WEBINAR: How to Get Support for Your Project by Clarifying Your PurposeGoLeanSixSigma.com
Most of us are clear on what our project is about, how to measure success and who is on the team. But we're not always clear on why we're doing it. "We're going to decrease defects!" sounds great, but why should anyone care? "We're removing waste!" - again, what's in it for the people around you? Clarifying the "why" or purpose behind a project will engage people in the best way. Come join this 1-hour Introductory webinar and find process friends you never knew you had.

Product management – a little known and poorly understood discipline. A title that can mean 10 different things in 10 different companies. A job with few standard requirements – anyone can do it, but not anyone can do it well.
And yet, there are a few common themes that you should know well and you should think about deeply and frequently if you find yourself in charge of your company’s products, at any level, at any size, with any title. Drawing from a broad set experiences in and out of tech, this deck includes an experienced Product Manager's point of view on how to do it well.
People want to hear your story! But even those of us who can tell a good story often stumble when it comes to telling the story of our own work. Storyboards help others learn from you – they help leadership appreciate their problem-solving bench strength. This 1-hour introductory webinar will guide you to showcase your project in a way that others can understand and enjoy. Spread the good word with a good Storyboard!

Creating Alignment for Agile Change - Agile and Beyond 2015Jason Little
It's not about the change canvas, it's about the conversations that facilitate the creation of them. This talk was about how to guide alignment with techniques from Lean Change Management accompanied by a story from April Jefferson about how she used these techniques at GM and University of Michigan
The Build, Measure, Learn loop is at the center of the Lean Startup approach, which is becoming increasingly popular among companies of all sizes. While the framework calls for very UX-friendly processes, such as collecting iterative feedback and focusing on building a Minimal Viable Product (MVP) required for doing so, the way most companies implement Build, Measure, Learn is broken and reinforces bad old habits of building first, assuming later. Many engineering teams use Build Measure Learn as an excuse to jump into building a skeleton version of a product, assuming that they can only get good feedback once they have working code. While most of us know you should incorporate research earlier, and the Lean Startup approach actually calls for it, it can be hard to change the minds of development-centered thinkers.
In this session, I’ll provide an overview of the Lean Startup and Build Measure Learn framework, pros and cons of these approaches, and tips for teams to utilize these approaches to infuse learning into their process as soon as possible.

Mike Monteiro: This is the golden age of design! …and we're screwedwebdagene
Everywhere I look companies are hiring designers! Two hundred over here! A thousand over here! We need a lot of them and we need them fast. Finally! Companies have come to understand the importance of design in building successful products and services. Isn't that great?
Having a product is great but do you have a brand that captures consumer imagination and is built for the long-run?
In the startup world, especially, the focus on short-term growth often means that investment in longer-term elements, ie brand, fall by the wayside. Whether a startup or trillion dollar business, you should never stop investing in your brand.
A brand is so much more than a logo or a colour scheme and your values have to mean more than some post-its stuck on a wall. It's everything you do, say, think and create. It's how you hire, retain staff, build culture, provide solutions to problems and acquire customers.
With increasing competition and greater consumer demand for brands to stand for something, to neglect investing in your brand because it seems too hard, time-intensive, costly or simply, unimportant, is a mistake.
Here are some simple steps to help you think about and build greater structure into the brands you're building and the stories you're telling along with examples of brands who nail purpose and some who miss the mark.
