The Course Program
The course is designed with executives, founders, design leaders, and entrepreneurs in mind, people who need a way to orchestrate multiple platform-product value propositions coherently.
Here’s a summary of the program topics:
- Map needs across all your customers: understand the different maturity and nature of needs and what this means in terms of customer’s willingness to pay, and the appeal of bespoke personalization services.
- Design the right product taxonomy starting from key recurring patterns such as key customers, workflows, enabling modules, and product areas.
- Organize Platform/Product-Design related research and design artifacts across product areas, products, and sub-components to avoid duplications and increase sharing;
- Understand how to distribute business outcomes to underlying product teams and how to craft coherent go-to-market strategies to create synergies and reduce the trade-offs related to giving single teams the freedom to market their products while at the same time promoting upselling, cross-selling, and more.
- Understand how to use third party ecosystems to distribute some of your modular products (such as APIs or Apps)
