Speakers

How to measure product managers?
István Szabó (https://hu.linkedin.com/in/istvan-szabo-191b81), product manager at Balabit, syslog-ng, SSB

Product management is one of the most complex jobs in the IT industry and it is one of the most critical positions required for building a successful technology company. Judging whether a product manager does a good job and creates lasting value for the organisation is a difficult task. Starting from what is expected from a product manager, this presentation enumerates the skills and competencies required from a good product manager and it proposes a framework for ensuring that product managers in the organisation receive the feedback and guidance required for their continuous improvement.

Design for the Features of Tomorrow, Improve the KPIs of Today
István Ignácz (https://hu.linkedin.com/in/ignaczistvan), product manager at Arkon, ingatlan.com

Our main topic is the redesign of the "listing dashboard" and the "new listing" pages at ingatlan.com (http://ingatlan.com/). The interesting part is that we decided to redesign these pages because we wanted them to support some new features and a whole new concept of our product. However the new pages improved our KPIs too. I'll talk about the whys and hows and try to give you some sneak peek into the most important questions and decisions that led us to the new concept and the redesign.
