Money + People
Money is a funny thing. It can be broken down into numbers and logic, but it represents something far more substantial to us than simple math. We shape many aspects of our lives around money, and define many of our relationships with it. We think about it, sometimes worrying and sometimes celebrating. We think that having a lot of it must mean knowing a lot about it, but even those with the most money have questions about the basics.
In this talk, we’ll look at fun and informative examples of how Money + People relate. We’ll look at how money is becoming an integrated part of our online experiences. We’ll cover opportunities that are popping up for design and disruption in financial services.

Global versus local product management (downstream vs upstream)

o   Different mindsets: Local product management as executer for global versus global as service center for local product management

o   Findings from working on both sites: what to consider when dealing with local offices/local product management

o   What to consider in the med tech world – one sizes fits it all will never work.
