Part 1 of 3 of the Product Discovery Series

Leader of Retail Lending Solution, Andrew Kerschinske, shares his take on product discovery with Brian Wohlers. Thinking about the work to be done as part of an overall product strategy is a new way to go about work differently than we have in the past. Why product discovery? Learn about how a team might look at solutions and determine how to move forward in a new way. How can we shift from a project to a product mindset? What is the business approach on product discovery?

“It’s really…really going down the path of, what is the problem we’re trying to solve and not making assumptions that we already know how to solve it.” – Andrew

“We want to run more experiments on what is the best way to solve this problem.” – Andrew
