\u201cSoftware has been turning into the dominating value driver in most traditional industries like automotive and banking. I recommend this book not only to software professionals, but also to managers in these other industries. It provides comprehensive structural and operational help how to set up and run product management of software-intensive products. Particularly fascinating are the authors‘ highly topical ideas to extend the discipline of SPM into the management of industrial ecosystems to tackle the increasing complexity with an integrated consistent approach.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis compendium based on industry best practices provides a toolbox for software product managers and executives to ensure sustainable success of software products along their life cycles. The authors have vividly described the multi-faceted role of a software product manager – the mini CEO – and his embedding into the corporate organization. Special emphasis is put on areas relevant for SPM such as pricing models, legal aspects, ecosystem management and orchestration that are not covered too well in the available literature. A must-read for everyone interested in the software business aspects in all industries.\u201d<\/p>\n
