Are There Guide Lines Around Pricing and Onboarding?

In this episode of the How to Succeed in Product Management Podcast, marketing professor Jeff Shulman and The Product Management Center advisory board members Red Russak and Soumeya Benghanem welcome Pooja Ghera (Providence) to talk about inclusivity in leadership. The golden question, when it comes to inclusivity is, do you need to have a value of inclusivity before you start hiring or should hire a team that will create an inclusive culture within the organization? What does inclusive leadership truly mean?
