Intentional Product Manager Bewertungen 95

I am a Senior Product Manager at VMware. In previous roles, before finding Intentional Product Manager, I found myself waking up and staring at the ceiling for fifteen minutes or so. I knew that fifteen minutes would be the only stress-free, unscheduled, unprioritized time I would get until the next day when I laid there all over again. I felt like I have to say “yes” to everything and found myself stuck in a cycle of constant overwhelm. There were never enough hours in the day. I knew there had to be a better way.

Within the first five minutes of class, Shobhit allowed us to step back and evaluate ourselves. I knew at this moment that I had found the better way. I knew that approaching my day-to-day with intentionality would be the change I needed to make, and I knew Product Leader Blueprint would get me there.

Every approach to any situation I found myself in changed because of this program. From how I approach stakeholders to meeting with my peers, I made the time to ask myself what my intentions were. The shift this had in my life was profound.

If I could say anything to give you a glimpse into this program, it would be that my career and life as a whole have been drastically affected after working with Intentional Product Manager. You don’t have to say “yes” to everything, and this program will give you the confidence and wisdom to know exactly how to do that.

You will not regret working with this team. It will fundamentally change your outlook and how you manage yourself. It is 100% worth the time and investment.

My day-to-day life before Intentional Product Manager was all over the place. It was early in my product management career and I was learning several new things, but I did not fully have my house in order. I said yes to everything and was still not seeing any legitimate results.

Intentional Product Manager changed the way I manage and plan. I learned how to reduce the number of meetings I had on my calendar. I also learned how to increase the engagement in the meetings I was keeping on my calendar. I essentially learned how to create more time in my day-to-day schedule.

I have learned to say “no” graciously. This program gave me the tools to build trust with my stakeholders. I am trusted with more initiatives now because my stakeholders believe I know what truly creates value and where I should spend my time.

With all that I learned and implemented, the impact it made on my role was significant. Ultimately, the trust I had built within my company led to my next promotion!

One thing I will say to anyone contemplating Intentional Product Manager:
It is easy to settle into a cycle where you are on autopilot. You need something different to break that routine. This program will do just that. It will give you the impetus and the awareness you need to ask the right questions. More importantly, it will provide you with the practice you need to implement those changes.

Intentional Product Manager has dramatically and positively affected my career.

When I found this program, my biggest challenge was not fully knowing what to do. I lacked confidence and knew without a doubt that I needed to seek out training and mentorship. I wanted to be the best I could be, and I knew this program would help get me there.

One of the most significant changes I made is implementing the Meaningful Meetings Framework this program teaches. I watched this one change increase productivity and be utilized by others in my company. I knew then that this program was working.

I now have the confidence to make those decisions I had doubted myself in making because I know I have the foundation to do so.

I believe that Intentional Product Manager is the right choice for anyone. No matter the stage of our careers, we all need growth. Shobhit can help you get there.

My advice to anyone on the fence:
If you seek to grow (whether you are just starting out or in your senior years of product management), but you don’t have mentorship - seek it out. Don’t wait for a mentor to come to you. Take ownership of your growth.

Thanks to Intentional Product Manager, I now meet with stakeholders and have the confidence to communicate effectively.

Most product managers would agree that this career can be an overwhelming one. I felt that the job was managing me rather than the other way around. I felt like a firefighter and had several conversations with myself, asking if I was even fighting the correct fires.

My time with Intentional Product Manager addressed this issue and so much more. It drove home the idea that intentionality is what has the most impact.

During this program, I made significant changes that greatly affected my schedule and gave me more time to focus on vital tasks. What I implemented has stayed with me. It has allowed me to go from constantly being on edge, waiting for the subsequent fire to appear, to living in a perpetual state of calm.

Thanks to Product Leader Blueprint, I no longer have to feel frantic every day. I know that even when a fire does come, I now have the tools to handle it calmly and effectively which is super helpful because I am now a co-founder in a startup.

Before I joined Intentional Program Manager, I was in a decent position. I had a job that paid okay, but I had a strong desire to move and be a "real PM".

