09.30 Keynote address: Predicting the Future: Evolving role of
Product Managers and Product Management
As we are in 2023, we have spoken to many product leaders about their
career trajectories and past professional experience and we see the product-
management role continuing to evolve toward a deeper focus on data
(without losing empathy for users) and a greater influence on nonproduct
decisions.

as a great leader and supervisor and should have the ability to understand
the different departments and manage all those effectively.

10.10 How to Evolve as Product Managers?
Experienced Product Managers are still a rare species in India as our journey

 14.00 Having Power of Understanding the Customers
The most important skill for a product manager is building products with
empathy. He should not only work on the insights shared by marketing or
sales person but also connect with customers personally and understand
their insights and thoughts. Here are a few suggestions for how to kick
start your understanding of the product, market, customer and the value
your product delivers:
© Friend a sales engineer
© Engage directly with customers and understand how the customer
support team engages with customers and use that knowledge to further
your insight of the customer and product.
© Using the product on a daily basis
14.20 Case Study: Hypothesis to Experimentation (A/B test)
approach of product development

together.

© Determine the data you’ll be able to capture.
© Practical examples of A/B testing
14.40 Strategic Insight: Acting like a Mini CEO
Yes, I believe a Product Manager's (PM) role is similar to a “mini CEO” both
wear many hats, make difficult trade-off decisions and use a broad array
of knowledge to effectively balance between customer and business
needs, technology capabilities, financial opportunities and risks.
Session presenting speakers experience:-
© Does he has the same decision making power
© PMs really have to lead with influence, by example, and find ways to
support and add value without having any team member actually report
to them
© Are PMs accountable for the product vision
© How important is for a PM to promote and maintain the quality of
decision-making
Shyam Vedantam, Chief Product Officer, boAt
15.00 Effectiveness of AI/ML in Product Management: How will
this influence Product Management.
As artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) capabilities are
designed into new products and services, Product Managers need to
enhance their skills in order to develop and provide functional requirements
and AI-powered specifications to the team to improve the overall business.
© Why and how they are important
© How AI/ML is used to improve the overall business
© How organizations are coping up with changing technologies

aspects we should look into.
