We introduce Martin Paiva, Product Manager at iTSystems. He wants to share these tips on how to be a good Product Manager: Product managers are gaining increasing importance in our profession, playing a key role in the development and success of products. They are responsible for ensuring that the team works aligned with the product vision and for managing sales strategy, planning, execution, launch, and sales tracking. Additionally, this role requires constant interaction with both the team and clients. Therefore, having a good product manager on the work team is crucial to the success of any product. Being a successful Product Manager requires a combination of skills and personal characteristics that allow you to lead a team and launch successful products to market effectively. Here are some tips to consider: Product managers usually go several steps ahead, digging into the real reasons behind people's wants and reflecting on how the product can satisfy those needs. Understanding users (research and listening), involves the ability to identify the needs of the product's users and determine their pain points. A good Product Manager must have a precise and clear vision of the product they want to launch and its position in the market. They must maintain constant communication with team members to ensure that everyone is aligned and understands the objective. They must also ensure that the product meets the company's strategy and is consistent with its overall vision. A Product Manager must have skills to collaborate effectively, since much of their work is carried out together with other team members, such as engineers, designers, sales, marketing, and other stakeholders. You must be efficient at delegating tasks and trusting team members to get the job done. Product Managers must possess strong leadership skills to lead and motivate their team, ensuring they work efficiently and effectively towards the common vision of the product. They know when it is crucial to make the final decision. It is essential to have effective communication skills to convey the product vision to all team members, stakeholders, users, and other interested parties. This implies the ability to present ideas, negotiate, communicate clearly at all levels, and foster a collaborative environment where new ideas and knowledge are contributed that drive the creation of new functionalities and products. Product Managers must be able to make quick and effective decisions in high-pressure and complex situations. They must prioritize customer needs and align them with the company's available resources to find effective solutions. A key to Product Managers' success is the ability to make data-driven decisions. Good product managers know how to use statistics and data, and when it is appropriate to rely on them to make the right decisions. They base their decisions on the information and data available to develop solutions, functionalities, and products.

I am excited to share that I have successfully passed the Professional Scrum Product Owner I (PSPO I) certification from Scrum.org. This certification validates my knowledge of the Scrum framework and my ability to support and enable value creation and delivery. Earning PSPO I shows my understanding of how to bridge the gap between strategy and agile product management in order to create valuable products using Scrum.

In the last episode, I talked with Ademar Aguiar about the Scrum Patterns book in which he collaborated with great names like James Coplien and Jeff Sutherland. In this cut, we talk about how teams should take responsibility for their process and face the adoption of each practice and each pattern as a choice.

I've revisited my Portuguese articles from the past six years and have started translating and publishing them on Medium. The first article I translated is "Enterprise Agile Coach — beyond IT practices." Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/dJuawd4C. I hope these articles spark more reflection on topics related to business agility and leadership. #AgileCoach #BusinessAgility #DA

I was talking the other day with my dear friend and #agilecoach Caterina Palmiotto about #Scrum. Scrum is appreciated for being a very balanced framework, with a great guiding structure, but also not too prescriptive. But over the years we have heard many cries from the #software industry: "Scrum hasn't covered this, Scrum hasn't covered that". Scrum creators are pretty clear that the framework is not comprehensive by design, what do you think? Please use the reactions below, thanks for sharing your thoughts

Repost. All feedback and comments welcome! Summary: The Agile Manifesto was published in 2001. As it’s name suggests, it was a declaration of the motives and views of the seventeen signatories. It was very much a protest against top down management of IT projects whereby the deliverables of said projects were communicated to software development teams with little consideration given to the teams opinions and the needs of the end users of the software. Over the past 18 years, much has been written about what Agile means. The purpose of this article is to go back to the drawing board and hopefully remind readers of what the original 17 authors meant by Agile. Unfortunately, there is too much misinformation being circulated. What exactly were the Twelve Principles of the Agile Manifesto? My comments in italics are my interpretation of the Principles.
