World-Class Product Management

Re-Defining the Product Management Function

Experiential approaches to make your product management world class.

Authors: Ralf Hendrik Kleb and Dr. Martin Möhrle

The product managers of the future need to think like the CEO of the product. They are the glue that bind many functions that touch product engineering, design, sales, marketing, operations, finance, legal, and others. Their role is expanding due to the growing importance of data analytics, an increased focus on customer experience design, and the evolution of product development processes and methods.

Many companies are either engeneering or sales driven. Their product managers are either technologists focusing on technological solutions or business-oriented maximizing specific sales metrics. While both archetypes might be equally successful in their business, many CEOs see the need to review and redesign their product management function in the light of our digital world.
