Saeed Khan, Ph.D., Head of the Department of Molecular Pathology at Dow diagnostic research and reference laboratory and President of the Pakistan Biological Safety Association discusses the importance and challenges of biosafety/biosecurity practices on both a local and global scale. He highlights key steps for biorisk assessment and management and stresses the importance of training, timing and technology. Ashley's Biggest Takeaways Adequate biosafety and biosecurity protocols depend on a thorough understanding of modern challenges, and scientists must be willing and able to respond to new technological threats appropriately. In the microbiology lab, the threat goes beyond the physical pathogen. Implications of genomics and cyber security must be built into biorisk management techniques, including data storage and waste management practices. Risk assessments involve evaluation of both inherent and residual risk. Inherent risk is linked to the pathogen. Residual risk varies according to the lab, equipment, employee, environment, etc. As a result, biosafety and biosecurity risks are constantly changing, and assessments must be repeated strategically and often. Khan recommended repeating a risk assessment whenever a key variable in the equation changes, i.e., new equipment, new employee, new pathogen. He also recommended (at minimum) conducting routine risk assessments every 6 months, or twice a year. Featured Quotes: “We need to have basic biosafety and biosecurity to stay away from these bugs and the modern challenges, like cyber biosecurity and genomics. These are the new areas, which are potential threats for the future, and where we need to train our researchers and students.” “Starting from simple hand washing or hand hygiene, the basic things we use are gloves, goggles and PPE to protect the workers, the staff and the patient from getting infected from the environment, laboratory or hospitals. These are the basic things, and it's very crucial, because if one is not using gloves in the lab or not wearing the lab coat, he or she may get infected from the sample, and the patient can get infected from the physician and doctors or nurse if they are not following the basic biosafety rules. These [things] are routinely important. Every day we should practice this.” “But there are [also] new challenges. Particularly in the microbiology lab, we [used to] think that once we killed the bacteria, then it's fine. But nowadays, it's not the way we should think about it. Though you kill the bacteria practically, it still has a sequence, [which] we call the genome, and if you have that information with you, you theoretically have the potential to recreate that pathogen… that can be used or maybe misused as well.” “[Working with] scripts of pathogens, like smallpox or the polioviruses, we call this synthetic biology. Different scientists are doing it for the right purposes, like for production of vaccines, to find new therapeutics, to understand the pathology of the diseases. But on [the other hand]—we call it dual use research of concern (DURC)—the same can be misused as well. That's why it's very important to be aware of the bugs that we are working with, and the potential of that pathogen or microbe, to the extent that can be useful or otherwise.” “So, we should be aware of the new concern of the technology, synthetic biology and DURC. These are new concepts—cyber, biosecurity and information security [are all] very much important these days. You cannot be relaxed being in the microbiology lab. Once we have identified a pathogen, declared a result to the patient and the physician, and it's been treated, we [still] need to be worried about waste management—that we discard that waste properly and we have proper inventory control of our culture. It should be safe in the locker or on in the freezers and properly locked, so we should not be losing any single tube of the culture, otherwise it may be misused.” Risk Assessment “The best word that you have used is risk assessment. So, it should gage the severity of the issue. We should not over exaggerate the risk, and we should not undermine the risk. Once the risk assessment been made, we can proceed.” “Right from the beginning of touching a patient or a sample of the patient until the end of discarding the sample, that is called biorisk management. It's a complete science that we need to be aware of—not in bits and pieces. Rather a comprehensive approach should be adopted, and each and every person in the organization should be involved. Otherwise, we may think [we are] doing something good, but someone else may spoil the whole thing, and it will be counterproductive at the end.” “We should involve each and every person working with us and the lab, and we should empower them. They should feel ownership that they are working with us, and they are [as] responsible as we are. So, this the whole process needs to be properly engaged. People must be engaged, and they should be empowered, and they should be responsible.” “Each and every lab has different weaknesses and strengths of their own, which play an important role in the risk assessment.” “There is inherent risk, which is linked with the pathogen, and there is another thing we call residual risk. So, residual risk everywhere and varies. Though the inherent risk may be the same, the residual risk is based on the training of the person, the lab facility that is available, the resources that labs have and the potential threats from the environment.” “It's not usually possible that you do a risk assessment every day. So, when you have different factors involving a new pathogen in your lab, you have new equipment in your in your lab, or some new employee in your lab—[a new] variable factor that is involved—you should [perform] the risk assessment. Otherwise, [a routine risk assessment] should [be done] twice a year, after 6 months.” “Training is important, and response time is very much crucial. And different technology plays a vital role, but the lack of technology should not be an excuse for not responding. There is always an alternative on the ground that you may do the risk assessment. And within the given resources and facility, we should mimic the technology and respond to any outbreaks or disease within our given resources.” Links for the Episode ASM Guidelines for Biosafety in Teaching Laboratories Pakistan Biological Safety Association Training to be a Biosafety Professional (video) Take the MTM listener survey!

