Anyone Can be A Product Manager: Guided Journey with AI and Core Foundations

David Wang (Product Dave)

Product Leader 18+ YoE | Ex-GPM Linktree

Master the Product Craft with AI and Break Your Career Ceiling!

The best way to break into Product Management is to do the job before you get the title. AI has made that possible.

Today, Engineers, Designers, BAs, Sales teams, and Support Teams can write PRDs, run research, shape strategy, and drive roadmaps.

This course gives you the foundation in a simple, no-fluff format with AI. You’ll learn how to prompt the AI to break down ideas, tie them to business metrics, use AI for research, define personas and JTBD, structure PRDs, and turn ideas into AI prototypes.

What You Get:

  • A real product project you build and launch with AI

  • Weekly live workshops with hands-on practice so you build real skills fast.

  • 1:1 coaching and feedback on your prompts, documents, and project.

  • A complete Miro board of PM tools — personas, segmentation, feature maps, prioritisation, roadmapping.

  • Practical AI prompt library used by PMs day to day to speed up every step of product work.

My Happiness Guarantee:

Over the past 8 Years, I've helped thousands of students. I'm confident in this course. But if at any point in your career you decide it wasn’t worth it, I offer a lifetime refund, anytime.
