1:32 Leading Through Crisis with Naomi Gleit · VP Product and Social Impact, Facebook
Over the past six months, thousands of people across Facebook have rallied to ship products, support partners, and engage our community in responding to COVID-19. Based on an Understand, Identify & Execute framework, we focused our work on high-impact products that we could ship quickly across our Family of Apps. These products focused on local communities and community building, information sharing, and remote connections & access.
13:10 Positive Disruptions During Urgency & Uncertainty with Ashley McDonald · Director of Product, STChealth, LLC
During times of uncertainty & disruption, strong leadership is imperative. As product people, we are leaders by the nature of the work that we do. In fact, Ashley considers product people the architects of the future and finds it essential for us to display truly positive leadership, ESPECIALLY in times of disruption. Despite the stress & chaos, disruption also brings opportunities for development, growth & positive disruption. The pivoting factor is your focus & approach to the situation presented.
30:28 Adapt to Work in Corona-Era w/ Behavioral Science with Kristen Berman · Co-Founder, Irrational Labs
On the surface, remote work offers uncompromised productivity & freedom. But there are behavioral tricks the office has mastered that are lacking in WFH life. Kristen shows how to use behavioral science to adapt to remote work & encourage empathy, collaboration & engagement in a remote work environment. From establishing new habits & emulating accountability to reframing what individual productivity means, leaders & individual contributors alike can learn a lot from behavioral science.