Melissa Perri is the renowned author of "Escaping the Build Trap" and a well-known product consultant and educator. She has worked for a long time with Denise Tilles, another seasoned product leader, with whom she has been evangelising Product Operations to help scale product companies effectively. They recently collaborated on a book, coincidentally called "Product Operations", and we spoke all about the story behind the book and the themes within it. Saeed Khan and I are planning a new course - please give us your feedback! The relationship between product management and sales teams is traditionally tricky, and a common complaint from B2B PMs. Saeed Khan and I are looking to help with this with an online course and we'd love your feedback on your relationship with sales. This will help shape the course and, if you want to take part when the course is ready, we'll give you a special discount. Please fill in the survey here. Thanks! Episode highlights: 1. Product Operations is about helping product managers make faster, better-quality decisions It's important to dispel the myth of multi-armed product managers who can just do everything. There's too much for everyone to do! This creates barriers to doing great product management work and pulls product managers away from doing the real, value-add product management work that they're judged on. 2. There are three pillars of product operations... The three pillars are ways to think about how to organise enablement. They are "Business & Data Insights", "Customer & Market Insights" and "Process and Practices". They are all the foundation of good product decision-making, and all companies will have a certain level of maturity already. 3. ... But you don't need to build all the pillars all at once You don't need to fix everything at once. If you already have good capabilities in one or more areas, fix the ones that you don't have good capabilities in! You don't need to boil the ocean, just find the biggest gaps and opportunities to improve, and start to work on them. 4. Process shouldn't be seen as a dirty word There's such a thing as too much process but, even if you don't call it process or try to define it, all work involves a process. It's important to have people to oversee the process at scale, prevent duplication or rework, and make sure that process is right-sized rather than ever-expanding. 5. The first step is being honest about your current state There are plenty of ways to go with product operations as you scale, but the most important thing is being really honest with yourself about what your most important limiting factors are, what your product managers are spending time on and what's going to work for you. Check out "Product Operations" "Many companies want to reap the benefits of economies of scale that comes with being a product-led company. As our businesses change shape to focus more on software, so do our ways of working. We need to make sure we're breaking down these silos of information and capabilities that arise at scale. To react quickly and set great Product Strategies, leaders and team members alike need access to high-quality data and a process to implement their decisions." Check it out on Amazon or the book website. Check out "Escaping the Build Trap" "To stay competitive in today's market, organizations need to adopt a culture of customer-centric practices that focus on outcomes rather than outputs. Companies that live and die by outputs often fall into the "build trap," cranking out features to meet their schedule rather than the customer's needs. In this book, Melissa Perri explains how laying the foundation for great product management can help companies solve real customer problems while achieving business goals. " Check it out on Amazon.

A product without a vision is like driving a car at night with lights switched off. Saeed and I discussed the importance of having a vision, the trouble if you do not have one, how to setup a vision, where it sits besides objectives, strategies etc. and a lot more. You can find Saeed on LinkedIn.
This podcast features Dr. Saeed Khan, Associate Professor at Wayne State University and an ILN fellow. He explores the important topic 'Can Muslims Save Democracy? Muslim Minority Communities Resisting Illiberalism,' drawing insights from his presentation at the ILN 10th International Conference on Peace and Prosperity in Muslim Majority Countries and Beyond, held in Kuala Lumpur on 5th-6th September 2023."
Tom and Saeed Khan talk about the underlying causes of product managers making things that don't solve customer problems.

She's passionate about helping startup founders get their branding right, and enabling them to identify their own "zones of genius" where they win. She does this through her consultancy, Zeewy Brands, as well as her book, "Ready, Launch, Brand". We spoke all about the ins and outs of branding, and why startup founders need to rethink marketing. A message from this episode's sponsor This episode is sponsored by Succeeding in B2B Product Management, a cohort-based, live course that Saeed Khan and I are launching on Maven in January.

