One of the product management class offerings at NYU Stern we’re experimenting with. Really enjoyed this class and thanks to Lauren Acquista and Helen Hewitt for the amazing support.

The class went even better than expected and the students learned not only about the design sprint approach, but also went much deeper in finding insights than most other consulting type projects would. We pushed them and they delivered things even the clients weren’t expecting (including some direction to completely change where a product was heading).

NYU Stern launches Tech Product Management specialization

I’m pleased to announce that our Tech Product Management specialization as part of Stern’s MBA program is now officially launched. This program builds on Stern’s roots in strategy, technology and marketing to be, what we believe, is the first MBA program of its kind in the country. Students go deep on product management techniques and real world scenarios as well as tap into the deep well of digital coursework already offered at Stern. Our graduates are well prepared to use user-centric, iterative PM techniques whether in a tech firm or a more traditional industry transition to the tech model.
