Our PM manager role model Our PM manager role model is the structural basis for PM manager training and development. In order to fully fulfil the function of a PM leader, a total of six key roles must be taken on. In our PM1 Leader Camp, we first work our way through the individual roles and the associated responsibilities and tasks. In the next step, we introduce concrete methods and tools to master these tasks. You will then immediately reflect on their application, alone, with peers and in plenary, and share valuable experiences. At the end, you will bring all the results into an initial roadmap for optimising your PM organisation and further developing your own role. This means that every PM manager immediately takes concrete work results back into their practice.

Our online-live training for product management managers comprises 6 x 0.5 days sessions and two hours of individual coaching.

On-Boarding You and all the other participants go into the training prepared and with a homogeneous level of knowledge and reference image for effective product management.

• 3 e-learning modules for all participants on the poster of the same name Product Management Essentials as a product management map
• Duration approx. 2-3h, online and stand-alone

Session 1 The Product Manager Role

In the first session, we convey the basic understanding of the product manager role as an important basis for being able to manage this area:

• PM manifesto
• PM core function & roles
• PM processes & tools

Session 2 The Product Portfolio Manager Role

In the next step, you will familiarise yourself with the role of the Product Portfolio Manager, in which the PM manager is typically responsible for the entire product portfolio, strategically controlling and managing it:

• PPM basics and benefits
• PPM processes & tools
• Portfolio KPIs and control
• PPM practical implementation

Session 3 The Organisational Developer Role

In the role of organisational developer, you will learn how to put the operating system of your product management organisation to the test and how to further develop or restructure your organisation:

• PM Implementation model
• PM Software Tools
• Success Factors Implementation

Session 4 The Ambassador Role

In the role of ambassador, as PM manager you ensure the effective positioning and acceptance of product management within the company. In the training course, we will provide you with the tools that will lead you to success in this role:

• Understanding the latecomer syndrome
• Benefits of PM
• (Re-)positioning of the PM
• Communication plan

Session 5 The Organiser and Administrator Role

As a PM manager, you also have a number of organisational and administrative tasks to deal with. You will familiarise yourself with these on the third day of training:

• Process KPIs and control
• Budget planning
• Backups and redundancies

Session 6 The Team Leader Role

We also look at the most important aspects of your role as a team leader:

• Leadership and motivation
• Job tailoring
• Performance management

At the end of the day, you will analyse your own situation as a PM and develop a development plan. This plan serves to clearly identify your strengths and areas for development and to derive concrete measures for your personal and professional development.

The goal: Establish high-performance product management as a PM leader The Head of Product Management is a key position in which you not only bear extensive responsibility for your PM team, but also have a significant influence on the company's success through the products and product lines. Strategic foresight, skilful employee management and targeted communication across different hierarchies are elementary factors for your success.

The aim of the PM1 Leader Camp is to strengthen and develop you in your role so that you can act as a shaper of high-performance product management in your company. In fact, PM leaders are often inadequately prepared for their demanding role. Although experience as a product manager and attending a management seminar are necessary, it is by no means sufficient. This is exactly where the PM1 Leader Camp comes in to provide you with everything you need to build and lead an effective product management organisation in a B2B and industrial environment.

Target group For prospective and experienced product management leaders and managing directors

• For prospective heads of product management to prepare for their new role, or PM heads with initial practical experience
• For experienced heads of product management who want to increase their efficiency or are facing major challenges with their PM organisation.

In addition, managing directors or business unit managers who want to introduce or optimise product management can obtain the necessary structural knowledge and a product management 'consulting kit' at the Leader Camp.

Our online training Our online training follows the outcome-based training approach. The structure and process are based on specific types of results that are developed in the respective training course. Each participant works interactively on their own panorama online whiteboard, which brings together all the content. After the training, you can continue working interactively with colleagues across disciplines and countries. This creates a clear overview and enables valuable work results. The results of the training are put into a presentable form that can later be used for communication with stakeholders in the company. The workshop offers a balanced mix of method input and direct application.
