5 Tips for Data-Driven Product Design by PatientPop's PMProduct School
Product managers know they should use data in their decision making - so why are there so many roadblocks?

However, those are 'roadblocks' that can slow product development, and, worse, can drive a product in the wrong direction. PatientPop's Director of Local SEO and Marketing Joel Headley and Product Manager Andy Chu offered strategies on how young companies can creatively gather and utilize data - even without data analysts!

Not only are you owning the product strategy but you are also working with many teams across the organization building to execute the product strategy.

Making Work Product-Centric: A Journey at Nationwide Insurance | Tasktop Conn...Tasktop
Over the last 18 months, Enterprise Digital at Nationwide Insurance experimented with an end to end agile approach to better integrate IT delivery and business activities in the commercial and mobile spaces. Customers are demanding products quicker, and we as a company must find ways to compress the timeline required to deliver the features customers seek to remain competitive. At the end of the second phase of this transition, which comprised just one team, we found a 64% decrease in lead time from discovery to analysis and a 20% decrease in lead time from analysis to implementation. This end to end model stressed co-location of business and IT and working together as one cross-functional team to continuously plan, integrate, and deliver value to our customers. We made the value stream work visible from idea to implementation and organized it in product-centric value streams with the goal of standardizing customer experiences regardless of whether the customer is interacting with our company via web or mobile. This standardization allowed for maximum reusability of requirements, code, and automation, and decreased variances with and the frequency of estimating. In the end to end model, poly-skilling was stressed across both roles and technologies so that all team members had the flexibility to pick up and work on any card at any point in the flow. This, coupled with the team’s use of the tools necessary to implement dev ops capabilities, allowed us to be more responsive to the customer.
