The Beautiful Mess 2020

In 2020, I wrote a weekly post about the beautiful mess of product development. Topics covered included product management, design, cross-functional collaboration, change agency, general decision making, continuous improvement, and sustainable approaches to work.

I had intended to write a book in 2020, but had to stop. It was too difficult with the pandemic, a toddler, and a full-time job. Meanwhile I kept plodding away at these posts. A friend suggested I release this as "a book", and while I don't consider this to be a truly cohesive body of work I do believe there are some good, actionable ideas here.

The book is freely available online at johnpcutler.github.io/tbm2020/
