Generating Value From Your Strategy
We all want to be part of organizations with a clear purpose and great strategy for the future.
And no matter how we are organized, products are the core of the value we deliver. And product managers are at the core of unleashing value.
For most organizations, it isn’t a lack of good ideas, but how they organize to address opportunities that makes a difference.
Are you oriented around workflows? Functional groups? Processes? Or are you part of a cross-functional group?
And let’s not get started with development groups struggling with Agile implementations.
While we can’t boil the ocean in one webinar, David Dunning and Pamela Schure will break down the different components of successfully turning a strategy into a Product or service that sells.
Common Market Challenges Faced by Product Manager Role
Learn about:
overseeing a product's development: the six steps needed to take a product from initial concept to final market launch;
overseeing the product's launch: the six steps from researching the product to product sales analytics;
and overseeing the product's in-market success.
5 Key Roles on an Agile Scrum Team.pdf
Launching a successful product is no easy feat. Behind every great product is a cohesive, well-aligned product team with clearly defined roles and accountabilities. Simply put, successful product management is 100% a team sport. Learn the distinct responsibilities of each role and how to ensure they're effectively working together to build the right products, for the right users. We'll discuss opportunities that Product Managers can leverage to better collaborate with their Product Owner, Scrum Master, UX, and Engineering Manager to deliver critical product artifacts. You'll learn proven techniques you can use, such as the Team Working Agreement, to ensure there is clarity, trust, and clear accountability on your product team.
What You Will Learn:
The key roles and responsibilities of the Product Manager, Product Owner, Scrum Master, UX, and Engineering Manager
How a Product Manager will collaborate with each role to deliver critical product artifacts
How to create greater alignment and trust among the product team
The Integral Role of Product Marketing in Achieving Product Success
Product Managers get products on the shelf. Product Marketing Managers get them off the shelf. But, in fact, the roles are deeply intertwined, requiring the engagement of both parties from concept inception through product retirement. They are co-dependent roles. Both are strategic in nature and focused on achieving business success.
Naturally, there is an overlap of knowledge and tools between the two, yet each role wears different hats. This is understood all too well by Product Managers who don’t have a dedicated Product Marketing Manager as a partner. They often end up wearing both hats as they attempt to accommodate both roles, and that’s enough to give you a whopping headache.
So, what then delineates these two, critical roles in a product’s success? Just what is a Product Marketing Manager, what do they do, and why might you want to be one? In this webcast, we’ll explain.
Accounting as a Product
Accounting is changing at a rapid rate thanks to digitalization. Let's have a look at what accounting is, its history, and the trends molding it into something beyond just looking at numbers from the past to a discipline that can support real-time decision making.
Applying Jobs-to-be-Done for True Product Innovation
What do milkshakes, ironing shirts, and the iPod have in common? These diverse products have all benefited strongly from the application of the Jobs-to-Be-Done (JTBD) framework.
As Product Managers, we often face the challenge of keeping ourselves and our stakeholders focused on the problem space long enough to illuminate the customer’s real needs. Yet, when defining those needs, too often we embed our presumptions about known or anticipated solutions, making our needs analysis merely a description of the solution we already assumed. That kills innovation.
The JTBD framework tackles this problem. While it has gained significant momentum in recent years, there are still misconceptions and unfortunate misapplications of this valuable framework. As we’ll demonstrate in this webcast, the proper application of JTBD enables us to discover the ultimate needs and goals of our customers, empowering us to create truly relevant and more innovative products.
What You Will Learn:
Why the JTBD framework is so valuable
How to apply various levels of Jobs thinking to your personas
How companies have applied the JBTD framework to various products
From Outputs to Outcomes, Achieving Success with OKRs
As a PM you want to contribute to business outcomes by achieving product outcomes with the outputs (features) you create. The first step in this journey is to determine how you will measure success by asking the question “What does this feature do for the business?” followed by, “How will we measure success?” To have this conversation within your organization you need to first understand the differences between Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and Objectives and Key Results (OKRs). They are related, but each tells a different story.
Join us as we uncover the keys to understanding customer engagement and how that engagement will impact your business. We’ll discuss KPIs like leading product indicators, such as product signups, to lagging business outcomes such as annual contract value. By the end of this webinar, you will have the know how to track progress towards achieving business goals, not just keeping count of how many features you’re releasing. Your executives and stakeholders will appreciate the difference!
What You Will Learn:
· The difference between KPIs and OKRs and the importance of each
· Understand which KPIs move the needle for your customers
· How leading product KPIs lead to lagging business outcomes – and ultimate business success
Accelerate Your PM Career in 2022!
As a Product Manager or Product Leader, you must ride the wave of rising salaries and expanding career paths in product management as you shift toward product-led growth.

