TL; DR: Remote Agile Transitions We are used to saying the Scrum is a perfect probe for organizations, as it will reliably discover all dysfunctionalities. Since the pandemic has forced many of us to work remotely, this unique capability has been kicked into overdrive regarding remote agile transitions.

Senior leaders often want to see months - or years - long product roadmaps. But these predictions often do not create products your customers will love. While customers aren’t fickle, they often do not know what they want until you give them something to try. That means product leaders need to integrate experiments and options into their roadmaps. In this presentation, Johanna Rothman will explain: How to limit the duration of a roadmap and show possible options.

We've all heard of big organizations where the top management said, “No need to ever be back in the office. Work from home, as long as you want.” And, the Wall Street Journal has this article, Business Travel Won’t Be Taking Off Soon Amid Coronavirus (you might need to subscribe to see the article).

For nearly a century, companies held to the same principles for driving growth: deliver value to stakeholders and employees first, then to customers. Over the last 10 years, this thinking has come undone. Crowded markets mean companies can no longer assume they are the only, or best, choice. The rise of the subscription model challenges businesses to place equal emphasis on conversion and retention , or risk spending themselves into oblivion.

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 our previous blog, we emphasized the importance of having a Chief Entrepreneur and Ambassador as the top executives dedicated to create and manage new growth in the company. However, having these roles alone does not necessarily mean you will have an effective innovation pipeline. They could end up becoming just figureheads for innovation.

Prototypes and Minimum Viable Products (MVP) are a critical part of product development. Sure, you could dive right in, spend months developing an expensive product with all the bells and whistles.

What’s so compelling about the book, even six years after its publication, is that it’s built around the principle that there are no easy answers or quick fixes in leadership.
