What our students have to say

What our students have to say

The course has been brilliant. Every topic covered feels considered and deliberate - nothing is taught just for the sake of it. I've been implementing everything I've been learning in my daily work and with my team, and it's been a great motivation to put those practices in place. I can already see the positive impact this course has had.

Lara Mason

Product Lead at Isla

It's great to collaborate with others on the course to really bring the theory back to reality. The weekly mentor sessions are awesome!

Andy Clark

Senior Product Manager at Benefex

The experience has been great. The course materials cover all the elements of Product leadership, it offers templates and practicals to cement understanding and Ben and the team clearly articulate lots of key elements that I often do subconsciously, which has help to build my awareness and self confidence. The opportunity to quiz the authors of the course is really, really useful for my learning.

Neil Robert

VP Product at notonthehighstreet.com

The course is excellent. The videos have contained so much great information, the assignments have been challenging (in a good way) and the mentor sessions have been so helpful.

Shivan Persad

VP of Product at RelPro

It's simpler than Reforge, as the concepts are easier to apply directly and immediately to my team. I'm already getting feedback from my PMs that things are clearer as I apply concepts; they are contributing a lot more, more energized and feeling more gung ho about the problems being tackled.

Shilpa Mohanty

Associate Director, Product Management at Toast

I joined the course to define my company's product vision & strategy, and set up our 2024 KPIs. Also to learn more about prioritization and get general product strategy advice from industry experts.
