Navigating Product Leadership and Strategic Alignment

My guest today is Gabriele Bufrem - one of the product coaches featured in Marty Cagan's new book Transformed.

I met Gabi last year and love talking with her. She's both a superstar product coach and a great human being. 

Today's episode is like a mini masterclass for product leaders and managers, where Gabi shares practical tips and advice from her experience coaching strong product leaders and teams in companies that we have all heard about.  

We covered:

* The 4 biggest challenges product leaders face

* How to craft an inspiring and clear product vision

* What does a great product strategy look like

* The importance of collaboration, listening, and facilitation in order for product leaders to craft a good product strategy

* Workshops and techniques to surface insights and foster strategic alignment

* How to communicate strategic context to product teams

* Product Principles and OKRs

* Why product leaders should spend most of their time coaching their teams

* And more
