Agile Product Discovery Course

What truly makes a product valuable? 

While speed and quality are crucial, the hardest challenge is discovering products people need. This specialized training moves beyond mere delivery. We focus on the critical questions: Are we building the right product that customers genuinely value? Does our product meet the essential quality standards and needs of the target audience? Apply proven, systematic discovery to eliminate risk before a single line of code is written.

Topics

Who Should Attend

Product Managers, Product Owners, Executives, Managers, Project Managers, Team Leads, Business Analysts, developers, testers, or other team members who are part of a product development team.

Upon completion you will earn a certificate issued by Agilious, plus 7 PMI PDUs.

Objectives

Learn to apply systematic, hypothesis-driven discovery to rigorously define what represents real value in a product, thereby significantly reducing the risk of failure on product release. Using a combination of interactive presentations, problem-solving exercises, innovation learning games, and team-structured simulations, the experiential workshop, structured in four sprints, enables participants to:

• Align Discovery (The why): Define the Product Vision and Strategy using foundational tools like the Lean Canvas or Product Vision Board (Sprint 1).
• Uncover Value (The who and pain): Apply Practical User Research and Customer Interviewing techniques to validate the target user and their most critical problems (Sprint 2).
• Prioritize Solutions (The What): Employ rapid prioritization frameworks (e.g., MoSCoW or RICE) to select the most promising solutions for validation (Sprint 3).
• Validate Outcomes (The how-to-test and what-to-measure): Design and execute Discovery Experiments to test prototypes and define measurable Outcome Metrics that prove a solution's success (Sprint 4).
• Integrate Delivery: Create a clear, testable Product Hypothesis that smooths the flow of information between the discovery and delivery teams, ensuring iterative product evolution.

Course Dates and Times:

• September 23 - 8:30am-4:30pm

Snacks, coffee, tea, and soda will be provided.
