Listen or watch as Enterprise Business Agility Coach Om Patel and Product Manager Brian Orlando debate whether communication is the primary function of product managers. 

We explore how and if PMs can balance effective communication across stakeholder groups while still delivering results, in addition to other topics, such as: 

• What percentage really is communication
• The power-interest matrix for stakeholder management
• Balancing narrative leadership vs technical excellence
• Creating vision without authority
• Making the invisible turn visible
• What makes a good one-page vision documents
