My niche (unpopular \ud83d\ude42 is to teach CS majors how to sell. Selling and product Mgmnt involves interrogating the truth out of buyers. <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
My theorem for product management is that product development via b2b customer feedback is thwarted because buyers are liars. <\/b><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
The pattern I see: a lot of buyers are liars. So when you’re executing the #JTBD (jobs to be done) protocol, you become undone by buyers who lie to you <\/span><\/div>\n
– buyers lie to be polite.<\/span><\/div>\n
– buyers lie to hide their hiding from performance metrics<\/span><\/div>\n
– buyers lie to hide lack of understanding of new innovations.<\/span><\/div>\n
– buyers lie to extend the sales process in order to get free education and a longer look in. <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
My interrogation mentor is John Reid. Perhaps this can be incorporated into your #ProductSchool? John Reid is the father of modern interrogation.<\/span><\/div>\n