Customer Journey Maps – Your Secret Weapon to Driving Product Adoption
“Our product isn’t as successful as we expected.”
“Product Manager, why is that? Does the product lack key features? Is our messaging confusing?”
Commence inter-departmental finger pointing!
As Product Managers, an intimate knowledge of our customers is our greatest resource for answering tough questions. More than a mere flow of activities, a customer journey helps us learn the “why” behind our customer’s behavior, from their first awareness of our product, to hopefully a long, loyal relationship with them. It’s a data-informed technique we use to coordinate cross-functional efforts and inspire smart decisions.
Learn how to develop your Product Manager superpower: true customer insight. We’ll discuss how you can leverage customer journey maps to better drive adoption, deliver value, and delight customers.
What You Will Learn:
• How to leverage customer journey maps to understand customers, solve problems, influence decisions, and create customer value
• How customer journey maps support the seamless alignment of the “Whole Product”
• Tools to create an effective customer journey map – even for complex B2B situations
Product Manager vs Product Owner
iPhone or Android? Half full or half empty? DCU or MCU? Is one ‘better’ or can they co-exist? Questions like these are sure to stir emotions, invoke strong points of view, and heated discussion.
For product professionals, perhaps the most frequently debated issue – the one we can’t ever seem to escape is: Product Manager or Product Owner? Or Both? Why are there two roles that seem to be so closely related, yet are different? Do we need them both or can one person do both jobs?
We could simply say that ‘Product Managers are externally focused on discovery and strategy while Product Owners are internally focused on delivery and execution,’ but that belies the nuance of the roles, and how they interact.
We’re going to give you a practical orientation to navigating these roles as an individual contributor, and as a product leader. And we’re going to have some fun in the process!
What You Will Learn:
How the Product Manager and Product Owner Roles compare in scope and key responsibilities – and where they overlap.
When to keep these roles separate, and when it’s best to combine them into a single role, and what the trade-offs are.
What to do if you are in one of these roles and must work with the other role.
Where each of the above approaches has worked well, with real-world examples
Writing Product Requirements: Part 2 Increasing ROI and Alignment
We know one of the biggest challenges Product Managers face is writing detailed requirements that empower your teams to create customer-centric products.
In our previous webcast, Writing Product Requirements That Amplify Customer Needs, Colleen O’Rourke gave you a good foundation to build your requirements informed by customer research. Since you asked so many great questions during the discussion, we knew we should spend more time on this important topic. You wanted to know more about the practical ways to write effective requirements, how to justify the ROI of features, and how to address the challenges of effectively defining a Minimal Viable Product (MVP).
In this month’s webcast, Tom Evans will dive deeper into these challenges. He’ll share tips and tricks that he has learned over the years to help you enable more effective team dynamics between product management and product development to ensure you are delivering meaningful value to your customers.
What You Will Learn:
How to use Story Mapping to refine problem scenarios and break down epics into user stories that create clarity across your team
How to optimize the distribution of responsibilities on requirements
How to think creatively about MVPs for new products and next generation products
How to measure value delivery for products and features
Writing product requirements that amplify customer needs
In our previous webcast, Robyn Brooks explored using Voice of the Customer techniques to better understand your customers’ needs to find “moments of truth,” and identify how your product can help them along their customer journey. But how do you take the insights that you gather during this process and convert them into detailed requirements that empower your teams to create customer-centric products?
This month, Colleen O’Rourke will discuss the next steps that Product Managers must take to transform their market research insights into actionable product requirements. We’ll also look at the relationship between requirements and innovation, and how to ensure that you’re writing requirements that drive more meaningful solutions.
What You Will Learn:
• How to write requirements for both Agile and Waterfall processes
• The spectrum of information that makes up “requirements” and which of these the Product Manager is responsible for
• The key tools that every Product Manager should know to document requirements in detail
• Tips, tricks, and pitfalls to avoid when writing requirements
Harnessing the Voice of the Customer
According to the MIT Sloan Management Review, over 50% of new product launches fail. Ouch. One major contributor to these failures is not understanding customer needs.
Learning how to effectively conduct Voice of the Customer (VoC) research can help you significantly reduce your odds of failure. Insights you develop from VoC activities are critical to understanding customer needs and validate that you are delivering a superior customer experience. But how can you do this effectively? There are many approaches to conducting a VoC program. While each technique is valuable, the most powerful program includes directly interacting with the customers in your target market segments.
If you are truly vested in becoming more customer-oriented, join our webinar so you can learn to develop a structured approach to gain customer insights. When properly gathered and analyzed, customer insights will enable you to develop products that deliver a stronger value proposition and increase your chances of their success. They typically generate more revenue and are more profitable too!

In this second part of a two-part series, we’re going to continue covering one of the areas of Product Management that PMs find challenging – how to understand and beat the competition. Our Product Management Skills – Benchmark Report from 2019 identified Competitive Analysis as one of the three areas that Product Managers find most challenging. Problem is, effective Competitive Analysis can make the difference between a product that just does its job well, and a product that dominates the market.

In Part 1 of this series, we presented the big picture of Competitive Analysis, and identified the nine different dimensions of research and analysis needed to get a thorough understanding of the competitive landscape.

