FARGO, ND  —  Magna Search Group is pleased to congratulate Mark Stahura on his recent appointment as Forum Communications’ newest Product Owner.

Mark Stahura has more than a decade of Product Owner experience in the media, publishing and broadcasting space having worked with 1517 Media and Augsburg Fortress Publishers throughout most of his career. He joins Forum coming from 1517 Media, where he was a Sr. Product Owner for 6 subscription software products and 5 e-commerce sites. Having founded the Business Intelligence unit at 1517, he is adept at finding, analyzing, and using data to make informed decisions. Throughout his career, Mark has been instrumental in multiple product and site launches as well as the ongoing management of project Road Maps, Backlogs and other product lifecycle activities for these properties. He has extensive experience documenting requirements, personas, and user stories, and he has experience in personally creating wireframes that demonstrate the organization of information and functions of products so both stakeholders and developers can easily remain in lockstep throughout a project’s lifecycle. Though he is not a developer, Mark has an innate ability to understand how a system ‘thinks,’ enabling him to see consequences of a decision and lead the decision-making process to the healthiest conclusion.

Mark’s educational background includes a Bachelor’s degree (B.A, Music), Master’s degree (M.A) and a PhD (Music History and Theory). Additionally, he is a Certified Scrum Master (CSM) and Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO).

Magna Search Group is extremely proud of Mark, and wishes him all the best as he begins his journey with Forum Communications. We are excited to see the positive impact that he brings to the team!
