Product managers requires product vision and a strategic view to conceive and define a product for the right market at the right time, and the tactical sense to shepherd the product into existence.

The success of the product or service is based on the value provided to the customer and the resulting value to the organization. This webinar provides an introduction into the complexities of the product life cycle and the role of the product manager. What You Will Learn After this one-hour session, learners will be able to: Identify the product life cycle and work within it Define the role and responsibilities of the product manager Walk through the product management process from idea to market
