I've been working in Product Management for some years now. You can view my full resume on LinkedIn, if you'd like to know more. My articles are my own thoughts, based on current and past experiences, of my own or my network's, as well as my readings.
I believe that Internet businesses need proper Product Management to be successful, and that many might lack of it. Product Management is more than just "Product Ownership" as Agile would lead to think. It impacts your whole organization, top-down, left-to-right. It's the way to make sure that everyone is in line and focuses on the same objectives. It's the way to make sure that you actually bring a solution to a person's problems, and that this person will be willing to pay for it.
Besides, I'm a very happy husband, and father of a beautiful son. I'm French and American. I've lived in France, the Netherlands and Germany. I love movies and video games (even if getting less and less time to play). I'm an archer and a casual golfer.

The end of Agile hasn't come series, part 2. I’m one of the first who, in a team, will want to get proper tooling and processes. Why? Especially because once it’s here, I only want to focus on individuals and interactions.
The end of the agile world hasn’t come
It’s amazing the amount of articles I’ve been reading lately, or the amount of people I’ve heard discussing the same thing: the end of Agile. Seriously?
