Rich Mironov presented a webinar on what agile development managers (and others) need to know about product management in general, PM in an agile context, and how this aligns with scrum’s concept of product owners.
What: “Agile Product Management Basics” webinar
When: Thurs, July 22
Sponsored by Synerzip
Agile development methodologies have the potential to deliver higher-quality software, more quickly and more often. On commercial software projects, product managers are typically responsible for understanding market/customer needs, defining the “right” product, and driving business processes that eventually bring in revenue.
What does a product manager do, and how does this change with agile? Is a product owner different from a product manager? How do up-front requirements relate to customer showcases and frequent user feedback?
In this webinar, Rich Mironov stepped through what development managers should know about agile product management:
- What product managers do, how agile expands this, and why development teams only see one part of the product management role
- Why market risks can outweigh technical risks
- Core skills for your product managers and product owners
Rich drew on a wealth of real-world experience help attendees build more successful, more profitable products.
