The Art of Cultivation: Bonsai, Teams, and Products🌳👥🛠️ In life and in business, growth is an art. Whether we're nurturing a bonsai tree, building a team, or developing a product, the process we follow is strikingly similar. Each phase is an iteration in a cycle of understanding, shaping, executing, and improving. Here's a more detailed look into this symbiotic relationship across these three seemingly different domains. Phase 1 - Planting the Seed: Idea & Vision 🌱🧠 Just as a bonsai begins as a seedling, so do teams and products start with an idea. Refining this idea to align with the vision is the first step, an iterative process of planning and reevaluation. Phase 2 - Shaping the Form: Strategy & Planning 📐📝 This is where our seed starts to take shape. Whether it's the bonsai's first prune, a team's assigned roles, or a product's design blueprint, strategic planning guides the growth. Expect iterations as you adapt to evolving situations. Phase 3 - Encouraging Growth: Execution & Development 📈🔨 This is the action phase, where careful nurturing, consistent work, and monitoring for alignment with the strategy are critical. Iterative review and feedback loops ensure the team, product, or bonsai tree is growing in the right direction. Phase 4 - Long-term Care: Maintenance & Improvement 🧪💡 Our bonsai, team, and product now require ongoing attention for sustainability. This is a cycle of continuous improvement, adapting from the past and present experiences, always in an iterative manner. Remember, the journey is a cycle, not a line. Embracing an iterative approach to improvement can ensure our bonsai, team, or product isn't just good, but the best it can be. After following @allenholub for a while, I strongly recommend all product influencers to follow his approach. As a token of appreciation for his work and methodology, attached one of his wise words below 👇🏾 Tweet by Allen: x.com/allenholub/sta… #IterativeApproach #ContinuousImprovement #BonsaiArt #TeamBuilding #ProductDevelopment

Topic: AI Economy | New Roles | Career Transition The rise of the AI economy has led to the emergence of many new job titles and roles, including:

#CyberSecurity | #Infrastructure | #Vulnerabilities | #Opportunities The evolution of cybersecurity breaches reflects the escalating sophistication of cyberattacks. From exploiting web application vulnerabilities in the Heartland breach to leveraging third-party access in the Target breach, attackers have constantly adapted their techniques. The sheer scale of the Yahoo breach brought attention to the importance of timely disclosure and transparency. Equifax demonstrated the criticality of patch management. SolarWinds, a highly sophisticated supply chain attack, illustrated that even the most security-conscious organizations are not immune. This history underscores the importance of a multi-faceted approach to cybersecurity, including web application security, third-party risk management, transparency, patch management, and supply chain security. Moreover, as attackers adapt, continuous evolution in security postures is indispensable.

AI-fueled Engineering Productivity Engineering productivity has historically been a thing that non-engineers (even CEOs) have danced around, since engineers (rightfully) don't want to be treated as "resources" or "heads". Strong engineering leaders have squashed any talk of measuring productivity. The typical argument has been that most metrics to measure productivity (eg lines of code written or number of pull requests) are flawed or imperfect. However, this attitude is changing with AI. I've heard CTOs rave about a 15-30% productivity improvement for engineers using tools like GitHub CoPilot (X). But it's all anecdotal. Nobody seems to truly measure engineering productivity in a way that: (a) aligns with how engineers themselves think about productivity and (b) how the business measures value (products, revenue, etc). 1. [How] should engineering productivity be measured? 2. Are there any rigorous / systematic studies being done around improvement in eng productivity due to AI? I have to assume Microsoft / Github must be super interested in proving that CoPilot does work, so they should sponsor these studies. 3. Are there startups tackling this problem? Obviously, the corollary (that will delight CFOs everywhere) is that if engineers become 15-30% more productive, this in theory means the company can reduce eng hiring by some fraction of this number, while still keeping overall productivity constant.

How to present In 2006, I helped @ericschmidt create a deck outlining Google’s strategy, for a presentation Eric was delivering to the company. It taught me a profound lesson on how to present. When I showed up to my first meeting with Eric, he asked me to visit with every product team at Google, chat with them to figure out what they were working on, and then summarize it on one slide (for each team). Easy enough, I thought. I would use 3-5 bullet points per slide. Piece of cake. I started mentally mapping things out and got ready to leave. “But”, Eric said, “I want no words on any slide”. My well-laid plans disintegrated in an instant. How was I supposed to convey the key messages from each team, without WORDS? Eric must have seen the panic on my face, and kindly gave me a hint. “Put the text in speaker notes”. “But what goes on the slides, Eric?” I continued panicking. That classic, gentle “Eric smile” fluttered on his face. “Why, images, of course!” “You mean, you want each slide to just be comprised of images?” “You got it. And use the title wisely. 7-8 words max. Let’s meet in a week to review progress.” As I left the meeting, little was I to know that this conversation would fundamentally change my view on how to deliver effective presentations. 17 years later, I still cling tightly to the following principles: 1. The larger the audience, the fewer the words on the slide. In Eric’s case, the audience was thousands of employees, so we had 0 words per slide. 2. The title does most of the heavy lifting, which means it cannot be passive. It must be action oriented. Eg: not “Subscriber retention” but “Subscribers continue to be retained strongly” or even better “Net revenue retention continues to be > 100%”. 3. Use memorable images that substantiate and give credence to the words of the title. This image is what will occupy most of the slide area, so you need to spend much of your time thinking about what picture will best get the point (made by the title) across. In some cases, it might be a customer image or logo. in other cases, a graph. In yet other cases, it could be something else entirely. For the Google presentation, one of the images that gave me the most trouble was a slide on Google Search Appliance and other Enterprise products. The title stated that these products were increasingly being used by larger customers. The team didn’t want to share customer logos broadly since some were confidential, so logos were not an option. I decided to go with a trend line on the % of searches from enterprise customers, but the person who was supposed to pull this data for me, flaked at the last minute and I had to scramble. I ended up scrambling to create a mosaic of a bunch of consumer product logos with some kind of icon that denoted large enterprises. Not my finest moment but it got the point across. 4. Use speaker notes. Like Eric said, speaker notes should contain most of the details. It puts a lot of burden on the speaker since they cannot just read off the slides. But this doesn’t deter good speakers, since they prepare dozens of times, and then again. So there you have it: my 4 principles for delivering compelling presentations to live audiences. (CAVEAT: If the presentation has to be emailed to an audience who will consume it asynchronously, that’s completely different and has different rules). How did the 2006 Google strategy presentation turn out, you ask? It went quite well, and later I got a nice thank you note from Eric. I didn’t realize at the time that I should have been the one thanking him for the once-in-a-lifetime learning opportunity.
