Product Managers often get bogged down trying to juggle trade-offs, check all the boxes, and keep everyone happy (and busy).

This hands-on 2-hour workshop is all about escaping the overmaximization trap and increasing your product’s chances of success. 

I will teach a flexible framework for shaping product initiatives, goals, roadmaps, and strategies to be more impactful (and more sane!) for everyone involved. The framework—focusing on drivers, limiting constraints, floats, and enabling constraints—gives you and your team a common language for cutting to the crux of an opportunity, and focusing without killing creativity and adaptability.

Through my full-time and advisory work, I’ve spent thousands of hours of pattern matching the struggles across different organizations. I’m excited to make some of those insights actionable through this workshop.

In this workshop, we’ll walk through:

• An applicable framework for driving product initiatives and roadmaps forward (which I’ve coached dozens of teams through)

• Templates for identifying your drivers, limiting constraints, floats, and enabling constraints

• Exercises for you to practice applying the framework yourself (with feedback!)

• Advanced guidance on implementing the framework in more complex scenarios

Workshop format:

• Two-hour workshop

• Direct feedback

• Interactive exercises

• Access to the recording and all resources (templates, bonus readings)
