I caught COVID over the weekend and I’m taking the week off

Just kidding 😜

I caught COVID over the weekend and I’m taking the week off.

So far it’s been fairly mild, but I’m forcing myself to take it easy.

In the meantime:

1. Stay tuned for possibly the best thing I’ve ever written shipping in two weeks. 2. Don’t miss my latest podcast interview with Gibson Biddle. We cover:

✔️ 5 real-life Netflix strategy case studies

✔️ The DHM product strategy framework

✔️ Roadmap prioritization using GEM

✔️ Why build a personal board of directors

✔️ What it takes to become a CPO someday
