The future is hard to tease out, but here’s what will happen in product management’s future. (CC 2.0 by PunkToad). Earlier this year Janna Bastow of ProdPad put out a call for opinions on the future of product management. I quickly responded then. And realized later it would also make a good blog post.

“Launching isn’t hard. Coming up with an idea isn’t hard. Making something isn’t hard. It’s everything that comes after that.” – Jason Fried. Having written previously about the importance of monetisation to Product Managers it came as a shock recently to hear that my own product, Newsmart (a DowJones venture), is to be shuttered after nearly 3 years.

Guest Post by: Sean Echevarria (Mentee, Session 3, The Product Mentor) [Paired with Mentor, Dustin Levy]. Two years ago I threw myself into the deep end of the Silicon Alley tech scene here in NYC. I joined a growing user experience agency called Motivate Design, without having any real knowledge about UX and its function within product strategy.

Being “outside-in”, “outcome-based”, and “market-driven” is particularly important for creating successful products. The problem is that just saying the words is not enough to help someone shift their thinking. For those of us who are already thinking this way, the phrases become touchstones or short-hand. For folks who are not there yet, these may sound like platitudes or empty words.

Why you need a thirty-year plan (yes, thirty) -. “There is no point in having a 5-year plan in this industry. With each step forward, the landscape you’re walking on changes. So we have a pretty good idea of where we want to be in six months, and where we want to be in thirty years. And every six.

Each week I scour articles, wading through the dogs, and bringing you the best insights to help product managers and innovators be heroes. Monetization + customer problem + jobs-to-be-done = product management. How a product generates revenue is sometimes left to be figured out after the product is developed, or even after it is launched. We all know good examples of this, including Google.
Speaker: Scott Sehlhorst
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.

Why do we go to startup competitions? “ I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed. ” Michael Jordan. One of the fastest growing paths for raising funds and awareness to your startup is competitions. The number of startup competitions seems to have grown tremendously over the past few years. In fact, it is rare to find a conference today that does not include some sort of startup competition, regardless of vertical.
