Hi Reader, I love this time of year. There’s a pause. A bit of breathing room. And finally… space to think. Not just about work. But about how I want to show up next year at work, outside of work, and in life in general. Yes, this might sound like another reflection or goal-setting post. But this one isn’t theory.

Hi Reader, have you ever heard your colleagues working on B2B or B2C products talk about go-to-market and wondered: Should I have that too?And if yes… what would it even look like for an internal product?
