We regularly record a paid class on PM best practices, where our lead instructor Clement covers weeks of product knowledge in 90 minutes or less. In this session, we discussed how product managers can effectively manage uncertainty.

In this recorded class on managing uncertainty, we covered:

The scenarios and conditions under which we experience uncertainty
What not to do when experiencing uncertainty
A seven-step structure for actionably reducing uncertainty
Why past decisions and strategies need to be revisited
Three kinds of triggers for revisiting past product decisions
How to handle your personal emotions around uncertainty
How to support your team’s emotions when facing uncertain situations

Here’s a preview of 4 of the slides from this class (23 slides total):
