💗You and @ezinneudezue 💗 the heart of product management

Excellent talk, @jalmendares!! @NYProduct

Head of Product ++ takes on additional teams but continues to drive forward product strategy - @gpena breaks down the executive roles available to product leaders at #nypc

Where can you go beyond product leadership? @gpena shares three options to consider: 1. Head of Product++ 2. COO/GM 3. Chief Strategy Officer #nypc

"The next step in building trust is 'How well do you know me and my preferences?'" - Ray Flournoy from @Etsy at #nypc

Ray Flournoy from @Etsy established a hybrid solution to internationalization - every team is responsible for their product area's global audience, but also supported by a specialty Localization & Translation Team #nypc

Victoria Teshome from @Greenhouse shares how they use in-product guidance to mitigate unconscious bias and promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in hiring "Nudges are well-timed, research-backed reminders that bring awareness to ones own bias" #nypc

"Bringing others along isn't because you have...it's because you want to, choose to, and value what it brings. And how it makes you a better product manager." - @ezinneudezue #nypc

"At #nypc, @ezinneudezue shares that Product's role is: ""Achieve business success by meeting customer needs through digital product product solutions"" 1) Customer Advocate 2) Drive Clarity 3) Bring Others Along 4) Have The Courage To Choose 5) See around corners"

"I'm a big believer that simplicity is the winner. Easy, effortless products are the ones that have the highest engagement and loyalty." - @ekinariwala at #nypc

"During the peak of the pandemic, the demographic we saw increase the most was people who were 50+" - @ekinariwala at #nypc

Biggest impact from covid? "The entire healthcare system had to digitize overnight" - @ekinariwala at #nypc

"Want to get better buy-in for a product project? Build a narrative that aligns to the company goals." - @BreanaMJones at #nypc

"Rise above your title, act like a CEO, and have an outsized impact on the ultimate growth and success of your organizations" - @Nate_Stewart at #nypc

"Treat organizational changes and challenges as if they are 'product challenges'" - @Nate_Stewart on how he drove critical product strategy changes at @CockroachDB #nypc

"Use system dynamics to zoom out and think about how the whole ecosystem works" - e.g. a low match rate could be because you don't have enough data about the customer. Make sure your key profile building questions are surfaced early in the journey! -- @jalmendares at #nypc

"Find and ideate for the extremes" - non-average users often need specific content surfaced to them -- @jalmendares sharing wisdom at #nypc

@kevinyien @justbalbi @gpena @Nate_Stewart Lastly...speaker segments are broken into 45-60min chunks with breaks in between so you have time to stretch your legs or participate in networking. 🙂

@kevinyien @justbalbi @gpena @Nate_Stewart The speakers are awesome and with HD webcams & professional mics the delivery will be hi-quality. The sponsors are hiring and/or providing promotions to attendees. The networking will be small groups so authentic connection can happen.

The best product conference I've attended year after year is the @NYProduct conference. They've got a great set of speakers this year like @gpena and @Nate_Stewart. Highly recommended! nyproductconference.com
