which was acquired after only 18 months. But despite his success, he wasn't content to rest on his laurels. He realized that in order to meet the challenges that lie ahead in the field of cybersecurity, the industry needed a paradigm shift. So he launched a new company, Anzenna, with a simple yet powerful goal: to reimagine cybersecurity by empowering every employee with simple and effective security tools. They may be just getting started, but if Ganesh's past performance is any indicator, the world of digital security is about to change forever.     ABOUT THE HOST   Punit Bhatia is one of the leading privacy experts who works independently and has worked with professionals in over 30 countries.
