Featured event
Software Product Management Beyond Software Companies
Join us for a lively panel featuring product leaders from industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, and financial-services who have spearheaded the shift from project-centric delivery to a modern product-management model. The panel will trace the roots of modern product management in tech, then dive into why legacy enterprises are now embracing the discipline to steer data, AI, and internal-platform initiatives—and what changes when back-office systems, factories, or supply chains become “products.”. Speakers include veteran product management leaders with perspectives on moving from tech to traditional PM roles including:
- Jonathan Healy - Morningstar
- Tom Moellering - College Board
- Neal Silbert - Weav.AI
- Nora Boneham - Grainger
- Joann Frobe – Country Financial
Expect candid stories on translating agile rituals to cultures rooted in annual budgeting cycles, navigating matrixed reporting lines (often up to the COO, CIO, or CDO), and balancing career growth, compensation, and lifestyle when crossing the tech–non-tech divide.
The discussion will spotlight influential voices on topics such as “Product Operating Models” and the emergence of Data Product Management, while surfacing real-world case studies.
Whether you’re a technologist eyeing industry roles or a corporate leader scaling product capability, this conversation will arm you with fresh perspectives, practical tactics, and a roadmap for thriving in the next wave of product-driven transformation.
