TSP offers a deep-dive training program, on-the-ground practice at your company, and Certification in Product Management.
Product Management is the core competency for all companies who build products. We can’t emphasize more that you are not positioning your company for growth and longevity, unless you implement disciplined Product Management at your company.
Importance of Product Management
Product Management is the fundamental discipline at Product Companies. Most companies do not know how to do Product Management.
Typically, two very different disciplines are confused and combined: project management and Product Management. Product Managers are also often asked to schedule and track progress on the work of the product development team. Frequently, Product Managers don’t know how to balance two very different conversations: external with your customer and with your Internal company teams.
The product process at most companies is at best ad-hoc and unsystematic. In the worst case, it is arbitrary and disorganized leading to misalignment with your customers, markets, and shareholders.
