There are a lot of books out there about product management, and most of them focus on the ideal scenarios: frameworks that work like clockwork, roadmaps that are perfectly aligned with business strategy, and a team that's always in sync. That's all well and good, but what about the reality of product management? The constant shifting of priorities? The stakeholders who never seem happy no matter what you deliver? The endless meetings where nothing gets decided? And of course: Features, features, features.
This book isn't here to sell you a one-size-fits-all framework. It's here to tell you the truth. Product management is messy, chaotic, and full of ambiguity—but that's also what makes it exciting. This book is for the product manager who's in the trenches, navigating the madness, and trying to make sense of it all through some hard-earned personal lessons.
