Shaping your product and its pricing. Together - Product Monetization, Product Management and Product Leadership

How is your Product Organization Doing?

Slow deliveries? Unhappy customers? People spinning in circles? The symptoms of a broken or suboptimal Product Organization vary. You have probably already tried:

Shuffling Org chart & titles
Fixing Job descriptions & hiring new staff
Going “agile” with “2 weeks sprints”.

.. but it didn’t really help, did it?

With a proven, structured, and business-centric approach, we help you create a product organization that enables you to deliver products faster, and with greater joy for customers and employees.

The key of a working Product Organization, is to be able to count on a team of professionals pulling in the same direction.

Product Leadership Transition

A recent change in the product leadership team? Or a change that will come following a promotion or a sabbatical leave? Preparation is key.

We support new product leaders by providing personalized onboarding plans, leadership coaching, and transitional roadmaps. This helps them understand their roles, integrate smoothly, and drive the organization forward without disruption.

Training and classes are good, but they often lack real-world application. What you learn in classes is either difficult to apply or quickly forgotten. That’s why our approach to growing teams and their skills involves hands-on support during their actual work.

We enhance your team’s skills through talent shadowing programs, where our experts work alongside your team members. With 4-hands work and real-time feedback during product development cycles, we ensure more than permanent learning: immediate organizational relief, product improvement, and lasting process changes come as a positive collateral effect of having a top-class expert working directly with your team.

Covers: “on the job” training & boosting, 4-hands work on your product
Interactions: Weekly 1-on-1 session with the Talents in the program
Format: one-talent-at-time or full-team shadowing
Duration: 3 to 12 months

Talent Shadowing

Support to Hiring

Hiring top product people is not like classic hiring. It’s a subtle balance of soft skills, hard skills, and industry knowledge that is difficult to discern on the surface.

We assist in your hiring process by defining role requirements, creating targeted job descriptions, and conducting second-level candidate interviews. Our approach ensures you attract and retain top talent that aligns with your company culture and strategic objectives.

- - Covers: Second stage interviews & assessment. Hunting and first-stage interviews possible through our vetted partners
