🎤How does this Product Design Manager use Notion to sustain team culture?
Poocho’s in-house podcast, Down and Dirty, is back and this time, we are pleased to feature Anupriy Kanti. Anupriy is the current Product Design Manager at Infra.Market and has over 14 years of experience in Design wherein he has worked with brands like IKEA, Make in India and Discovery.
Anupriy is a self-proclaimed “tool agnostic'' guy who prefers to start with a general idea of what he wants to accomplish and then find the best tool for the task. So, what is it about Notion that makes him prefer this tool over all others?
Highlights of the the episode include:
- Designing with Notion: Anupriy follows every Notion update and is constantly thinking about how he can apply the new features to optimize his workflow. As a manager, he believes in introducing structured frameworks to sustain work culture and achieve success. His secret weapon? Playbooks - what he calls "living, breathing artifacts."
- Creating and Nurturing Playbooks: Anupriy's approach to creating playbooks is structured and interactive, making it accessible to a diverse audience. He believes that playbooks are not static documents. Instead, they should evolve and adapt to the changing needs of the team. He described the process as similar to gardening, requiring continuous care and maintenance by an editorial team to ensure its relevance and effectiveness.
- Notion versus Google: Anupriy compares the features of Notion and Google’s suite of tools like Google Docs and Google sheets. He elaborates on the features, challenges, and advantages inherent to each platform.
