Course overview
Your days are jam-packed with meetings and urgent slacks. You're always busy, but never accomplished—feels like treading water. Deep work feels like a distant dream: Instead of proactively driving strategy, you're stuck putting out fires left and right.
It's going to get tougher.
Boom times are over, and tech orgs are flattening. More experienced people are competing for scarcer product roles. Companies are increasingly expecting product managers to own a broader swath of the product, lead multiple teams, and set strategy—while staying hands-on.
Every PM in this situation will inevitably hit a wall. What worked in the past won't work anymore. (This is where many senior PMs burn out.)
Now imagine if you could:
✅ End your day with a sense of accomplishment, knowing you've moved the needle on strategic initiatives.
✅ Spend a good chunk of every day in deep focused work (guilt-free!)
✅ Lead multiple teams with successful outcomes
✅ Cultivate self-reliant teams that operate smoothly, even when you're not in the room
✅ Communicate confidently with leadership about your capacity and priorities.
After working with & interviewing dozens of successful product leads, they all consciously rebuilt these three career-critical areas:
1. Redesigned their personal operating system
2. Implemented the key habits of self-reliant teams
3. Recognize overhead and influence product org structure
This live, hands-on, cohort-based program is radically tactical. Together, we'll implement the best practices by tailoring templates, tactics, frameworks, screenshots, and scripts you can apply instantly to your individual situation.

Tech orgs are flattening, and expectations of individual PMs are rising. PMs need to harness AI as much as possible—without watering down our hard-earned advantages, putting out average work, or being slowed down by LLMs' weaknesses

Early PM @ Patreon, Riverside, Wix, AppsFlyer. 1700+ students, millions of views
Hey 👋 I'm Tal. I've been a hands-on product manager & founder for 15+ years at hypergrowth companies, always among the first PMs.
I've led teams that
By staying hands-on, I've been trusted to lead big, hairy initiatives including several pricing overhauls and redesigns. I was also the founding PM of the Patreon API Platform, which powers products at Spotify, Reddit & Discord.
Most recently, I joined as first PM at Riverside.fm, leading an AI product used by Mark Zuckerberg, Michelle Obama, and Bill Gates. My journey also includes co-founding a profitable SaaS company.
Joining early at five venture-backed companies allowed me to see what product org structures - and PM habits - succeeded in each context and why.
Here's what I left off my resume:
I constantly struggle with feeling overwhelmed and distracted.
For much of this time I was leading 2-3 product teams simultaneously, there's no way I could have thrived without a deliberate productivity system and investing thoughtfully in each team's culture.
Why I'm passionate about this course:
I believe that with the right systems and habits, every product manager can achieve outsized impact without sacrificing their well-being. After tweaking my system for a decade, I want to help others break through their productivity walls and level up their career.
