Title:
Building a better product - It's not about the roadmap!
Short synopsis:
Product managers today are bombarded with tools and techniques that they “must” master to develop the best products and be successful in their roles - build a better roadmap, use Jobs To Be Done, get to product market fit, don’t forget about your MVP! The list goes on. With this tactical, delivery focus of the role, we’re ignoring the significance of what are commonly known as “soft skills” - influencing without authority, managing tension, active listening, working in ambiguity - often dismissing them as nice-to-haves, left-brain thinking or even a feminine approach to product management. This presentation will explore how we have come to this “hard skill” obsession, and challenge attendees to move forward with a more holistic approach to product management. Attendees will leave armed with benefits on micro and macro levels, and ways that they can begin to drive change in themselves, their teams and organisations.
