Description

A winning product needs more than a “if you build it, they will come” business plan. Leaders of software-powered products and services have a wide variety of frameworks to discover customer problems, ideate solutions, generate customer feedback, manage product backlogs and deliver products.  What is missing is a system of integrated frameworks to clearly identify, quantify and maximize the value of the product – for both the customer and for the organization.

This talk will introduce core frameworks to demystify this vital dimension of product management.

Learning Objectives:

We will explore questions such as:

  • How do I determine the price of my product?
  • What is the impact of my business model on the architecture?
  • How could I add more revenue generating capabilities to an existing product?
Attendees will be introduced to a powerful framework to support decision-making that will improve a product’s profitability.
