AWS Summit Singapore - Working Backwards from the CustomerAmazon Web Services
Huang, Innovation Advisory – Professional Services, ASEAN, AWS
Innovation starts with the working backwards from the customer. In this session, we will share how this approach plus culture and other mechanisms can enable everyone to be an innovator. Hear about how your company can build an effective system and an environment that will foster and support human creativity and drive technological progress.
The world is changing and the job force is changing with it. In today’s dynamic global economy, the most successful enterprises aren’t looking for workers who know a lot about only one thing. They are seeking employees who are nimble, curious and innovative.
The work done by lower-level accountants, computer programmers, engineers, lawyers and financial analysts is already being outsourced; soon it will be done by computers. The good jobs of the future will go to those who can collaborate widely, think broadly and challenge conventional wisdom — precisely the capacities of an entrepreneur. Kyle is sharing his journey and will illustrate the importance of developing an entrepreneurial mind-set. It's not about thinking about the first job, but a lifetime of jobs.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Editor's Notes
At the time, Giacomo's girlfriend was living 1,600 Kilometers (1,000 miles) away. Being that far away from each other and in different time zones was tough but they regularly communicated through email. Giacomo noticed the emails that he received and sent were long and beautiful representations of the relationship he and his girlfriend had together. As he would read and stare at the emails he said, "it was natural to think that these letters were the story of my life; the letters received and sent by my-self and the people (friends and girlfriend). It was the memoir of my life. At the moment it was natural." Thus, Memeoirs was conceived.
