What is next for Product Ownership?
Good question. We wanted to explore the future of the product landscape, learn about how existing and future technology can impact the product life cycle and how product owners/managers are integral to organisational and customer success.
So, we hosted a networking event on Thursday 21st October at our Leeds HQ as an invitation for an open discussion. Our guest speaker and facilitator, Bob Holt, Head of Product Digital Product at retailer N Brown had the crowd engaged. He discussed his progressive and impressive career journey from product management to leading product teams. Providing his expertise and experience, he delved deep into some observations over his time, predictions for the future, and credible stories that shined a light on the impact product management has on the customer journey.
The event was attended by a range of diverse individuals in the product ownership department, who were eager to share their insight, learn and listen. The event began with an icebreaker through to a discussion and interactive talk from our speaker Bob Holt.
As our attendees sipped cold beverages and tucked into a few pizzas, they talked amongst themselves, discussing different perspectives of their roles, their career journey and, of course, which slice of pizza was their favourite!
The atmosphere breathed innovation, and it was fantastic to see many levels, from leadership to graduate-level, come together and bounce off each other’s knowledge.
