Road-mapped by/for product managers
Product leadership is the next step in the self and professional development of any experienced product manager.
Don't keep up with changes, learn to lead them!
These are the skills that will help you to not just keep up with the changes, but rather be at the forefront and lead both their implications and holistic implementation within your company.
Creating a real change requires a real change in the approach - and mindset.
Traditional Product Management courses typically focus on reaching proficiency in a wide range of technical skills and conventionally associated topics such as engagement, retention, agile planning, etc. while completely ignoring crucial "soft-skills", thinking they are too soft for product, and leave them out of the curriculum.
In the Product Leadership Course, crucial skills such as efficiency, goal setting, decision making, essentialism, influence, change and empathy are at its' core.
The Startup CEO Course
Global, online, 18 weeks, personal course
CEOs are a unique bread. You're never truly qualified and most of your challenges are never foreseen. Startup CEOs will mostly have it the hardest...
Not having a boss is one of the reasons we do it. Yet it's also our biggest weakness. Apart from the set of skill you'll obtain in the course, you'll also gain and contribute to your kin. The only people who can truly understand the challenges you face and loneliness that comes with it.
A significant part of the course is working together, commenting on each others' work, giving advice, hacking solutions. Through the course you'll come to learn that the more you contribute and give to make your fellow CEOs better, the better you will become at finding solution to your own challenges. You'll learn to give critical comments in a manner that will have them be openly received. You'll learn to open up to different perspectives and to embrace and demand the utmost direct and critical comments.
