<h3><strong>Roadmapping: Best Practices for Determining "What's Next"</strong></h3>
<h3><strong>PDMA Learning and Networking Event</strong></h3>
<h3><strong>Thursday, February 20, 2014</strong></h3>
<h3><strong>6:00 - 8:00 PM</strong></h3>
<p>Your Oregon Chapter of the Product Development and Management Association (PDMA) - the folks who bring you ProductCamp Portland – and Pragmatic Marketing invite you to a February Learning and Networking Event featuring a special moderated panel focused on the challenges of product roadmapping.</p>
<p>Good Product Managers are the CEOs of their product. They have a vision, and communicate it effectively, for how their product will grow, evolve, and successfully meet its key objectives. The product roadmap is one of the product manager's key instruments for laying out this vision in more concrete terms, but it's inherently full of challenges. This session will tap into panelists experience to uncover best practices for road mapping including critical factors for feature prioritization, political considerations, and how best to communicate them internally and externally.</p>
<p>Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from three top local product executives on this compelling and challenging area of product management.</p>
<h3>Panelists:</h3>
<h3><strong>Bill Lynch - Co-Founder and Advisor, Jive Software</strong></h3>

Jive grew from two co-founders to a team of almost 700 globally and a successful IPO in December 2011. Today, Bill is an advisor to local startups, organizes networking events for area Product Managers, and serves as the Entrepreneur in Residence at the Portland Development Commission. Bill has a BS in computer science from the University of Iowa.</p>
<h3><strong>Andy Mallinger – Director of Product, Iovation</strong></h3>

<p>The Portland Data Management user group (DAMA) is committed to thought-provoking presentations that you can apply to your work.</p>
<p>Data is the lifeblood of just about every organization and functional area today. As businesses struggle to come to grips with the data tsunami, it is even more critical to focus on data as an asset that directly supports business imperatives as other organizational assets do. Organizations across most industries attempt to address data opportunities (e.g. Big Data) and data challenges (e.g. data quality) to enhance business unit performance. Unfortunately however, the results of these efforts frequently fall far below expectations due to haphazard approaches. Overall, poor organizational data management (OM) capabilities are the root cause of many of these failures. This workshop will cover three lessons as illustrated in examples, which will help you to establish realistic OM plans and expectations, and help demonstrate the value of such actions to both internal and external decision makers.</p>
<p>Among others, you'll walk away with three takeaways:</p>
<ul>
<li>
That organizational thinking must change: Value-added data management practices must be considered and included as a vital part of your business 's strategy.
</li>
<li>
Walk before you run with data focused initiatives: Understand and implement necessary data management prerequisites as a foundation, then build upon that foundation.
</li>
<li>
That there are no silver bullets: Tools alone are not the answer. Specifying business requirements, business practices and data governance are almost always more important.

<p>You know the pain: there are so many features you want to build and bugs you want to fix, but there's not enough time to do it all. How should you prioritize? How can you align your product roadmap with your business goals?</p>
<p>We've all wasted time and money building things that nobody wanted, and we've neglected features and UX improvements that could've made a difference. The question is, how do we know what's the optimal way to use our development hours?</p>
<p>These are some of the topics we'll probably discuss:</p>
<p>• Jobs to Be Done (JTBD) framework to align features with business goals</p>
<p>• Scrum, Agile and Kanban frameworks to prioritize issues and manage dev teams</p>
<p>• How to incorporate user feedback into our product roadmap</p>
<p>• How to manage remote teams effectively</p>
<p>• The Lean way of testing assumptions to avoid building things that nobody wants</p>
<p>We're looking forward to sharing what I've learned from my mistakes building Billy, and learning from your experiences as well.</p>
<p>Coffee, tea and draft beer will be provided. Come hang out with other SaaS founders and share your story!</p>