Branding is not just a fancy logo and a cool company name The true definition of a brand is that it is the sum of all experiences that customers have with an organisation over time. Brands don't live in the minds of the company, or its founders. They live in the minds of their customers. 2. Marketing is not just a widget, it's a fundamental cost of running your business, and results take time Some startup founders either don't bother with marketing at all, or they give up as soon as the first thing they try doesn't work. But, you need to start early and invest for the long term. There are so many brands competing for mindshare and you need to make sure that you remain part of that in an attention-poor market. 3. Your company website is your front door, and you need to explain clearly why people should care about you It can be pretty common for companies to either ignore their website entirely or try to cram as much information as possible on there and overwhelm potential customers. Your website is likely to be the first touchpoint that a potential customer has with your brand, and you need to clearly and concisely explain why they should care about you. 4. Not everyone has done this work upfront, but it's important to meet people where they are Yes, it's easier to intercept avoidable problems before they occur, but there are plenty of good conversations you can have whatever the situation within the company. It's never too late to try to make a difference, and you can find that the entire company will get energised and rally to the cause once you've put the work in to define what the cause really is. 5. People, and organisations, have Zones of Genius and they should focus and stay in their lane It can be really common for founders and solopreneurs to try to solve every problem for everyone because they're interested in everything and they think that it will increase their chances of success. But, if you can find the thing you're uniquely good at and focus your efforts there then you have a much higher chance of sticking in someone's mind and being their go-to solution for that specific problem. Buy "Ready, Launch, Brand" "You may be familiar with the Silicon Valley expression about the iterative approach to software development, "We're learning to fly the plane while we're building it." If so, think of a startup―with all its moving parts, phases, and personalities―as flying a plane, while you're building it, booking passengers, marketing the airline, interviewing co-pilots, and serving coffee.

Host Nancy Derringer talks with attorneys Steve Fishman, Bill Seikaly and Joel Sklar, community and labor activist Barb Ingalls, Beverly Watts, president of BME Consulting and former director of Wayne County Public Services Department and Deadline Detroit co-founder Allan Lengel. (Regular host Saeed Khan is on the road.)They talk about the brutal Israel-Hamas war and what comes next; Trump stays on the ballot in Michigan; The Supreme Court adopts code of conduct; Has this Oklahoma senator lost his mind? U-M Coach Jim Harbaugh gives up the fight; how big a deal is this sign stealing? Schmuck of the Week.
We all love good strategy stories. What is better than good strategy stories? The ones that are simple and that we can derive lessons to apply elsewhere. In this episode, Saeed Khan shares his stories and thoughts collected over 25 years of product management experience. Different from other episodes, in this one, we started with the core elements of strategy, which Saeed simplifies as building hypotheses on how you can achieve certain objectives. Making some mapping to the Playing to Win framework, he simplified the result of strategy as a set of Goals connected with Measures, which are connected to Actions. We also reviewed some examples so you can apply these simple steps to your products.
In this episode, we delve into the travels of Sir Michael Palin, a Monty Python star who has gone onto establish himself as a talented actor, writer and presenter. He joins hosts Saeed Khan to discuss his latest journey to Iraq where he got a sense of what life is like in a region of the world that has witnessed bloodshed and destruction.
Gabrielle Bufrem is a product leader and product coach who comes highly recommended by Sir Marty Cagan himself. She's passionate about developing product managers and product leaders, as well as helping them be true strategic partners to the business. We spoke about product vision, what to do when it's not there, the importance of product principles and much more. A quick message from Saeed Khan and me. My former podcast guest, Saeed Khan and I are thinking of putting together a B2B Product Management cohort course on Maven. Our goal is to help B2B PMs make peace with the differences between B2B product management and much of the classic product literature, and enable them to be true business partners rather than stuck in a remorseless feature factory. We're assessing interest right now, so if this sounds good, please fill in our course questionnaire. Thanks! Episode highlights: 1. A product strategy is the highest leverage artefact any product leader can have But it's also one of the hardest to do. It's serious, serious work, which is why so many product teams just end up with a list of tasks, or a "pizza strategy" (pepperoni! chicken! M&Ms!) 2. A lot of problems stem from being people pleasers No one wants to say "no" and people can suffer from the fear of missing out. People can be afraid to take a stance. But, it's essential to narrow your focus to the absolute essentials if you want to make any progress at all. 3. It's hard to push back on pre-agreed feature requests if you don't have a plan Product leaders need a deep understanding of their users and customers, but also of the wider business context. You need to be conscious of what the company (and the board) wants. 4. Sometimes companies don't have strategies either It's easy to get dragged into a neverending feature list, prioritising whatever the next thing is. Product leaders need to work with wider leadership to identify broad goals, how they can get there & what the 3-5 year plan is. 5. Product managers are there to represent the business UX designers are there to look after the users and the engineering team is there to look after the tech. It's absolutely essential for PMs to be trusted business partners if they want to make a big impact. Contact Gabrielle You can connect with Gabi on Twitter or on LinkedIn. Or, check out her website.
Host Nancy Derringer speaks with attorneys Steve Fishman and Joel Sklar, pollster Ed Sarpolus and Deadline Detroit co-founder Allan Lengel.

