Stage-Gate success: How the social web drives product developmentNetworked Insights
Social data is becoming increasingly important in the new product development processes of many companies. In particular, manufacturers are tapping into social conversations as they explore new product ideas in order to learn what consumers are interested in and talking about. Later, when launch is imminent, social channels are becoming a key factor in setting media and advertising strategies.
One of the secrets of successful technology companies is the capability and capacity of their product management function. Awareness for product management need arises from signs such as disconnect between the strategic vision of the CEO and day-to-day product development activities, lack of communication and coordination between engineering, marketing, sales, finance and legal groups, missed launch dates, or lost opportunities in competitive situations with large accounts. This Technology Multipliers webinar provides a comprehensive overview of product management concepts, process, and keys to success for technology companies.

As veterans of any enterprise software implementation
know all too well, risks to program success increase
dramatically if the organization isn’t aligned around
key objectives, investments, and timelines.
But what does organizational alignment really entail, especially for
large-scale PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) initiatives that cross
multiple functional, regional, and process boundaries?
Agile Is Killing Me! Product Camp Austin 2010Paul Brownell
Agile is killing me! - Managing your time when development goes Agile
When software engineering transforms to an Agile methodology, big changes are in store for Product Managers. The planning process becomes a regular occurrence instead of a once-a-year event. The requirements process morphs from lots of documentation up front to continuous conversations and progressive elaboration. All of these changes can wreak havoc on a Product Manager's schedule and can blur the lines of responsibility beyond recognition. The workload can increase more than 60%, especially if you have both Product Manager and Product Owner responsibilities.
In this session we will share successful techniques to adapt to Agile including: dealing with role conflict, adapting to global engineering teams, and organizational models. This will be presented in a Town Hall format, where the audience will also be invited to offer their best practices for each of the challenges discussed.

This is our general framework for our 100 odd product offerings. This is a level 2 document that tries to transform the Level 1 visions towards product realization. It offers more details and uses industry , domain frameworks that assist in transforming vision to next level of delivery. typically used by board members and senior managers.
This presentation covers key aspects of Dual Track Agile and provides real-world examples and case studies. It also gives some background on the Discovery and Framing framework and is meant for practitioners who have been using Lean-Agile methodology for at least a year.
While the slides do not describe UCD (User-Centered Design), Pair Programming, TDD (Test Driven Development), or DDD (Domain Driven Development), these concepts are assumed in the approach. That's how VMware Pivotal builds great products.
The approach described here is only ideal for Lean-Agile methodology.

KPI Partners E-Book: The Project Analytics FrameworkKPI Partners
This e-book discusses the goals and objectives of project-based analytics.
There is a saying that if it cannot be measured, it cannot be managed. Traditionally, projects have used schedules and budgets to monitor progress. This only provides part of the answer. It does not address other variables.
Just because a project comes in on time and on budget does not mean it is a success. The deliverables may be of poor quality, and there may be dozens of outstanding issues. A much broader view is required to insure a project’s ultimate success.
The Project Analytics framework presented in this e-book details the elements of a complete project analytics framework and how Oracle Project Analytics meets the needs of this framework.
"The primary goal of a Project Analytics system is to help project stakeholders meet project objectives in an optimized manner while honoring the project constraints."
History shows that projects that are carefully managed, large or small, are considered most successful both in the short and the long term. Project Analytics systems help manage projects in almost all cases.
