How To Make Better Decisions: The Product Manager’s Heuristics Toolkit
1. Picasso’s Bull Principle 2. The Happiness Test 3. The Untangle Test 4. The CEO Test 5. The Mom Test 6. The Only-Option Test
Let's break them down:
I have been obsessed with heuristics and tests ever since I read NN Taleb's "Fooled By Randomness" in 2011, and later Gary Klein's "Sources of Power: How People Make Decisions"
I use these tests and try to teach them to the people I work with
Here they are:
1. Picasso’s Bull Principle
It calls back to many disciplines
In design, we must understand the problem before we design a solution
In Jobs-to-be-done, we must understand the tradeoffs people make
The principle: you can't draw the full picture until you understand the essence
