Master the system I used to secure 9-digit budgets & Fortune 50 deals at Google.
Influence is THE #1 skill for Product Managers.
AI can generate content. Lots of it.
But content alone doesn't win buy-in. It doesn't move hearts or change minds.
You need persuasion. A message that's clear, resonant, and impossible to ignore.
Without it…
That critical budget you need? Out of reach.
The headcount you're pushing for? Denied.
The dependency you need prioritized? Not happening.
The promotion you deserve? Maybe next year.
Without the power to persuade, you're stuck on the sidelines. Meanwhile – others who can rally teams, secure resources, and inspire action move forward.
I get it. Convincing people to take action can be frustrating.
You have a vision. You have a strategy. You have a plan. You have all the things. But leadership hesitates. Stakeholders are indecisive.
I've been in your shoes. I've struggled to gain traction. But I found a system that helped me break through the noise – one that took me from leading a team of 5 to leading a 300+ org at Google, and helped me secure 9-digit budgets and close Fortune 50 partnerships.
And now, I'm going to teach you my system.
👉🏼 Take this course if you want execs to stop seeing you as a solid PM and start seeing you as a leader.

Testimonials
- I love that this course is so concise, direct, and filled with practical frameworks, advice, and tips. Speaking as a Product Leader from Google, I can confidently recommend this course.
Jesse Savage
Director of Product Management @ Google - The training with Roshan has been a game changer. He breaks down the why, what, and how of communicating with impact and clarity. I find myself using Roshan’s framework every day, both at work and at home.
Qingqing Ouyang
Chief Product Officer @ Provi - In nearly 20 years in tech, the #1 skill I’ve seen that accelerates careers is the ability to influence and persuade. Personally, I tripled my comp from $300k to $900k in 6 years because of it. This course breaks down exactly how to build that skill and advance your career.
Nancy Chu
Director of Product @ Roku (ex-Meta) - Signal to noise ratio is off the charts. It’s crisp and strips off all the unnecessary noise that’s out there. If you’re short on time, don’t want to wade through a ton of resources and want to level-up, this might be it.
Shilpy Mishra
Product Leader @ Electronic Arts - This course was a eye-opener for me. In just a couple of hours, it helped me learn how to build more compelling stories and better get my ideas across in a way that resonates. I wish I'd taken this course earlier.
Nic Sagez
Senior PM @ Google Roshan's storytelling course was exactly what I needed. What really stood out was how practical everything was – I could apply everything right away. This course has made a huge difference in how I communicate and has been a game-changer for my business.
