DESCRIPTION:We'll have two 20-minute talks\, each followed by 10 minutes 
 of Q&amp\;A. We'll have plenty of time at the start and end of the meetu
 p for tasty beverages and networking. --- Leveraging product principles 
 to drive better decision makingAmi Murthy\, Head of Product - Mobile at 
 eBay Classifieds Group at eBay Product principles can serve as a strong 
 complement to the product vision and strategy. I will share examples of 
 our product principles and how we have successfully used them as tools t
 o drive better and faster decisions. Ami Murthy is a product leader who 
 is excellent at building teams that create experiences which millions of
  customers LOVE and USE on a daily basis. She has experience leading div
 erse\, global teams from product conceptualization to launch\, with a pr
 oven track record of building scalable customer-centric products includi
 ng 5-star apps\, a multi-million dollar mobile product\, and market-lead
 ing e-book solutions. She is adept at driving business results and has h
 elped companies like eBay\, Intel and Amazon grow their bottom line perf
 ormance. --- What can theater teach us about software deliveryDavid Van 
 der Merwe\, Senior Product Manager at Radar I've been thinking about the
  similarities between software development and the process of producing 
 theater for a while. My wife runs a theater company and I'm constantly p
 icking her brain about the creative process and theater production as a 
 project that actually has a deadline (opening night). My hope is to shar
 e some learnings about this process and how it may apply to product mana
 gers when we need to deliver a full solution to a customer problem by a 
 committed date. I'm currently a Sr. Product Manager working at RADAR bui
 lding privacy incident response management solutions. Like many pm's\, I
  grew into a product management role somewhat through circumstance\, som
 e curiosity\, and a desire to improve customer experiences. I was born a
 nd raised in South Africa and then immigrated to the US where I've worke
 d in web marketing\, and e-commerce solutions that served both b2b and b
 2c enterprises for the last 20 years. --- Also\, thank you to our host\,
