Being able to influence effectively is one of the most critical skills for a product manager, especially as we rarely control the resources required to deliver successful outcomes. Influence enables product managers to lead without direct authority, drive alignment among diverse teams and stakeholders, and ensure that product development efforts are cohesive and focused on delivering value.

What are some of the key learnings when it comes to influence and how can you get better at this important skill? Join us on August 20 for a deep dive on influence. We’ll be doing a hands-on exercise, sharing some research and hearing from a panel of PMs at various levels discussing a variety of influence examples from their own careers. Our panel includes:

• Tanya Koshy has held various product roles at companies like Groupon, Google, Meta and, most recently, VP Product at User Testing. She is now the founder and CEO of a user research and product strategy consultancy.
• Caitlin Rios has worked in product at Mitchell International and is currently VP Product at Core Logic. She is also a franchise partner for Vertica Fitness.
• Travis Johnson is a Senior PM at TCWGlobal after various PM, Account Manager and Consulting roles.
• Clarissa Riggins has progressed through the PM ranks–from her earliest days in product at Intuit through numerous Director and VP roles at companies like Real Age, Certona, Kareo, and Humana to her current role as CPO at Experian Health

You’ll get fresh ideas for more effectively influencing a specific target in your current work situation.

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to expand your knowledge and connect with the vibrant product management community in San Diego!
