Pete Anderson’s Post

Pretty darn cool gift from Teresa Torres

There are times in the evolution of building a practice that feel like Mile Markers. Today I had the opportunity to watch a portion of my team deliver quality work to an engaged and trusting client - all directly tied to the unique point of view that Turnberry brings to the Product space. Couldn’t be more proud of, and grateful for, both these people, and our shared client. #gratefuldude #theturnberryway #businessagility #productops #turnberrysolutions #mindsetfirsttacticssecond #humancenteredchange #cheers Adam Jennison, Kevin H.

Last week I had the opportunity to help facilitate some in-person Product Strategy working sessions for two-and-a-half days in Des Moines. My takeaways? I miss being in the trenches with other people more consistently! It was a blast to see a group of 35 fully engaged and to see light bulbs 💡 go on as people worked directly with their cross-functional peers. No RACI’s, just teams working together to solve problems. #prettysurethatsmylovelanguage Big thanks to Ti Mougne for being my partner in crime. :) (You can see her facilitating off in the distance) #gratefuldude #roadwarrior #turnberrysolutions #productmanagement #businessagility #projecttoproduct

Couldn’t be more proud of this dude. Beyond grateful that we get to have him on our team. Thx for being you, Kevin!

Jenny is an industry and thought leader in the Product Ops space. If your environment is complex (which most are) you should absolutely sign up for her upcoming presentation. You'll be thankful you did. Product on. pba. #gratefuldude #productoperations #pragmaticadvice #turnberryexpernetwork #productmanagement #businessagility

In this week's White Paper, Creg Schumann does an outstanding job of laying out the value of Model-Based Product Discovery by sharing both a variety of models, and the practical client impact of those models on both Alignment and Speed. (example: An organization of 30 teams moving their Cycle Time from 64 weeks down to 11!) https://lnkd.in/g3QVbH26 Creg's thoughts will be powerful for you regardless of whether or not you're looking for a consulting partner. Hope you enjoy the read and feel free to reach out if it strikes a chord and/or you have questions. At Turnberry Solutions, we apply these concepts with our clients in a variety of ways: > Embedded Product Coaching > Custom Product Development (both on and other shore) > Turnberry Labs (Innovative co-creation with our clients) Big thanks to Pete Fleming, Adam Jennison, Kevin H. Sakamoto, Lindsay Bennett, Ti Mougne, and Josh Roberts for their peer reviews! And a gigantic thanks to Creg for his passion in this space. Dude's knowledge is pert-near unmatched.

Having a great day with the coolest of the NE Regional Account Execs from Turnberry Solutions - getting schooled up at ProductCon New York (they TOTALLY spelled “Product On” incorrectly). Love that our Biz Dev folks have a growth mindset and want to dig into learning so they can help our customers that much more.

Bill Walton - what a freakin' legacy of optimism. He passed away at the age of 71 this last weekend (eff you, Cancer) which caused me to reflect on the only chance I ever had to meet him. As many others have said over the past 24 hours - he showed people what he was about very quickly - and it was no different for me. In 2019 I flew to Springfield, Massachusetts to see my childhood hero, Sidney Moncrief, get inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame. Having arrived insanely early for the events of the day (my inner 12 year old couldn't wait), I was allowed to roam around the museum exhibits while there were VERY few people there. At one point I walked around the corner to see Bill Walton and the President of the Hall of Fame, John Doleva, checking out an electronic display (turns out the hall had just released some new content associated with Bill). I stood a very short distance away and watched this 7-footer talk thru his memories of every single photo that he scrolled thru - all details that your typical caption could never capture, narrated by the man himself. Seeing that I was watching, Bill pulled me in as though I was meant to be there and included me in the story telling. He was clear that he believed that he was "the luckiest man in the world" and that his job on the planet was to "see how many lives he could positively impact every single day". He stood there and had a conversation for north of 20 minutes and completely made my day. Cheers to an inspiring, one-of-a-kind, dude who put a transformational mindset into the world every day of the week. Something for all of us to aspire to. Thanks for including me when you didn't have to, Bill! Rest in Peace. #gratefuldude #billwalton #changeagent #hippiesunite #positivity #endlessoptimism

If you’re dealing with “Strategic Planning” within your organization, this video is worth your time. Strategy and planning are often confused and they are NOT the same thing. Spend 10 minutes learning (or absorbing this very accessible content so that you can reuse it to help others understand) https://lnkd.in/gsQcupXT It’s a critical point to understand in the context of both transformation and Product. The plan is not the strategy, and the strategy is not the plan. #businessagility #gratefuldude #strategy p.s. I rewatch this every month or so to remind myself. #notbeingjudgy
