I am pleased to announce that Dan Valente (@Daniel_Valente) is now the Director of Product Management for JMP. As part of this change, Mia Stephens (@mia_stephens) is taking on the role of team lead for the product management group.
These changes in product management are part of our organization’s evolution and will allow Dan to focus on:
- JMP’s product strategy
- The product roadmap
- Sales execution of JMP’s product strategy
- Worldwide pricing strategy
- Communication with external analysts
- Customer advisory groups
Thank you to the product management team and especially to Mia and Dan for their continued focus on customer feedback and market directions as they move our products forward to JMP 18 and beyond.
As you are all aware, there is a lot of change going on in JMP with new business systems, new pricing, and new JMP functions (Legal, HR and Finance). Change decisions require data-driven analysis to ensure we move forward in the best possible manner.
Andy Zhou (@andyzhou) has provided much of the analysis behind many of the new JMP strategies and business systems. This work has been critical as JMP develops into a self-sufficient standalone business.
To formalize his role, JMP has created a Business Strategy Analyst position reporting to me, and I am happy that Andy will continue to provide valuable data insights in this new role.
