Go Beyond the Title: Become a Strategic Product Manager. Product Management is a job; a Product Owner is a role particular to Scrum. This class teaches you to excel at both , and to keep pace with AI-augmented development without becoming the bottleneck on your own team.

- Translate strategy into delivery when working with developers and senior executives
- Split large strategic work into MVP, V1, and V2 increments that your team can actually ship

- Practice every technique in hands-on exercises against a real product example
