Welcome to the IT and Software Product Management community

In today’s competitive software markets it is of utmost interest to have winning products. The success of any IT product depends on competent and effective product managers. IT product management includes product requirements, release definition, product release lifecycles, creating an effective multifunctional product introduction team and – above all – assuring a winning business case. Indeed IT product management is complex: there are many stakeholders, many responsibilities and no formalized education or body of (scientific) knowledge.
