In a 21st century environment we need to respond rapidly to change. We also need to be able to develop and iterate our product quickly, but we mustn’t sacrifice quality – we want to know that our product is working for our customers.
In this workshop we will introduce you to key lean product development concepts, as well as best practices that support frequent, reliable product delivery in an agile environment. Learn how to analyse the market, flesh out your ideas, identify risks, and validate assumptions. We’ll also touch on the post-launch process of tracking performance, prioritising development of new features, and managing stakeholders.
This is a hands-on full day session where you will put concepts into practice by formulating hypothesis and shaping an initial prototype or early-stage release. Whether you’re considering a career in product management or launching your own digital product, this course will equip you with practical tools and techniques to quickly shape your idea into a successful product.
Takeaways
Students will learn:
– The importance of iterative and purpose-driven development in bringing a product to market
– The processes of Problem Statement definition and Minimum Viable Product (MVPs) creation
– How taking a disciplined approach and identifying the right KPIs to track success enables us to be flexible and adapt to change
– The mutually supporting roles of technical and non-technical practices in helping us to continually improve.
