Fifth Annual
Allan D. Shocker Lecture
on Product Development
Ten Habits of Highly Effective
Product Development Teams
How is the practice of design evolving? You have read the books, attended the classes, and seen great products. But what do world-class development teams actually do to create successful products? This seminar presents 10 competencies that separate great product development teams from the rest. Each one is a skill that can and should be learned, practiced and built into the process. Each will be illustrated with examples showing how teams implement these important habits of effective product development.
