Steve Johnson Instructor, Pragmatic Marketing.

What is the standard compensation for product managers? What impact, if any, does gender, company size, product revenue, or geography play? Every year, Pragmatic Marketing conducts a survey of product managers and marketers in technology firms around the world to examine the compensation and a "day in the life" of the typical product manager. This webinar will reveal the results of the 2006 survey and draw conclusions about titles, compensation, and scope of product management in today's technology environment.
