How do today’s most successful tech companies—Amazon, Google, Facebook, Netflix, Tesla—design, develop, and deploy the products that have earned the love of literally billions of people around the world? Perhaps surprisingly, they do it very differently than the vast majority of tech companies. In INSPIRED, technology product management thought leader Marty Cagan provides readers with a master class in how to structure and staff a vibrant and successful product organization, and how to discover and deliver technology products that your customers will love—and that will work for your business. With sections on assembling the right people and skillsets, discovering the right product, embracing an effective yet lightweight process, and creating a strong product culture, readers can take the information they learn and immediately leverage it within their own organizations—dramatically improving their own product efforts. Whether you’re an early stage startup working to get to product/market fit, or a growth-stage company working to scale your product organization, or a large, long-established company trying to regain your ability to consistently deliver new value for your customers, INSPIRED will take you and your product organization to a new level of customer engagement, consistent innovation, and business success. Filled with the author’s own personal stories—and profiles of some of today’s most-successful product managers and technology-powered product companies, including Adobe, Apple, BBC, Google, Microsoft, and Netflix—INSPIRED will show you how to turn up the dial of your own product efforts, creating technology products your customers love. The first edition of INSPIRED, published ten years ago, established itself as the primary reference for technology product managers, and can be found on the shelves of nearly every successful technology product company worldwide. This thoroughly updated second edition shares the same objective of being the most valuable resource for technology product managers, yet it is completely new—sharing the latest practices and techniques of today’s most-successful tech product companies, and the men and women behind every great product.

An invaluable compendium of up-to-date, real-world vignettes, these detailed depictions are crafted from 35 years of thought leadership and hands-on engagement in U.S. Federal Government proposal development for support services contractors. There is meaningful context built around each vignette, allowing readers to see immediately how to apply the lessons learned. The insights presented are applicable to small businesses and mid-tier companies, as well as global Fortune 50 corporations. Written in a highly accessible style and accompanied by the author’s own photographs, On-the-Go! delivers concise, clear-sighted observations and helpful business-driven recommendations. Topics are drawn from actual challenges and situations that organizations and their staff professionals face every proposal. Across the spectrum of vignette topics, attention is paid to multiple dimensions in and around proposal development—human and organizational dynamics, linking business decisions to proposal strengths, building the proposal response, proposal writing, and more. In addition, coverage extends to academic and public-sector grant proposals, as well as international private-sector tenders. All the vignettes are easy to use and integrate into an organization's thinking and best practices because they are streamlined. Importantly, On-the-Go! brings practical value to executive leadership, business developers, capture managers, and proposal developers and managers, along with technical and programmatic subject matter experts and knowledge managers.
