Agile product management

effectcup
It's more important to do the right thing than to do things right.
Peter Drucker
Product Manager in Agile software development should do the following:
1) deliver user stories from the business idea; 2) define goal and scope of the release;
3) set priorities of user stories within the release.
And it should take little effort!
There are methodologies that help Agile Product Manager accomplish these tasks:
• Effect mapping • Story mapping • Business weighting
