Product managers are responsible for defining a product that solves real customer problems, that can be delivered with the technology and development skills available, and that can sustain a company’s business.
SVPG specifically focuses on advancing the role of product management, a role that is absolutely critical to delivering winning products, and yet is often the most misunderstood and underutilized of all the roles within high-tech companies.
It doesn’t matter how talented the rest of the organization may be if they are given the wrong product to build.  This is what makes product management such a critical and high-leverage role, and why it pays for companies to develop the capabilities of their product managers.
