Business Skills for Product Managers
This customizable workshop is designed to elevate your team's product management capabilities. By focusing on essential business leadership skills, you'll empower your team to make strategic decisions, influence key stakeholders, and drive better business outcomes.
About the Workshop
The imperative for product managers and their teams to be agile, strategically oriented business people is vital to company success. Product managers must contribute to the firm’s transformation, especially with more digital products in the portfolio.
The value proposition for Business Skills for Product Managers is enhanced when key cross-functional team members participate and gain an appreciation for product management and to clarify roles and responsibilities. This fine-tunes the ability to think strategically, prioritize work, act with agility, and make better decisions.
The foundation for this workshop is the Business Acumen Handbook, written by Steven Haines, the “bible” of business acumen used by some of the world’s largest and most prestigious companies.
Customization
When training is a building block of your company’s evolution and transformation, you’ll benefit from a partner who can guide you on that journey. Customization projects usually involve an organizational assessment, where competency or other gaps are surfaced. Those gaps are woven into the goals so that a finely focused training and development program can be developed and deployed. Alternatively, we may work with a designated team of subject matter experts. In this scenario, we review that actual workshop (or workshops) and identify areas that must be aligned with key processes, terminology, or tools. A pilot delivery is used to test and learn before a broad rollout in your organization.
This workshop got my team to work cross-functionally and see the 'why' behind the decisions they are making.
This workshop includes:
- Access to our Product Management Certification Program
- One year of access to over 50 of our Whiteboard Videos and Product Management Leadership Summit Videos
- An electronic copy of our Product Management Template Pack
- A copy of our Product Management Framework
Business Skills for Product Managers is the perfect platform for product managers and their teams to learn their jobs, earn empowerment, and deliver results.
