-------- THE THEME - PRODUCT IS... QUESTIONCRAFT --------
The smart ones ask when they don’t know. And, sometimes, when they do. - Malcolm Forbes

In product teams, we’re almost always looking for answers - how a design should look like, what our customers care about most, or to convince that one stakeholder to give our idea a shot. And most of the time, the key to the right answer is to ask the right question.

But how do we craft questions in a way that unlocks rich, reliable, profound insights and helps us move forward with confidence? And, more importantly, how do we avoid asking questions that lead us down the wrong path?

Join us for a hands-on, practical session that delves into core principles and quick tips that will power up your questions before, during, and after you ask them. This session will leave you with new tools that you can use right away to get the most from each question you ask to get you the answers you need.

-------- ABOUT 'PRODUCT IS...' --------
PM’s, UX & UI designers, user researchers, developers - you like to dream big when it comes to digital products… Now it’s time share your perspective!

‘Product is…’ grounds itself in informed, knowledgable context and healthy conversation - vital ingredients to tech success. One keynote speaker sets the tone on a theme of less travelled subject matter before all attendees add their perspective during the second half of round table-style discussion.

Don’t expect standard tech meetup fare like “How to improve your CV/Portfolio for that dream job at Facebook” or “How this new framework/approach will improve your workflow” - this meetup is food for the mind, but also a place to meet like-minded big-thinkers!

We welcome everyone who works in tech - EVERYONE has a valuable perspective that we can all learn from.

-------- NOTICE FOR RECRUITMENT AGENTS --------
This meetup is designed for product professionals to connect and share insights.

Unfortunately, we wont be unable to accommodate recruitment agents representing agencies or competitor companies to Zebra People. In this case, we will be happy to offer a full refund for your ticket.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause, but we aim to create a focused environment for our target audience.

-------- WHY WE CHARGE FOR TICKETS --------

We do not aim to make a profit from this meetup, our goal is to create healthy and interesting conversations, meet new people and make new connections. Speakers and the organising team give up their time free of charge to ensure the events are enjoyable for all.

However a small charge is required for attendance - BUT this is so the organisation team can cover overheads - basically the Meetup.com subscription.
