Overview

Project managers are focused on completing a project and handing-off to operations. Product managers, on the other hand, need to continually evolve the product and grow market share.

In a fast changing IT landscape accelerated by disruptive technologies, technology driven products and services are impacting the way businesses operate. The typical project model alone is unable to support these new developments. Organisations need to adopt and adapt a product thinking mindset for businesses to survive. Project managers and IT professionals would need product thinking concepts and techniques to bridge the gap and stay relevant.

This programme is targeted for professionals who want to learn and apply product thinking concepts, processes and tools in delivering systems, services or products for the business or for internal organisation and teams.

Key Takeaways

At the end of the programme, you will be able to:
  • Learn to identify and apply suitable techniques, processes and tools in product thinking for the participants environment, with a focus on digital enablers for the product.
  • Learn to define digital product processes.
  • Learn how to lead and manage product development teams.

Who Should Attend
