Product Talk

Jim Gray, former Chief Product Officer of Products That Count, interviews PTC founder SC Moatti about the history of the Product Awards in advance of the 2022 Awards, our 5th celebration.

As cars become more connected, we can make more decisions using data. Automations are within reach for underwriting decisions, distribution, and claims, just to name a few. How can we create products that use data for global solutions? In this episode, Product Talk host and ALTR Product Lead, Neha Shah, interviews Roadzen CEO Rohan Malhotra who discusses how AI data bridges the gaps between insurance and mobility to make better decisions.

When product managers think about setting goals within product teams, we can shy away from accepting if we have set the bar too high, for ourselves or others. We are ambitious individuals and want to meet or exceed the goals we set. How do we normalize mistakes, failure, and human error? Shopify Vice President of Product Mamuna Oladipo shares opportunities to pivot within your goals when faced with mistakes and failures.

Product leaders are category creators and world changers. For example, the world of telecommunications used to require a lot of physical dedicated equipment with a lack of flexibility. How did this industry change into the powerhouse it has become today? SignalWire founder and CEO Anthony Minessale shares how telecommunications turned into a software platform, the role it played in remote work, and what to expect for the next generation.

Experimentation can be developed as a powerful storytelling and product tool. Through experimentation, a product manager can make accurate, data-driving decisions that can expand their product's reach. These don't need to be complicated, but how can product managers experiment in ways that best fit their product? Dow Jones Product VP Peter Gray shares his unique insights in experimentation, subscription, and personalization to create value.

This year has been another one for the history books. In our 2021 Product Talk year in review, we handpicked an episode for each season led by some of our hosts: Transfix's Patrick Blute, Universal Electronics' Nikki Ahmadi, and our founder SC Moatti. Relive insights from leaders at Ramp, Dolby, and Cox Communications, as well as Silicon Valley icon Geoff Moore. Listen to their insights into industry trends and product.

Some product leaders enter this career because they want to be involved with product directly, while others jump in by happenstance. In non-tech roles such as teaching, the ability to make an impact with certain products comes from a different vantage point. How can future PMs utilize these experiences to enhance their products? In this episode, Product Talk host and ALTR Product Lead, Neha Shah, interviews BetterLesson Sr. VP Amber Orenstein who discusses how having a diverse professional background provides a different perspective on building quality edtech products.

There are many different products and thousands of ways to build these products. In a technology-first environment, a platform is part of this process, whether it helps to build the product or is the product itself. What comes first in all this development: the platform or the product? PepsiCo Product Lead Deepika Yerragunta shares her ideas of building platforms as products and within frameworks to boost productivity and scale.
