The Age of Alignment Part II: Getting Strategy-Driven Performance Measurement...Pearl Meyer
Our December webinar explored a fundamental question that was raised by the NACD Blue Ribbon Commission on Strategy Development: “Does your company’s incentive structure reinforce or unintentionally undermine its chosen strategy?”
During that webinar, I talked with my colleague on the Blue Ribbon Commission, Pearl Meyer and Partners’ Steve Van Putten, along with Michael Ng who is with us again today. We discussed the alignment of business strategy and compensation, the role of the Board, the hallmarks of a properly aligned program and examples of various approaches to design, monitoring and revision.
Today, we will build on that topic and take an in-depth look at how Boards can implement the right performance measures to ensure a compensation program that will be an effective tool for driving corporate strategy. With Pearl Meyer and Partners’ Managing Director Matt Turner taking the lead, we will look at measurement selection and mix, and practical concerns for measurement, goal setting and the on-going administration and governance of a winning program.

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
