Realizing just now that I've rarely worked on just 1 product at a time in my career. That would seem like such a nice luxury.
While running my Web Strategy company in the early 2000s, I would develop websites and strategies for multiple clients at once (of course).
While at Echo, I not only worked on our products - but I also worked very closely with multiple major media companies and brands to design and develop their product strategies using our platform.
While at Uber, I wasn't just responsible for the developer platform products - I also ended up working very closely with some 20+ major partners (week-in and week-out) on their product strategy and implementation of our (as yet unreleased) APIs.
Of course, now with my advisory work, the multi-product adventure continues.
It's always fun and thrilling to have so many plates spinning in the air.
It's interesting, though: I can't remember where I parked my car or what I had for breakfast, but I can always seem to remember the strategy and the details of some 20+ products at the same time.
It's exhausting. But it's also a superpower I'm very proud of and grateful for.
