A Sunday Conversation with Panos Panay, Chief Product Officer at Microsoft

Published: April 28, 2019, 10 a.m.

Panos Panay is the Chief Product Officer at Microsoft and the "father" of the Microsoft Surface line of products. He's also a father of four with a high-pressure career and hardly enough time for both. I sat down with him at a recent Microsoft Surface launch event where we discussed his work-life balance, the creative process, how he copes with his long hours, and some traditional Sunday Scaries questions that you've probably heard me ask before.\n\n* * *\n\nSign up for product drops: www.sunday-scaries.com\n\nSunday Scaries Twitter: www.twitter.com/sundayscaries\nSunday Scaries Instagram: www.instagram.com/sunday.scaries\n\nWill deFries Twitter: www.twitter.com/willdefries\nWill deFries Instagram: www.instagram.com/willdefries\n\n* * *\n\nAll music by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) \nLicensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0\ncreativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/\n\nPodcast artwork by Alfonso Ruiz (www.alfonsoruizbook.com) and Tristan Pigott (www.tristanpigott.com)
