ProductTank January - Product management in a remote-working world

We're all getting used to the oft-quoted 'new normal'. But for many, especially those working across the globe, remote working has been a big part of their culture for years.

This month we'll here from three product leaders of remote teams to see what they've found works and what doesn't.

The speakers will be live-streamed on our YouTube channel and the event will be recorded. We will start streaming the talks from 1:00pm (GMT) onwards. The link will show after you RSVP.

Remote product management: some challenges, but mostly opportunities

We often hear about the drawbacks of remote work, but there are certain things that remote work is naturally better suited for than on-premise work. Most importantly, remote work makes it much easier to develop and instill a rhythm of collaboration and focused time for teams. In this talk Rian will discuss some of the ways product managers can use the benefits of remote work to help their teams succeed for customers and the business.