Predictable delivery
Product managers understand the need to be able to plan and forecast delivery dates. It is one of the foundations of building confidence with management to allow the team greater autonomy.

Unlocking Everyday Narratives: The Power of Storytelling in Marketing will teach you how to recognize stories in the moment and to recall forgotten moments that your audience needs to hear.

Customer Journey Maps – Your Secret Weapon to Driving Product Adoption
“Our product isn’t as successful as we expected.”
“Product Manager, why is that? Does the product lack key features? Is our messaging confusing?”
Commence inter-departmental finger pointing!
As Product Managers, an intimate knowledge of our customers is our greatest resource for answering tough questions. More than a mere flow of activities, a customer journey helps us learn the “why” behind our customer’s behavior, from their first awareness of our product, to hopefully a long, loyal relationship with them. It’s a data-informed technique we use to coordinate cross-functional efforts and inspire smart decisions.
Learn how to develop your Product Manager superpower: true customer insight. We’ll discuss how you can leverage customer journey maps to better drive adoption, deliver value, and delight customers.
What You Will Learn:
• How to leverage customer journey maps to understand customers, solve problems, influence decisions, and create customer value
• How customer journey maps support the seamless alignment of the “Whole Product”
• Tools to create an effective customer journey map – even for complex B2B situations
Product Manager vs Product Owner
iPhone or Android? Half full or half empty? DCU or MCU? Is one ‘better’ or can they co-exist? Questions like these are sure to stir emotions, invoke strong points of view, and heated discussion.
For product professionals, perhaps the most frequently debated issue – the one we can’t ever seem to escape is: Product Manager or Product Owner? Or Both? Why are there two roles that seem to be so closely related, yet are different? Do we need them both or can one person do both jobs?
We could simply say that ‘Product Managers are externally focused on discovery and strategy while Product Owners are internally focused on delivery and execution,’ but that belies the nuance of the roles, and how they interact.
We’re going to give you a practical orientation to navigating these roles as an individual contributor, and as a product leader. And we’re going to have some fun in the process!
What You Will Learn:
How the Product Manager and Product Owner Roles compare in scope and key responsibilities – and where they overlap.
When to keep these roles separate, and when it’s best to combine them into a single role, and what the trade-offs are.
What to do if you are in one of these roles and must work with the other role.
Where each of the above approaches has worked well, with real-world examples
Writing Product Requirements: Part 2 Increasing ROI and Alignment
We know one of the biggest challenges Product Managers face is writing detailed requirements that empower your teams to create customer-centric products.
In our previous webcast, Writing Product Requirements That Amplify Customer Needs, Colleen O’Rourke gave you a good foundation to build your requirements informed by customer research. Since you asked so many great questions during the discussion, we knew we should spend more time on this important topic. You wanted to know more about the practical ways to write effective requirements, how to justify the ROI of features, and how to address the challenges of effectively defining a Minimal Viable Product (MVP).
In this month’s webcast, Tom Evans will dive deeper into these challenges. He’ll share tips and tricks that he has learned over the years to help you enable more effective team dynamics between product management and product development to ensure you are delivering meaningful value to your customers.
What You Will Learn:
How to use Story Mapping to refine problem scenarios and break down epics into user stories that create clarity across your team
How to optimize the distribution of responsibilities on requirements
How to think creatively about MVPs for new products and next generation products
How to measure value delivery for products and features
Writing product requirements that amplify customer needs
In our previous webcast, Robyn Brooks explored using Voice of the Customer techniques to better understand your customers’ needs to find “moments of truth,” and identify how your product can help them along their customer journey. But how do you take the insights that you gather during this process and convert them into detailed requirements that empower your teams to create customer-centric products?
This month, Colleen O’Rourke will discuss the next steps that Product Managers must take to transform their market research insights into actionable product requirements. We’ll also look at the relationship between requirements and innovation, and how to ensure that you’re writing requirements that drive more meaningful solutions.
What You Will Learn:
• How to write requirements for both Agile and Waterfall processes
• The spectrum of information that makes up “requirements” and which of these the Product Manager is responsible for
• The key tools that every Product Manager should know to document requirements in detail
• Tips, tricks, and pitfalls to avoid when writing requirements
Harnessing the Voice of the Customer
According to the MIT Sloan Management Review, over 50% of new product launches fail. Ouch. One major contributor to these failures is not understanding customer needs.
Learning how to effectively conduct Voice of the Customer (VoC) research can help you significantly reduce your odds of failure. Insights you develop from VoC activities are critical to understanding customer needs and validate that you are delivering a superior customer experience. But how can you do this effectively? There are many approaches to conducting a VoC program. While each technique is valuable, the most powerful program includes directly interacting with the customers in your target market segments.
If you are truly vested in becoming more customer-oriented, join our webinar so you can learn to develop a structured approach to gain customer insights. When properly gathered and analyzed, customer insights will enable you to develop products that deliver a stronger value proposition and increase your chances of their success. They typically generate more revenue and are more profitable too!
