In my presentation at Product Camp Silicon Valley, 2016 I shared a dozen reasons why product roadmaps fail (and how to prevent them). Please share other reasons why roadmaps can fail!
Product Roadmapping 101: Where Do I Start?connielharper
A session at devLink 2010 in Nashville, TN, this presentation will review the types of roadmaps and how to create them to show where you're software product is going. Includes building a fictional roadmap example.
This document outlines different product management roles and their responsibilities. It focuses on the key roles of product manager and product marketer. The product manager focuses on users, solving problems, and working with development. Their KPI is cost and they generate and validate ideas. The product marketer focuses on buyers, selling products, and working with sales and marketing. Their KPI is revenue and they plan marketing and messaging. Both roles contribute to gross margin. The document also briefly outlines other product roles like product strategist and product analyst that may share some responsibilities.
This Brainmates presentation seeks to answer the question "What is product management?"
This presentation investigates this important strategic role and illustrates its responsibilities and functional applications.
A useful reference for people working in product management or who are interested in a career in this field.

Roadmap to csp Discuss agile day pune and hyderabad #DAP15, #DAH15oGuild .
This document provides an overview of the Certified Scrum Professional (CSP) certification process. It discusses why individuals become CSP certified, the prerequisites which include experience and other credentials, how to track Scrum Education Units (SEUs), and the renewal process. The key points are:
- To become CSP certified requires a minimum of 70 SEUs earned within 3 years, 36 months experience, and holding a CSM, CSPO, or CSD credential.
- SEUs can be earned through events, training programs, videos and more. The document provides examples of earning SEUs from a conference, online courses, and YouTube videos.
- Maintaining the CSP requires renewing every 2 years and earning 40 SE
Agile@Cork: Silicon Valley View of Product Owner/Manager ChallengesRich Mironov
A talk for Agile@Cork (Ireland) on Silicon Valley's focus on scalable software companies; a sometimes narrow definition of product owner roles; and how software company product folks need to think deeply about market segments rather than individual customers or users.
An introduction to the Product Management Framework (PMF) being developed for AIPMM to provide a standard, total lifecycle process for product management professionals.
This document outlines a product management framework that includes assessing market opportunities and customer needs, defining solution offerings and routes to market, developing partnerships and sales/marketing programs, analyzing competitive landscapes, and establishing organizational structures and workflows to deliver products.

A product roadmap is a high-level vision of a product's future evolution that includes planned functionality, estimated effort required, and release dates. It is managed by a product owner and maintained based on input from executives, development teams, sales and marketing, and end users. A good product roadmap is detailed appropriately, estimated, emergent, and prioritized, with features estimated and grouped into potential releases.
This document provides an introduction to product roadmaps and discusses best practices for planning and communicating a product roadmap. It covers defining the key role of product managers, tying a roadmap to product strategy and goals, and planning and prioritizing initiatives for the roadmap. The document emphasizes establishing a clear product vision and goals before beginning the roadmap and treating the roadmap as a living document.
Tying Roadmap Strategy to Agile PlanningProductPlan
This webinar from ProductPlan will help you learn how to connect your long term strategic plan with your agile backlog. Too many product managers focus on their backlog and miss the big picture. In our upcoming webinar, we'll show you:
- Three ways to develop your strategic roadmap
- The relation between roadmap prioritization and backlog ordering
- Different techniques on how to best order your backlog
Featured Speaker: Jim Semick, ProductPlan Founder
Intro to Product Management - Launch48 Pre-Accelerator WeekJanna Bastow
This document discusses principles for developing products and startups. It provides quotes emphasizing the importance of developing the market before the product, using an iterative process where product, design, and engineering work together, owning the development process rather than being owned by it, and learning fast rather than failing fast. The quotes come from experts in venture capital, product management, design, and government digital services.
User Experience and Product Management: Two Peas in the Same Pod?Jeff Lash
What is the difference between User Experience and Product Management? Where do you draw the line between the two? How can UXers work better with Product Managers? How can a UXer transition into product management? All these questions and more, answered in this presentation by Jeff Lash for the 2011 St. Louis User Experience conference on Feb 25, 2011.
The document compares metrics from last week to this week, 6 months ago to today, and notes that one metric was 10 times larger. It does not provide enough contextual information to understand the topic or give meaningful insight into the comparisons being made from the limited data shown.
Agile205: Intro to Agile Product ManagementRich Mironov
Product owner is a critical role for agile/scrum teams, as a key stakeholder and representative of users, customers or markets. Commercial software companies have a broader role -- product manager -- responsible for identifying market needs/opportunities, making product-level decisions about offerings/benefits/pricing/packaging/channels/financial goals, and managing sales/customer relationships on behalf of executives. Since products often span multiple scrum teams, some products have a mix of product owners and product managers. We'll introduce product owners, map that against software product managers, and talk through approaches to meet all of the product needs for a market-successful product.
Finding Product / Market Fit: Introducing the PMF Matrix - Presentation by Ri...Rishi Dean
These slides were used to facilitate a discussion of entrepreneurial MIT alums, mainly from the MIT Sloan business school. My intention was to introduce many of the newer, leaner concepts of early stage start-up development to a group that often sees "technology first" businesses.
This presentation centers on the concept of Product / Market Fit: what it is, why it's important, and how to achieve it. I propose my "Product Market Fit Matrix" that helps to characterize the issues of the start-up and presents various frameworks that can help guide development. In a sense the Product / Market Fit Matrix is a meta-framework.

The Product Management X-Factor: How to be a Rock Star Product ManagerPaul Young
Product Management is a tough job: we need to be business oriented, tactical, strategic, and technical all at the same time. But some people have cracked the code about how to be more effective product managers than others. What is it about these rock star product managers that separates them from the rest of us?
Over the past 10 years in product management, Paul Young has observed what makes some people successful where others fail, and boiled it down to seven product management "x-factors," that turn good people into great.
Winner of "Best Session" at Rocky Mountain ProductCamp 2010.

New is Easy but Right is Hard: Hacking Product ManagementBernard Leong
Talk given on 15 Nov 2013, in Hackers & Painters (http://http://hackersandpainters.sg/), Singapore @ Blk 71.
Synopsis: A great product is a synthesis of technology and business thinking. How do we decide what goes into the product and determine the roadmap of the product? How do we establish the balance between the business and technology of the product? In this session, we discuss some interesting lessons learned on product management and why both business leaders and technologists don't get it.
Slides from the 'Essentials of Product Management' workshop at General Assembly in London, June 2013
ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP
The first step in making an idea reality is to understand product management. There is a huge amount of work between the idea stage and the coding stage, and this Saturday workshop will help you understand what needs to be accomplished.
We will start the day off by learning what the product management role encompasses and what the managing process is like. We'll also cover a product's feasibility and the various stages of—and ways to approach—the product development process. Through group work and hands-on practice, we'll look at the MVP (Minimum Viable Product) philosophy to test and validate your plans, and move on to identify the other more technical tools needed to start and evaluate the building process.
TAKEAWAYS
Part 1: The Product Manager role & the Product Management Process
Part 2: The Customer and MVP
- Learn to break an idea into its primary parts to assess product feasibility
- Explain the purpose and process of building an MVP
- Identify various ways to build and learn from an MVP
- Evolve an MVP to reach product/market fit
- Determine if product/market fit has been achieved for a product
