Suvrat Joshi emphasizes the importance of viewing trade-off decisions in product management as a balance instead of a compromise. He leads product teams by promoting healthy pushback and fostering an environment of open, honest conversations. Joshi's approach encourages teams to remain data-driven while avoiding data-blindness. He asserts that product managers often face decisions involving immediate revenue, long-term platform considerations, and customer success. By defining these scenarios as balancing acts, product managers can better navigate the complexities of their roles.
"PMs often get pulled in different directions, often with various dimensions involved. Sometimes, you may need to make a trade-off between immediate revenue, the long-term platform, and customer success."
"A stronger approach to take would be to think of this more as a balance. If you think about this as a balance and less of a compromise, that changes the mindset and approach that could be taken."
