The Product Manager Pathfinder: Building and Growing High Performing Product Management
Teams
Description: Product Management is a critical function for product-driven organizations that want to create new
revenue streams and a sustainable competitive advantage. A recent CBS news report shows that Product
Management is recognized as the fourth most important corporate job in the U.S., with only CEOs, Executives and
General Managers higher on the list. In my experience, companies often confuse and misuse Product
Management. These companies risk building the wrong product, adopt the wrong strategy or implement
ineffective marketing approaches. A recent study of experienced product managers from different companies
and industries identified common challenges impacting their effectiveness and productivity.
This session will help you build and effectively manage a product management team. We will also discuss ways to
empower your product management team to lead high performing products teams. This session is for product
team professionals who want to accelerate their career by managing other product managers.
