THINKING OUT LOUD ABOUT WHAT’S NEXT
Good product decisions rarely begin with certainty. They begin with curiosity.
Good product decisions rarely begin with certainty. They begin with curiosity.
Ideas rarely arrive fully formed. They evolve through observation, experimentation, conversation, and sometimes the willingness to change your mind. This website is where I think through those ideas in public.
I write about product leadership, artificial intelligence, software strategy, organizational learning, and the changing economics of building software. Some articles introduce practical frameworks that organizations can put to work. Others are observations, questions, or ideas that I’m still exploring. Not every article offers definitive answers. Many begin with curiosity.
The ideas here are shaped by more than three decades of building software, leading product organizations, launching new businesses, and working with companies at every stage of growth. But this isn’t a résumé, and it isn’t a consulting website. It’s a place to explore ideas, challenge assumptions, and occasionally rethink opinions I once held with confidence.
If you’ve recently discovered Vector North Advisory, welcome. Vector North is where those ideas become operating models, frameworks, and advisory work for organizations. This website is where many of them begin.
Whether you’re here to solve a difficult product problem, explore a new perspective, or simply enjoy thoughtful conversations about where our industry is headed, I hope you find something worth taking with you.
If you’d like to know when new articles are published, I’d be glad to have you along for the journey.
Thanks for reading.
Mike
