How to Drive the Delivery of High Value Products
Receive free IIBA updates and exclusive content!
We know that product success goes beyond the Product Owner providing daily guidance to the delivery team. Additional responsibilities, skills and techniques are required to ensure the value being created by the team. Product Ownership Analysis (POA) is a discipline, with a set of practices, processes, and procedures that assists teams to create and deliver exceptional products and services, for their customers and stakeholders.
With POA, professionals can apply both strategic and tactical contributions towards solving customer problems through building great products while maximizing the value created. Ananta Mahapatra, Product Manager at IIBA sheds light on POA saying “We describe POA as a confluence of Product Ownership and Business Analysis practices centered around seven domains. It’s different than the delivery-focused view of product ownership and shifts the conversation to product ownership analysis that is unique. It highlights good practices and tightly weaves agility into product development.”
