Godfather of Product Management: Do THIS!

In my 16 years of product management, I’ve yet to meet a PM who wasn’t influenced by Marty Cagan’s work.

He’s shaped what most PM leaders know today, and I’m thrilled to bring this podcast to you alongside my cohost and friend, Pawel Huryn.

You’ve heard Marty discuss the fundamentals before.

But this time, we’re diving into the untold truths of product management — the things that aren’t talked about enough.

Fair warning: You’re going to unlearn a lot of what you think you know and discover insights that could transform you into a true product leader.

This conversation was recorded last year but being published to the podcast now. Its lessons are as valuable as ever.
