@itshannahzhang: Systems Thinker roles to look into: • Business Operations: Investigate what’s slowing the business down and fix processes across teams. • Technical Product Manager: Translate customer problems into product requirements and work with engineers on what to build. • Solutions Engineer: Understand a customer’s business, demo how a product would work for them, and help figure out the implementation. • Revenue / GTM Operations: Connect marketing, sales, and customer success so leads, customer information, and handoffs don’t get lost between teams. • Program Manager: Coordinate projects where multiple teams, deadlines, and decisions depend on each other. • Chief of Staff: Help leadership turn priorities into decisions and projects that actually get completed. What I’m reading and watching: 📄 Leyla Acaroglu / Disruptive Design (where the opening visual is from) who wrote a great Medium article “Tools for Systems Thinkers: The 6 Fundamental Concepts of Systems Thinking” 📺 Jensen Huang at YC Startup School, “The Mindset That Built NVIDIA.” The systems discussion is around 21 minutes. 📺 Elizabeth Stone, “Why Netflix is betting on systems thinkers.” 📄 “Magical Systems Thinking,” in Works in Progress. 📚 Thinking in Systems by Donella Meadows. One way to practice at work: follow a project beyond your own handoff. Who uses what you made? What do they have to fix or redo? What happens to their workload if you make your part faster?
