Getting the right ducks in the right row.

You know the old joke: If it quacks like a duck, walks like a duck, it must be a duck.

Rev.2.0 is: Who's doing the quacking?

One duck is the customer. You spend a ton of time and resources to better understand your customers: their likes, dislikes, must-haves, what they quack and don't quack about - basically, their pleasures and preferences for everything from GUIs to Hueys, Deweys and Louies. Yet even with the best customer intel, products can still miss the mark. How come?

This webinar explores one of the other ducks you, the product manager, are responsible for getting in-a-row (aka, aligning): the members of your development team. The days of command-and-control leadership are over. The often-dismissed soft skills of collaborating, communicating, building trust, resolving conflict are now a pre-requisite for success. If you don't understand your or your teams' quacks and dis-quacks, there's a good chance that the PM process won't produce the value, product or the customer experience that you want. In this webinar, we'll ........

• Explore 8 performance styles for getting things done
• Identify communication tips for each style
• Distinguish 7 ambitions that fuel those styles
• Identify the benefits and pitfalls of each ambition

Let's get real! Make this webinar even more useful and have your actual preferences and ambitions in hand. How?
