Killing a feature or even an entire product might just be one of the most strategic moves you’ll ever make as a Product Manager.

So join our webinar with Stephanie Musat, Director of Product Management at Warner Bros Discovery, and host, Janna Bastow, CEO of ProdPad as they share everything you need to know about why, how, and when to kill your product or feature without ruffling any feathers in the process.

About this webinar

When it comes to killing a product or feature deciding what to kill isn’t easy. Maybe you’re emotionally attached to a feature or product you helped create, or you’re worried about upsetting users or stakeholders.

But, the truth is, that killing the right feature or product can save you time, reduce costs, improve focus, make room for growth, and free up resources for what truly matters.

So, how do you know when to pull the plug? How do you choose which features or products to eliminate without jeopardizing user satisfaction? And how do you build the case for letting go?

Join our webinar with expert Stephanie Musat as she explains why killing features or products can save you, how to identify what needs to go, and when to take the plunge. You’ll learn how to separate emotion from data, challenge the status quo, and make bold decisions that lead to healthier, more user-centric products.

We’ll also cover:

  • Why maintaining unused or low-value products or features is costing you more than you think
  • What tools can help you evaluate what needs to be put to rest 
  • Strategies to kill products or features without pushback
  • How to communicate ‘why’ you are killing off a product or feature to your stakeholders
  • When and how to integrate killing off a product or feature into your product lifecycle.
  • And much more…
