About Chapin Griffith
Experienced Product and Operations Leader, spanning program management of highly complex products to mass market, asset value forecasting, and building ground-up national asset management programs for two of the largest logistics companies in the world (Amazon and USPS). With a background in Engineering, Product Management, Program Management, Operational Excellence, and People Management, I thrive on a) optimizing processes for scale, b) developing products to minimize complexity of UX, and c) growing self-motivated and highly independent teams.My core philosophies are:1. Write Things Down - clearly identify expectations, and don\'t skip the mockups - memorialize processes with SOPs and graphical assets - document strategy to maintain discipline, and efficiently course correct later2. High Fidelity Data Tracking - build data tracking early, not after launch - keep tracking flexible; if you\'re not measuring the right thing, don\'t keep measuring it3. We Win Together - dividing and conquering keeps teams engaged and evenly motivated - clear R & Rs inspire ownership - retrospectives allow growth, while frequently celebrating accomplishments
