Humanising Product Management: How To Build Adaptive Product

Product Management rhetoric typically focuses on technical craftsmanship, and the human elements of Product Management are sometimes overlooked.

Product Managers need to understand human behaviours, and in today’s episode Jade explores the human aspects of Product Management – the adaptive skills product folk need – with our guest Nick Coster, Co-Founder of Brainmates.

Nick has been working in Product Management since the mid-’90s. In 2004, Nick joined Adrienne Tan in founding Brainmates to champion the professional role of Product Management by delivering consulting and training to product folk.

In this episode we explore: 

✓    What does an adaptive product team look like

✓    The key skills needed within Adaptive Product teams

✓    The impact of Product across the broader business

✓    The future of Product Management

 

Brainmates has been championing Product Management in Australia and around the world for over 16 years and run their ‘Essentials of Product Management’ course at least once a month. If you are a Product Manager or lead a team of Product Managers, then this course is a great way to get working more effectively to deliver better customer outcomes that hit business goals.
