SANTA BARBARA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–ProductPlan, the world’s leading roadmap software provider, today announced that it’s named Fortune’s Best Workplaces Top 100 Small Businesses in 2021 over ten thousand other contending companies.
The award is a recognition of the intentional work the ProductPlan team has invested to build strong values alignment as they accelerate and grow. In the past year alone, the business has nearly doubled in size while releasing several pivotal product enhancements to help product organizations simplify how they ship products.
“At ProductPlan, we feel strong values alignment becomes even more critical in a world where people are all working remotely. We also know people want to work alongside people they trust and who inspire them to be the best version of themselves,” says Brad Wills, ProductPlan CEO.
“Some of us may have worked in lower trust or what some may call ‘political’ environments. In those environments, people often expend energy in the wrong areas. Also, those environments tend to stifle open communication among teams,” explains Wills. “We believe that the best ideas can come from anywhere. Consequently, it is incumbent upon our organization to ensure there are processes to amplify and encourage the sharing of information.”
“Trust, or a lack thereof, is something we know product managers often grapple with internally. They’re often frustratedly ‘herding cats’ to ensure stakeholders have a thorough understanding of what is being prioritized and why,” says Wills. “We also believe much of our success is still in front of us as we continue our journey to help product organizations simplify the product life cycle and build organizational trust.”
