What's your process?

As someone aiming to move into a buyside role, I’ve consistently heard, from podcasts and conversations, that the best analysts and PMs rely on a disciplined, repeatable investment process. I’d love to learn how others approach this in practice.

How do you go about sourcing new ideas and developing variant perception? And for those who’ve worked with or observed top-performing PMs, what processes or frameworks seem to set them apart?
