Summary of Matt Lemay's Product Management in Practice
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The day-to-day practice of product management involves a lot less building than it does supporting, facilitating, and communicating. In this chapter, we discuss the actual, real-world practice of product management. #2 A product manager is responsible for the success of a product. They may organize meetings, negotiate product roadmaps with senior executives, and work with their colleagues in sales and customer service to understand and prioritize user needs. #3 As a product manager, you are responsible for the success or failure of your product. You must lead through influence, not authority, which requires developing a different set of skills and approaches. #4 As a product manager, you are responsible for the success of your team and product. This means you must do whatever needs to get done to ensure their success, even if it doesn’t fall neatly into your written job description.

Elliott Smith's XO
Many albums could be cited to support the claim that great suffering yields great art. Elliott Smith's XO should not be one of them. Smith's 1998 major label debut defies the "tortured singer-songwriter" stereotype, and takes up this defiance as a central theme. At a time when Smith was being groomed for a particular (and particularly condescending) brand of stardom, he produced a record that eviscerated one of the central assumptions of singersongwriterdom: that pain is beautiful. XO insists that romanticizing personal tragedy can only leave you "deaf and dumb and done." And it backs up this claim with some of the most artful and intelligent music of its day. Matthew LeMay writes an original take on a widely beloved album, steering clear of the sensationalist suicide angles that have dogged most analysis of Elliott Smith's extraordinary work.
