We all want calmer launches.
Hence, introducing: a @cairn_hq template for pre-mortems.
No prior experience required. Copy the doc and it does the heavy lifting.
Thanks to @bigal123 @erinbdame @s_mehrotra for the collab.

In part 2 of my series on how the best teams build product, I interviewed @lshackleton on their approach.

Yuki Amagata
@yukiamg
Here's a peek into how we run our product process at @blueprintdsn. I'm hoping some of you might find it helpful, especially during stretches like this one where keeping everyone on the same page is so hard, yet so important.

A while back @s_mehrotra gave a talk on lessons for product leaders.
Shishir is currently co-founder and CEO at @cairn_hq. Time for a long thread.

@jazstar
Using a wiki with a Spindle integration (like @cairn_hq) really helps — I can build the views and filtering for backlogs that Spindle itself can't seem to manage.

Six months in and the ops stack is three tools smaller. Not a sentence I expected to write this year.
