What is a Proof of Concept?
A proof of concept model is usually a simple prototype that demonstrates that the basic intended functionality of a product is possible. Before this stage, the utility of the product is largely based on a hypothesis. A more complete definition: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_of_concept
About the blog
I started writing Proof of Concept to share lessons learned and thoughts about product management as well as what it takes for an organization to deliver a high-quality product to market, especially in a lean environment. Overall, I don’t think that product management needs to be overly complex, but it requires careful analysis, a realistic perspective, effective communication, and a clear focus on customer needs.
Hope you enjoy! I look forward to your comments and feedback.
About the Author :: Matt Znameroski
I’m a product management professional with experience leading cross-functional teams to bring nearly 20 products to market. During my time as a PM, and previously as a management consultant and engineer, I’ve had the pleasure of working on a broad range of products – from smartphone software to high-end bicycle components.
I recently graduated from Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management (MBA) and McCormick School of Engineering (Master of Engineering Management). As an undergrad, I studied engineering at the University of Wisconsin – Madison.
In my spare time, I like to ride my bike, follow tech news, read, and tinker with side projects.
