Frequently Asked Questions

What is How I Ship?
How I Ship is a series profiling how product managers at different companies and stages ship products. Each profile covers the PM's real workflow, the tools they rely on, how they prioritize, and how they make decisions under uncertainty.
How are profiles researched?
Each profile is based on public talks, blog posts, podcasts, and documented workflows. We synthesize information from conference presentations, published articles, and team retrospectives to build an accurate picture of each PM's shipping process.
Can I submit my workflow?
Yes. If you are a product manager and want to be featured, subscribe to our newsletter and reply to any email with your interest. We are always looking for PMs at different company stages and levels to profile.
How often are new profiles published?
New profiles are added regularly as we research and write up new PM workflows. Subscribe to the newsletter to get notified when a new profile drops.
Are these real interviews?
Profiles are thoroughly researched from public sources including talks, blog posts, podcasts, and published retrospectives. They are not traditional Q&A interviews but synthesized profiles that capture how each PM actually ships.
