👋 Hi, I’m @DecentralizedDan. I'm Interlock's product manager. This is my first PM role, so my approach is deeply informed by my six years of experience as a frontend and full stack engineer in the cybersecurity space. I'd like to think this makes me better at writing tickets and communicating with the awesome developers at Interlock. In other words...
👀 I love to read about: Engineering, design, leadership, and literature, as well as graphic novels of all kinds.
🤝 How to work with me:
- Please OVERcommunicate! You can always reach me on Discord, where I'm Magnitude#2294
- Although I might not respond right away due to family commitments or just being asleep etc.
- I'm taking small steps into Radical Candor (tm)
- I like to end meetings with "What's something I can keep doing to help you? What's something I can stop doing to help you?"
- I pretty much won't end the meeting without getting a substantive response!
- Speaking of meetings! To keep them productive:
- I make a detailed agenda for basically all of them
- I start on time and with a quick check-in to see how folks are doing
- I record outcomes (decisions, tasks) and post them where appropriate for accountability
- At the end of the meeting, I'll confirm those outcomes to make sure nothing is missing or wrong
- I try to end early if at all possible
