Panel discussion: The Changing Role of Product Management - Ideas and Strategies from The Trenches

Few people in the world have had an opportunity to observe and even be part of product management and development in leading global companies than our conference guests and panelists. Joe Justice, Jochen Krebs and Martin Matouš bring different but invaluable perspectives on the ever-changing world of product leadership. How do most successful companies on our planet approach product management? How has Agile managed to shift devops in 20+ years? What is going to be the differentiator in ten years from now? And should we treat our organization as a product too? Open your mind and expect the unexpected when listening to this discussion of product and agile veterans. And don’t miss your chance to influence the discussion in Slido.
