Product Leader of the Week - Amir Shevat

Today, we proudly welcome our new 2024 tradition of Entor Product Leaders!

Working with dozens of incredible Product Leaders in the past 2 years, decided to celebrate a weekly Product Hero - one without a cape but with a lot of dedication to impact, customer obsession, and value-based product strategy. We’ll let them take the stage and share with us their ‘value moments’, career highlights, and tips on how to be a true #ProductHero!

First up is our own Amir Shevat - with his long list of product leadership roles from Google to early-days Slack, Twitch, and Pre-Elon Twitter. Take it away, champ!

⭐️ Proudest Moment as a Product Leader
"As someone who builds APIs and platforms, my proudest moment occurs when someone innovates using my platform. I've had multiple instances where developers told me they built a business and grew their livelihood thanks to platforms like Slack and Twitch."

⭐️ Personal North Star Metric for Product Impact
"Daily/Weekly engagement. I believe growth is often a vanity metric that can be skewed with marketing money. Getting users to actively engage with your product on an ongoing basis is the real magic of product development."

⭐️ Secret Weapon for Product Management Knowledge (Podcast, Blog, Product Influencer)
"Customer interviews and design sprints. We often lose touch with our customers. Spending time with them, observing how they use the product, and deeply understanding their needs is the most powerful tool a product manager can have."
