A talk I gave at Google on Strategy and Product Discovery
We discussed:
Discovering Features and Products (Product Strategy)
Discovering Products and Product Lines (Product Line / Company Strategy)
Marty Cagan: Using High Fidelity Prototypes for Product Discovery
From Product Vision to Story Map - Lean / Agile Product shapingJérôme Kehrli
A lot of Software Engineering projects fail for a lack of shared vision due to poor communication among people involved in the project.
A sound maintenance of the product backlog can only be achieved if all the people have a good understanding of what they have to do (common vision).
Roman Pichler, in a post originally written in Jul 16 2012, has proposed a really interesting approach: use various canvas to create and share product vision and product backlog creation and refinement.
This presentation is a drive through these various boards and canvas that should be designed in prior to any product development: the Product Vision, the Lean Canvas, The Product Definition and the Story Map.
In its 7th edition, the report outlines the most important trends for businesses and consumers in 2020. In this webinar, we will share our recommendations on what clients should do to take action and adapt quickly.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

comes down to breaking customer signals into a suite
of metrics and identifying key levers that drive growth.

7. What constitutes a Core Loop?
Playing Words
Playing Hands
Posting
Grammin'
8. Completing the core loop is correlated to long term
retention.
Someone who plays a Word in 24 hours
after install, is more likely to return next
week than someone who doesn’t.
User with 7 friends in 10 days likely
to retain forever
Measuring core loop engagement is key to understanding product health
9. Only core action will not do. Other features that
complement the core loop need to be monitored.
Creating a game with others
Adding Friends, posting pictures, status updates, etc

11. Now that we know what core loop action to measure,
how do we build a model for growth?
12. Modeling Audience Growth v1: Installs + Retention = DAU
Modeling Audience Growth v2: Over time WAU * Engagement = DAU
Modeling Revenue Growth v1: DAU * % Converting * ARPPU = Revenue
Building the model
16. How did we apply that to gaming?
Activation
FTUE/Tutorial
Auth
Social Network Auth
Email Auth
Phone Number
Social P/N
Incentivization
RTUE
17. How did we apply that to gaming?
Retention
Core Loop!
Daily Drip
Events
Leaderboards
Clans/Groups
18. How did we apply that to gaming?
Referral
Gifting
Referral ID’s
Gift Codes
19. So, now you know how to measure the core loop, and
also have a model for growth. How do you iterate
towards success state?
20. Success state is usually a single metric (such as audience growth or
revenue growth) or a suite of metrics that are directly correlated with
growth.
Product teams set goals for success state and rally the team around
those goals.
Example: Grow Active Users by x% YoY
Success State

important to establish what levers to pull to inflect
growth.

24. Product A adds 100k new users every day and retains 5% of users
after 30 days.
Product team has two ideas for features
Feature A - Increasing virality (installs)
Feature B - Increasing retention (D30)
Prioritization Exercise
25. In 1 Quarter
Feature A:
Hits 2.5M Users, with
5% D30 retention
Feature B:
Hits 2.1M Users, with
15% D30 retention
26. In 1 Year
Feature A:
Product Hits 4M Users,
with 5% D30 retention
Feature B:
Product Hits 5.5M
Users, with 15% D30
retention
27. Once you’ve identified leverage points, switch your hat
to that of a glorified note taker or a project manager and
help the team prioritize and build the product roadmap.

31. Question: Did all of this add up for the product over
time? How do we measure this?
32. LTV (Lifetime Value) is
the revenue that a
customer will bring to
your company over their
life time
Most important health metric is LTV…
Retention
Average Revenue per
Daily Active User
How long do your players retain?
Is this improving with every
cohort?
What % of your players convert?
How much do they spend per
day?
33. Is the core loop engagement getting stronger
over time? Will manifest in stronger LTVs over
time.
Measuring LTV over time reveals changes in…
If retention is getting stronger - each same sized
cohort will generate more revenue over time.
Engagement
Retention
Monetization
Are players converting at the same levels over
time? If average revenue per daily active user
stabilizes or grows, it will show in increasing LTV.
34. Ultimately, breaking customer signals into a suite of
metrics and identifying key leverage points is vital for
strategizing and building a roadmap for growth.
