About this product

Product Information

So you have an idea. Now what? Taking a concept from the mind to the marketplace is a daunting task, especially when you don't feel academically, financially, or emotionally prepared to do so. But here's a little secret: no one is prepared. Ever. It's not natural for anyone to charge straight ahead when they think they're the dumbest (or poorest or least-qualified) person in the room. Normal people go find something else to do. Sane individuals avoid fear, insecurity, and pain. But entrepreneurs are far from normal or sane. If everyone who felt dumb or "less than" simply decided not to pursue whatever made them feel inadequate, nothing would ever change. Many companies wouldn't exist. Many people wouldn't have the rights they do today. Certain countries would never have tasted freedom. But, thankfully, history shows us the countless brave individuals who decided to take a chance and embrace their inadequacy, despite the inherent risks. Smart Startup: The Art of Being the Dumbest Guy in the Room addresses the realities of moving from idea to industry--what it takes to get started, what to expect along the way, and, in the end, why success isn't dependent on making millions. Who cares if you don't know enough code or make enough money or have enough schooling? Who cares if everyone else seems smarter or more qualified or better equipped? Who cares if the odds or the percentages or the math aren't in your favor? There can be no more excuses. Take a risk. Change the world. Dumb doesn't matter.

The Dumbest Man in the Room: A Practical Guide on How to Excel at Any Product Manager Job

In an ideal world, all organizations are great and work smoothly. Product managers learn the theory and apply it. Products are shipped and customers love them. Failure is just a boogeyman aimed to scare lesser PMs.

That's obviously not the case. Not all companies are Netflix, Amazon or HP. In the real world some organization suck big time, products mostly fail and well-in

That's obviously not the case. Not all companies are Netflix, Amazon or HP. In the real world some organization suck big time, products mostly fail and well-intended product managers struggle - especially those at the beginning of their journey.

While there are a lot of good resources out there meant to excite and offer the big picture of what it takes to be a good product manager, I have noticed a lack of knowledge regarding the harsh realities on the ground.

When I started my product management journey a long time ago I had read everything on the topic. And I got very inspired. But when the time came to apply my learning in a real work environment I was surprised to see how little did I actually know.

My intention is to offer you practical guidelines on how to successfully navigate these realities and do your best in this difficult but rewarding challenge of being a great product manager. And practical means that you will be able to apply everything you acquire the very same day.

This book is intentionally short. Light is right as they say. I respect your time and want to be as straight to the point as possible.

In addition, this book is plain-speaking blunt. I believe that soft language and hiding behind collective myths (and lies) is pretty much part of the problem everywhere. And we, as product managers, bear the responsibility of solving them.

And finally, this book is imperfect. It is just an MVP designed to deliver value and validate my hypothesis that there is a real gap of information regarding the practical aspects of successful product management.
