It’s time we put the OWNER back into product ownership! As organizations shift to Agile DevOps and product delivery, many teams are hindered by product owners who operate by proxy, lack the empowerment and authority to manage products, and are under-supported to become stewards for their product or service.
Product Owners are the CEOs of their product or service. They are more than a role on a Scrum team or glorified business analyst. We need to stop reinforcing counterproductive behaviors in our organizations and rise as thought leaders.
Whether you want to become a product owner, are new to product ownership, becoming a product management thought leader, or leading a team of product owners, this workshop will help you define what it means to be a great product owner in your context and plot a path to get there. This workshop draws from multiple blueprints and workshops developed by the Info-Tech Research Group.
