An Exploration of Product Management. A personal goal for me is to become better at product management, so that I can help create better products. As a product manager, the most important thing you should be doing is understanding the problems that your customers face. If you treat âimproving at product managementâ as the product, you should start with an exploration of the problem space. Iâm framing that problem space as products that fail. I think it is also fair to also think about products that under-perform.
The purpose of strategic planning. The purpose of strategic planning is to set overall goals for your business and to develop a plan to achieve them. It involves stepping back from your day-to-day operations and asking where your business is headed and what its priorities should be.
Planning is the management function that involves setting goals and deciding how to best achieve them. Setting goals and developing plans helps the organization to move in a focused direction while operating in an efficient and effective manner. Long-range planning essentially is the same as strategic planning; both processes evaluate where the organization is and where it hopes to be at some future point. Strategies or plans are then developed for moving the organization closer to its goals.
