Using design thinking to solve problems and build meaningful products
SOLD OUT. This is a one-week online Bootcamp combined with group coaching that offers a roadmap to achieving the PM job search goals. The course includes engaging course material, hands-on homework, and industry insider’s perspective with much sought-after advice and tools. In a series of three one-hour live video sessions, we’ll equip you with techniques, frameworks, and confidence you need to stand out and land a PM job.
View contentThe breadth of our conversation spanned across my career growth as a Product Manager, to what it was like growing up in the Soviet Union, to imposter syndrome and women in tech. Thought-provoking and sharp Katsiaryna Drozhzha led me through an insightful conversation about all-things product and life.
Listen to the EpisodeGlenn and I cover a lot during this episode… from my favorite coffee place to how you can implement design sprints in your life, business and client strategy. But what we also went over was the tough problems when it comes to being remote and also what future questions we have to think about after the nomad dream is done.
Listen to PodcastJoin Stephen Paras and I for the interactive workshop in sunny Portugal at the Productized Conference. We’ll bust the myth and show, not just tell, that the Design Sprint can and should be introduced in the enterprise workflow (not without challenges of course!) and that Product Managers are perfect champions for doing this. During this session, we’ll sneak in a few design sprint exercises to show the potential behind the framework while sharing our insights, methods for building product team empathy and ownership, real-life stories, the challenges and ways of overcoming them.
Read Speaker reportJoin me for this interactive webinar organized by the Product School where I’ll be talking about useful frameworks and mental models that can help us, Product Leaders, make better product decisions. You’ll walk out with a list of actionable takeaways that you can start applying immediately in your day-to-day product life.
Get my presentation deckThis is an exclusive Ask Me Anything session to give you a chance to ask me any question you’ve ever had about Product Management. I will be discussing what it’s like to work in this dynamic role and what it takes to get your foot in the door. You’ll also get the inside scoop on the day-to-day work as a PM, the challenges of the job and personal insights from my experience of working at different companies.
Read summary of the sessionIn this episode of the Wandering Workers podcast, we’ve covered the hows of using design thinking to design your best life, what questions you should ask yourself to get started, and how to overcome the potential fear associated with a big life change.
We also talk about how you don’t have to know all the answers to get started. The important thing is to follow your own curiosities. If you do that, you will learn new skills along the way that will help you better understand the opportunities available to you and eventually play a part in whatever you decide to do.
In this interactive and fun workshop, we’ll skip theory and dive right into practice. Participants will be solving big (and fun!) problems and experiencing first hand the fundamental principles of the methodology that helps companies like Google, Slack, AirBnB, BMW and others innovate, stay ahead of the curve and build meaningful products that solve users’ problems.
Check it OutJoin the Product Fireside Chat creators for a casual 45-min conversation where we share our aspirations for these monthly online sessions and the community of women in product, design, and tech.
