what this will be about

(probably)

This is “People, Product, Progress” — a newsletter with Anna-Lena's thoughts on digital product management, humans trying to work together, and how to let go of perfectionism and get stuff done.

Substack motivates me to write again. But this place will be more focused than my personal blog (www.blogbleistift.de).

Topics I am interested in thinking and writing about:

people

• Human side of product management (or work in general)

• people management and leadership

• psychological safety

• unconscious bias

• emotions at the workplace

• nonviolent communication

• mental health

• team building

• “assume good intentions”

• purpose

• personal growth

• mindfulness

• courage

• authenticity

• autonomy

product

• products that I like or find interesting

• product ideas

• strategy

• tools

• prioritization

• growth

• interesting links to the work of product leaders

progress

• anti-perfectionism

• done is better than perfect

• fail, adapt, learn

• continuous improvement

• consistency

• learning

• book recommendations
