As a product manager, what would you rather do?

1. Wade through a bottomless pit of customer problems, do a ton of legwork to figure out which ones are most critical to solve, and then try to align those priorities to every stakeholder agenda only to be scrutinized and questioned at every turn to the point of utter frustration?
2. Or would you rather just eliminate the biggest obstacles to the widely known customer business outcomes that are top priority across the market, know you’re delivering guaranteed customer value without question, and gain the trust of all stakeholders?

If you’re game for #2, join Product Coffee and learn how The Solutions Value Chain helps you cut to the chase on finding and addressing unmet customer needs that have real measurable strategic value and make it easier to align all stakeholders to a common set of priorities.

This event is included for free with a Product Coffee Premium membership. If you aren’t already a member, join today!
