ProductTank Simulcast with Marty Cagan: Product Is Hard

Come celebrate #WorldProductDay with us! On World Product Day, we are so excited to be SIMULCASTING Marty Cagan with us from New York to speak about the hardships of Product Management and how to successfully conquer them.

About The Event

Marty has been coaching product people for many years, and mostly the questions he gets are straightforward, but occasionally he’ll get a truly tough question. The type that doesn’t have a clear cut answer, and it’s not obvious what the best course of action might be, but can really make a difference in your success. In this talk, he’ll be posing these questions, and then sharing his opinions and reasoning. Nothing pertaining to product is off limits. We’ll talk about politics, gender, culture and even (process) religion. We’ll discuss prioritization and decision making, especially when we don’t have as much data as we’d like; handling very difficult people especially senior executives; managing conflict on the team; dealing with low morale; changing company culture; regaining control of your time, and picking your battles. We will also have a Q&A where you can pose your own tough questions.

Event Details

Time: Doors open at 6:30pm, panel will begin at 7:00pm
Location: Chariot Solutions – 515 Pennsylvania Avenue – Fort Washington PA, 19034 (Directions)
