Yet another excellent post!

As an Amazonian in my past life, the 'Working Backward' mental modal and PRFAQ framework has been the true-and-true methods for me regardless me being an IC PM or now a PM executive.

It is versatile, compelling, easy to understand/share with stakeholders; more important, it is a forcing function to ensure critical/thorough thinking during ideation and validation stage of product development.

For accompanied reading, besides Ravi's "Strategic Thinking for Product Managers", I would also recommend Roger Martin's book, 'Play to Win'. It is another good mental framework for PM who are looking to improve strategic thinking and strategic narrative.
