Everyone is rightly excited about "Artificial Intelligence", "Machine Learning" and "Large Language Models". But behind these glitzy buzzwords lies the shadowy underworld of Data Management: Few people understand it. Fewer do it right. It always takes longer than you think.

This presentation is meant to help product managers break open the black box of data management, de-mystify data buzzwords, have intelligent conversations with data people and lead the development of valuable data platforms and products.

What are the essentials of branding and how can it help you with marketing your product or services. Questions answers include: Can Branding REALLY help Drive Sales? How?

A basic principle of Product Management is understanding customer problems, but we can still struggle to properly frame the problem and know that we are focusing on the right problem. One of the most effective ways I have learned to frame the need for a product is through Jobs-to-Be-Done. When Product Managers properly apply Jobs-to-Be-Done, they are better able to identify and articulate the market problem they are solving, which then opens them to a new world of possibilities to drive innovation. This session will introduce the participants to the Jobs-to-Be-Done framework, will share examples of the concept based upon well-known products, connecting that to the innovations achieved, and then provide time for participants to apply Jobs-to-Be-Done through a group exercise.

Imagine a world where you are able to join a conversation with a small group of people interested in discussing the same topic you are, any time of the year.

Is this need already met, in annual conferences, book clubs, meetup groups and digital social media? What are the failure modes for digital discussion such as spaces, zoom or clubhouse? After a short discussion we will do a storyboarding exercise to explore our individual dreams and visions for global interest group coordination. With your permission, storyboards will be collected, digitized and shared back to the group after the session.
