Digital transformations are hard! But they are a necessary need in our era for any organization who wants to keep their competitive edge, adapt to changing environments, build moats against new disruptors, and grow their market share. And more complex the organization structure and ecosystem are, the more challenging said transformation, hence the need for tools and frameworks to help us.On the show today we met with Kiron Jones, Group Product Manager at Springer Nature, the world's largest academic book and journals publisher. The organization was created by a merger and acquisition of multiple publishers. This created a complex technical environment of many systems to support the business, publish the books and journals, and access the market.In addition, the entire academic publishing sector has moved into a new open access model. Where in the past, libraries had to buy subscriptions to give access to readers for the materials, these days the access to the materials is free, and the authors are the ones charged to publish. Servicing this changed model has challenged the industry to come up with new solutions for the new clients, while still supporting high quality publications.Product management in such an environment, as we learn from Kiron, is a challenging and rewarding task. The tools he and his team are using, and in some cases still on the lookout for, are helping them with stakeholder communication, prioritization and roadmapping, and so much more.Join Matt and Moshe as we chatted with Kiron about:How he got into product managementDigital and product challenges from Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A)Dealing with shifting ecosystem that changes the Product-Market Fit, the user and buyers personas, their user journey, and the tools needed to create value for themDealing with challenges when not knowing who your users areSome of the tools and methods he is using to help with these challengesOpportunities for new tools that can solve more problemsCMS as a tool both for users and for product peopleSome success and failure stories with tools adoptionHow AI can help in elevating some of the workAnd much more!You can connect with Kiron at:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kironjones/If you are in London, at local product meetingsYou can find the podcast's page, and connect with Matt and Moshe on Linkedin:Product for Product Podcast - linkedin.com/company/product-for-product-podcastMatt Green - linkedin.com/in/mattgreenproduct/Moshe Mikanovsky - linkedin.com/in/mikanovsky/Note: any views mentioned in the podcast are the sole views of our hosts and guests,  and do not represent the products mentioned in any way.Please leave us a review and feedback ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Alexis shares her journey from linguistics and computer science to product management roles at Microsoft, LinkedIn, and Lyft. At Thumbtack, she leads innovations that connect homeowners with home service professionals.Today's focus is all about redesigns.

She discusses how the dev team was given a sandbox environment with a small percentage of customers and without traditional revenue targets, allowing for bold experimentation and significant advancements in user experience without the pressure of immediate financial returns.The overarching theme of the episode revolves around executing a successful redesign. Alexis advises maintaining flexibility, refining hypotheses with careful analysis, and creating a cross-functional team encompassing design, engineering, marketing and more.

Guest: Kathryn Shih, Group Product Manager, LLM Lead in Google Cloud Security Topics: Could you give our audience the quick version of what is an LLM and what things can they do vs not do?  Is this “baby AGI” or is this a glorified “autocomplete”? Let's talk about the different ways to tune the models, and when we think about tuning what are the ways that attackers might influence or steal our data? Can you help our security listener leaders have the right vocabulary and concepts to reason about the risk of their information a) going into an LLM and b) getting regurgitated by one? How do I keep the output of a model safe, and what questions do I need to ask a vendor to understand if they're a) talking nonsense or b) actually keeping their output safe?  Are hallucinations inherent to LLMs and can they ever be fixed? So there are risks to data and new opportunities for attacks and hallucinations. How do we know good opportunities in the area given the risks?  Resources: Retrieval Augmented Generation (or go ask Bard about it) “New Paper: “Securing AI: Similar or Different?“”  blog

APIs are powering and empowering software innovation as they enable new use cases on top of existing services. Observability into API usage to answer questions like: how APIs are called, what APIs do, where APIs fail, where APIs are slow, where APIs are misused … has to be on top of mind for architects that decide to build or use APIs.In this episode we welcome Sonja Chevre, Group Product Manager at Tyk, who recently gave a captivating talk at KubeCon about using OpenTelemetry to get insights into popular API frameworks such as GraphQL. We are discussing common challenges for SREs such as that APIs often hide the status of a call behind an HTTP 200 or that debugging individual calls is really hard as details of the call are not exposed by default to telemetry data. We also cover topics such as API-led growth, API as a product as well as open standards such as OpenTelemetry and OpenAPI.
