What Is Product Management? Product Manager vs Product Owner vs Project Manager
Product management is about building the right thing: a project delivers scope by a date, a product keeps producing value. Through Bookstore's campaign request we cover why the Product Manager is a job role, the Product Owner a Scrum accountability and the Project Manager a time-scope-budget role; Cagan's four risks, the feature factory versus the empowered team, and the developer's place in feasibility.
