The most advanced cars sold today still require the driver to be aware and ready to take control. But soon, many autos won’t have any driver controls, save for the interface for inputting the destination. Set the target and the car will take care of all of the work. It sounds like science fiction, but […]
The “smarter” and more complex modern systems get, the more complicated the process required to build them becomes. Systems engineering teams working in regulated industries suffer an unfair share of the pain of product and systems development and management. In such industries, the margins of operation have always been tight, with little to no room […]
Tim Navarrette gave up his car 11 years ago. At a recent Mobility Unplugged event hosted at Jama Software, Tim shared that when he was a teenager, getting a driver’s license meant freedom from adults, and driving a car was an extension of his social life.

Product managers get requests from multiple sources: the sales team, key customers, the competition, […]
Knowing when to get an MVP to market for customer feedback—and when to keep researching and testing—is a skill product managers learn with experience. Still, even the most experienced product teams often struggle to stay in touch with their customers. Sure, we read as much as we can about our changing market, and we have our […]

No one has to make or push through more decisions than product managers. With this heightened importance and visibility product management as a discipline comes a growing online community.
