- Gain a deep understanding of the Product Owner mindset and how to create great products by applying short learning loops.
- Apply a discovery based mindset, where you discover what to build instead of assuming you know the best thing to build.
- Learn how the Product Owner role fits with Product Management, Project Management, sponsor, the Scrum Team, and other stakeholders.
- Get practical takeaways that can help your team and organization immediately after training.
A common assumption has been that products are best developed only after deep research, to completely understand the problem space, and thus create an optimal solution. That approach may have been appropriate in some scenarios, but are less applicable in the new, post pandemic world. The best products are not known in advance, they are discovered over time.
As a Product Owner you lead the process of continual discovery where software is designed, built, and tested in small slices, and released to the market frequently, to feed a continual learning loop. Plans are continually modified based on learning, and delivering to specification is no longer considered a success, instead, success is measured by achieving positive business outcomes.
This course covers the use of Scrum, the most popular agile framework, to drive rapid learning loops to create an agile product development approach.
The session includes several hours of hands-on work where you exercise the theory and turn it into practice. After the virtual session, leave ready to advance your product, your company and your career.
Upon completion of the course, students will understand Product Owner necessities including:
- Roles: Working with the Scrum Team, Scrum Master, Product Management and other stakeholders
- Ceremonies: How to execute Backlog Refinement, Sprint Planning, and Sprint Reviews
- Artifacts: How to maintain a Product Backlog and build the ideal product
- Continual Discovery: How to go through continual learning loops to inspect your product and the vision for the product, based on evidence and data
