What are the Strategic Aspects of Product Management?

Product Strategy and Product Marketing  are the key activities to be successful in Product Management.
Product managers with engineering backgrounds have software development and technical aspects as strength areas. Hence, these product managers are operationally very effective. They are awesome at working with scrum teams and other agile product development aspects.
 
However, “Operational effectiveness is not a strategy”. – Michael Porter
The objective of product strategy is to deliver superior value for your customers as compared to your competition.
“Create wealth for the company by creating value for the customer”

We see a gap in software companies today where product managers are product experts and technology experts, but they lack market expertise and are not focused on customer problems, rather they are more focused on solutions.
We bridge this gap by training product managers, project managers, program managers and business/product analysts.
