Once I was presented with this idea of the Tango between Product Management and Product Marketing. I thought this framed the relationship very nicely - there has to be seamless communication and flow between the management and marketing fuctions so that the product can be built while the market is being developed. That way there is this constant feedback loop making the product more relevant and intune to the market needs. Cheers, Dalvir Singh, Sunny Hi Derek,
