Melissa Perri (ProdUX Labs – New York) Lean Product Management
Product Management has traditionally been a waterfall process. Teams will spend months building a product, only to find out after releasing it that none of their customers wanted to use it.
Applying Lean Startup methods to Product Management can help teams create valuable products in shorter amounts of time. This talk will dive deep into the Product Management process from a Lean standpoint. We’ll discuss how the process works seamlessly on Agile teams.
I’ll share my experiences implementing Lean into my role as a Product Manager, my challenges, and how it’s completely reshaped the way I approach building products for the better.
