1. Global Product Management Talk On
Product Expertise With Teresa
Torres, VP Products, AfterCollege
Teresa Torres, Vice President, Products, AfterCollege, Inc.
Discusses Developing Product Expertise
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PRLog (Press Release) - Sep. 22, 2013 - ALBANY, Calif. -- Teresa
Torres comments, "In talking with founders, investors, product folks,
designers, and engineers, here in Silicon Valley, I’m starting to realize
that product management is still grossly under-developed. At many
startups, the function, if it exists at all, is nothing more than translating
feedback into feature lists, prioritizing that list, and calling it a product
roadmap."
"I've met countless product professionals who are interested in
mastering their craft. One of the most common questions I get is, how do
we get better at building great products. This is a hard question to
answer. What skills should we develop? How much of product success
is luck? What does it mean to be a product expert?"
We'll explore these questions and many more in this one hour chat.
