This session provides an overview of how to do product portfolio management and release planning at an enterprise level. Lean-Agile methods do not necessarily mean to move forward in a totally blind manner – discovering what you will be working on for the business just before you do it.

For many organizations, a clear plan of improved business capability is an absolute must.

This session will show you the approach to undertake to accomplish this.

Outline:

• Why our current planning methods don’t work
• The importance of product portfolio management
• Creating a release plan for an agile organization

Primary target audience of session: Product managers, directors, analysts and team leads

Also useful for: Executives and managers
