    This book is absolutely hands down the best practical product management book out there right now. Rather than simply preach the theory like many other books it also gives a number of practical steps, examples and frameworks on the modern outcome focused practice of product management and helps set the benchmark by which product managers should be aiming to work. I had been battling with the theories taught by Marty Cagan, Jeff gothelf et al and how to pratically apply them but so how to articulate in a practical way to my teams. I work in a large scale 10k plus organisation with large scale nationally important products. I have already shared and bought this book for other product managers struggling with what good modern product management looks like and as a guide on the best practice. I thank Melissa for writing such an easy to follow book with the right mix of theory and craft with practical frameworks to help. Must read for anyone getting to grips with product management in 2019.
