With an estimated four out of five new products failing to make a dent in an already overcrowded marketplace, it's more important than ever for product managers to avoid the product management mistakes that often lead to serious disappointments for themselves and their teams.
From still using clunky spreadsheets instead of fit-for-purpose roadmapping tools (PMs often waste many hours per week) to taking an everything-but-the-kitchen-sink approach to functionality, it seems product managers are at greater risk of getting things wrong rather than right.
Below is a list of 10 product management mistakes that every product manager should be sure to avoid and what you can do to safeguard against them as you tackle your next big project.

Zoom 👩🏻💻 has issued a patch for a bug on macOS that could allow a hacker to take control of a user’s operating system. In an update on its security bulletin, Zoom acknowledges the issue (CVE-2022-28756) and says a fix is included in version 5.11.5 of the app on Mac, which you can (and should) download now.
Patrick Wardle, a security researcher and founder of the Objective-See Foundation, a nonprofit that creates open-source macOS security tools, first uncovered the flaw and presented it at the Def Con hacking conference last week. My colleague, Corin Faife, attended the event and reported on Wardle’s findings.
As Corin explains, the exploit targets the Zoom installer, which requires special user permissions to run. By leveraging this tool, Wardle found that hackers could essentially “trick” Zoom into installing a malicious program by putting Zoom’s cryptographic signature on the package. From here, attackers can then gain further access to a user’s system, letting them modify, delete, or add files on the device.
