Sydney Workshop: Managing Stakeholders and Priorities

Managing Stakeholders and Priorities: A One Day Workshop for Product Managers
Cohosted by Brainmates and Rich Mironov
Where: Brainmates, Level 6 / 100 Clarence St, Sydney, Australia
When: 1 March 2018, 8:45am – 5:00 pm

(A past event, included for those interested in similar workshops and content)

This interactive workshop on managing stakeholders and priorities will help product managers improve their understanding and skills for working with executives and other functional groups. We will frame their main challenges, then look at specific tools/techniques that product managers can use to drive decisions/strategies.

Attendees will start the day identifying their own stakeholder challenges, and the group will vote up which issues to tackle during the day. Perennial topics include:

  • Product portfolio investment models versus feature factories
  • Addressing interrupts and too many requests, given a limited engineering team
  • Validating customer problems before adopting proposed solutions
  • Executive listening/learning styles
  • Why managing upward is an essential product management skill
  • Building trust with Engineering and other key organizations
  • Helping define the limits/boundaries of your product management role

Attendees should currently be product managers. The day will be highly interactive, so come prepared to share insights and argue about approaches.

All attendees will receive a copy of Rich Mironov’s “The Art of Product Management.”
