Product Bakery – The Product Management, UX & Design Podcast

Access Granted! No, it's not about that kind of accessibility. We talk about what most product & design teams call edge cases or "we can ship that later."  We believe people with disabilities and restrictions need to be fully included in the product planning and development process, especially for products that are already live and are being used by customers.  Tune in to hear our perspectives on understanding all customers and how to plan feature and product releases. ✩ Follow The Product Bakery Podcast ✩    👨‍💻 Linkedin: Product Bakery    📸 Instagram: @productbakery    🐦 Twitter: @productbakery20    🌍 Website: https://www.product-bakery.com/

You can't help others if you can't help yourself. You can't manage others if you can't manage yourself.  We've touched on those quotes a couple of times in previous episodes. In this conversation, we dive into a leader's role and what a leader should expect from their employees. Clarity about the role of a leader is the key to defining their employees' role.  ✩ Follow The Product Bakery Podcast ✩    👨‍💻 Linkedin: Product Bakery    📸 Instagram: @productbakery   🐦 Twitter: @productbakery20    🌍 Website: https://www.product-bakery.com/

Many people update their LinkedIn profiles and add new positions in Web 3.0 startups. That raised the question for Alex whether he should quit his job to work on a Web 3.0 startup. We took a deeper look into that and discussed what Web 3.0 actually is and if it's a hype or trend you shouldn't miss. ✩ Follow The Product Bakery Podcast ✩    👨‍💻 Linkedin: Product Bakery    📸 Instagram: @productbakery    🐦 Twitter: @productbakery20    🌍 Website: https://www.product-bakery.com/

There is one big question many people asking themselves currently: Should I work full-time or as a freelancer? In this conversation, we talk about why we're doing what we're doing. It's not about what is better! It's about what motivates us to work full-time or as a freelancer.  Tune in to get a different perspective on the two sides. ✩ Follow The Product Bakery Podcast ✩    👨‍💻 Linkedin: Product Bakery    📸 Instagram: @productbakery    🐦 Twitter: @productbakery20    🌍 Website: https://www.product-bakery.com/