Ron DeSantis's chances in 2024; the Supreme Court and the abortion pill; Trump's endorsements; crazy shootings in the U.S. and Schmuck of the Week.
Saeed Khan joins to discuss five dysfunctions common across product teams. These include:1. Poor Job Definitions2. Under-skilled Product Managers3. Poor Processes4. Unclear Objectives5. Weak Product Leadership
Host Nancy Derringer chats with guests, Detroit Free Press columnist M.L. Elrick, 910 AM host Adolph Mongo, attorney Steve Fishman and Deadline Detroit co-founder Allan Lengel. (Regular host Saeed Khan is traveling)They talk about the Donald Trump collectables; whether the Crumbley parents should still be behind bars; the crazy border; big donors at MSU and UM and nominees for Schmuck of the Week.
Saeed Khan is a product consultant, coach, speaker and founder who wants to give all of us product managers some tough love. In a long career, he's seen the same five dysfunctions across multiple product organisations and wants us to all be honest with ourselves so that we can have a chance to fix them. I actually interviewed Saeed in one of my first podcast episodes. It has a certain "Simpsons Season 1" quality about it but, if you're curious, feel free to check it out! A message from this episode's sponsor - One Knight Consulting This episode is sponsored by One Knight Consulting. Yes, yes, that's me. But listen up. I started One Knight Consulting because I have seen variations of the same problems plaguing growing startups, scale-ups and larger, digitally transforming companies again & again. These problems can cause friction between teams, slow product development, lacklustre sales, and ultimately lead to constrained growth. If you're scaling your product organisation, struggling with cross-team alignment or having trouble executing your product strategy to support your business goals, book a call with me and we can discuss your needs and how I can help. Episode highlights: It's important to be honest about the state of product management It's not about being negative or blaming "bad product managers" for everything. But, there are repeated dysfunctions across a large number of companies and we can't fix them if we ignore them. Product managers suffer from poor job definitions, which makes it hard to succeed Bad job specs are a symptom of a deeper truth: Not many people outside product management really understand it, or what "cross-functional" working means at all. We should avoid being "glue". There are lots of smart product managers out there but they don't all have the skills they need Product management is the ultimate "school of hard knocks" trade & many people practising it speak only in the theoretical/struggle in different contexts. PMs need good coaching. "Process" is too often seen as a dirty word. You don't need too much but you need some There needs to be some level of rigour within PM teams to help set them up for success. Doing everything ad hoc gives you ad hoc results. Don't overegg it, but don't underegg it either. Our objectives are often unclear, and we need to do our best to connect to the company's goals We need to be able to define leading measures of success and connect our efforts to actual business success. PMs need to have a far higher level of interest in business outcomes. Product leadership is often weak & is needed to fix all of the dysfunctions It's better to have a former PM and coach them into a leader than to have a non-product businessperson brought in. Someone with good pattern recognition who can bring everything together is essential.

From guest, Saeed Khan: "A lot of companies struggle with "roadmaps" that aren't actually strategic roadmaps, but are a delivery plan masquerading as a roadmap. The diagram tries to show how a roadmap contributes to a release, but the release also includes more tactical items such as roadmap aligned sales requests, customer issues, engineering needs etc. I'd love to hear your questions as there's a lot packed into this one slide."

Craig is joined by Saeed Khan, Senior Lecturer in Near East and Asian Studies at Wayne State University. The two discuss what's happening as the U.S. tries to evacuate it's personnel and many of those that aided the U.S. during it's 20 year war in Afghanistan. The hectic scene is reminiscent for many of the fall of Saigon in 1975 as the U.S. exited Vietnam. Many are questioning why this is happening, when the U.S. had a lot of time to plan its exit. Also, what signals is the Taliban sending about how it intends to proceed in governing the country. Will women's rights truly be respected? Will amnesty be granted to those that cooperated with the U.S.? Lastly, will the Taliban honor its pledge to allow the U.S. to safely finish its evacuation?
In this hour Stephen Henderson speaks with Mayor Mike Duggan about a third dose of the COVID vaccine for Detroiters, the 2020 census results and climate infrastructure.

Craig's guest is Saeed Khan, Senior Lecturer in Near East and Asian Studies at Wayne State University. They discuss the end of the U.S. involvement in Afghanistan. After 20 years, and over 3 trillion dollars spent, what did the U.S. accomplish? Who will fill the void created by the U.S. exit? Will the Taliban continue to gain territory, and if they do, will they attain credibility on the international diplomatic scene?
In this hour Stephen Henderson takes a look at what’s happening in the Middle East - first with Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, who is one of the most outspoken critics of U.S. policy in the region, and who has strong family ties in Palestine.
