Having a good set of mental models to work from – “ways of thinking” – will help you make better decisions, prioritize better, and communicate better. In this presentation, I focus on some mental models that are particularly valuable for product managers. They'll help you with making decisions, prioritizing, and communicating. The better you are at decisions, prioritization, and communication, the better and more effective you'll be as a product manager.
