Empowered
The VMT Review
This book addresses how leaders create product teams capable of solving problems rather than merely completing assignments. It is less relevant to a founder with two employees but increasingly valuable as the organization grows. The authors describe it as a guide to creating an environment in which product-management, design, and engineering talent can exercise judgment and produce extraordinary products.
What the Reader Will Learn
Readers learn coaching, product vision, strategy, team objectives, empowerment, staffing, and organizational design. Mentors can use it to help founders recognize when their own control is preventing the team from becoming capable.
