Digital Product Management

Digital Product Management

Digital Product Management is a specialty discipline within general product management, but increasingly, just about any business will be integrating aspects of digital into their products and processes. Much focus has been put on digital product management as related to startups and new business creation. However, digital is increasingly a strategic aspect of just about any business from manufacturers to retailers. This course will not only go deeply into various aspects of business strategy, competitive analysis and lifecycle management, but digital specific issues for both pure digital products and digital aspects of traditional businesses. Of course we'll cover product roadmapping and product management for Web and Mobile. And while we'll be looking at a lot of the "How To Do It" technologies, (Minimum Viable Product definition, Agile Methods, Product Creation from Wireframes to Code), we're also going to go over a wide variety of digital business models. We're going to look at a lot of the "Whys" and think about "What are the right things to do." These are the questions Product Managers need to answer for customers, co-workers, their businesses and stockholders.

This course is the result of decades or Product Management leadership, team building and mentorship. Most of the material comes from hands on use in training or mentoring product managers or answering specific questions practitioners have faced in the field.

The slides in the presentation are based on real world presentations done over time. The narrative intenationally closely follows the slides so that anyone who happens to use the course on a small device with challenging display can still hear everything and anyone who wants to skip the listening could more quickly go through the slides.