But my approach was more spontaneous and “go with the flow.” Because of this approach, I did not see a significant result. I needed to take it to the next level, but I did not know exactly how to achieve this result.

I came into it with the mindset of being unsure I even belonged in this product management realm. I was always branded as the banking guy and did not know if I had what it takes to branch out into what I wanted. I needed to know how much I brought to the table.

Shobhit took the time to understand my actual needs. After speaking with him, I knew this is the right program for me for the effort Shobhit spent to really drill down to what help I need.

The Intentional Job Search Program (a sub program under the wider Intentional Product Manager program) helped me make my search….well, more Intentional :) The program gave me the tools needed to land the proper role for me. I structured my interviews by controlling the time and only presenting what would portray me as the best person for the job. I learned how to utilize every second to make my case.

Shobhit and Sam saw the potential in my experience and the help they provided exceeded my expectations. I was aiming for a PM role, but from their mentorship, I came to understand better of my skills. Not only I overcame my own perception of what a real PM is, I knew I have what it takes. I eventually landed a Senior Product Manager role that suits my needs and career trajectory.

A message to anyone considering this program: Find a mentor, work with peers, and systematically attack your interview process. These elements are all presented to you through Intentional Job Search. This program is well worth the investment, as long as you are willing to come into it with the right mindset.

Coming into Product Leader Blueprint, I had been in product management for roughly a year. I was essentially self-taught, and wanted to hone my skills to reach that next level.

I had not come across too many programs specific to product management so I was excited to find Intentional Product Manager. I felt that the guided curriculum combined with the peer mentorship and coaching elements of the program made this the ideal opportunity for me. I was not disappointed.

There are many different books and resources for product management, but Shobhit helps you cut through the noise and focus on what really matters. If you are on the fence about this program, I would encourage you to take the leap!

When I found Intentional Product Manager, I was searching for a job in the middle of a pandemic. The job search process can be demoralizing for even the most confident person.

The rejections I was receiving came with minimal feedback, and this was my biggest struggle.

When I found the Intentional Job Search program, I felt like I had hit the jackpot.

During my time in this program, Shobhit and Sam worked with me to frame and hone in on my experience concerning product management. I learned that understanding my strengths was vital in this process.

Thanks to Intentional Product Manager, I am now working for an innovative company in a role that I am passionate about being in!

This program is ideal for anyone who wants to accelerate their career in a culture of support. Intentional Job Search helped this process not feel so isolating. I always knew I could count on the support of like-minded peers and mentors and phenomenal support from Sam and Shobhit.

Working with Intentional Product Manager was a very important career decision for me.

I was finding my job search to be very frustrating - I was consistently applying, interviewing, and networking to the best of my ability, but really needed some more direct feedback to help me improve my outcomes.

This program gave me honest, personal feedback. It helped me hone my interviewing skills and feel more confident in my approaches. Sam & Shobhit helped me be more effective and structured in my extemporaneous in-the-moment responses, and gave me the tools to tell stories around my work history in a more structured way & that told a cohesive story.

Intentional Job Search is a great tool to give insight into where your blinders might be. The mock interviews are indispensable.

If you struggle to know where you are going wrong and need an outside perspective, this program is absolutely for you.

Before working with the Intentional Product Manager, I was frustrated with my interviewing experience - not hearing back from recruiters, being overlooked for roles I know I would be good in, and having no access to valuable feedback after interviews. I tried several other peer groups but did not feel that I was getting structured feedback.

I was apprehensive about joining a coaching programme - I had never done so before and the price seemed quite steep. In my initial call with Shobhit, my mind was put to rest. No hard sales techniques, genuine answers to my questions, and my skepticism was met with honesty and a willingness to make this partnership work.

Once I started the program, I had no doubt I had made the right choice. Sam and Shobhit worked with me on building back up the confidence I had lost over the months prior in other interview processes. They taught me how to craft my interview narrative both in person and online and how to get into the right frame of mind to be fully prepared for interviewing and starting a new job.

I can say with confidence that it is entirely worth the investment. I achieved my goal of completing a job search with a higher salary and promotion in such a short time compared to doing it on my own.

I highly recommended this program for product managers at any level who need support leveling up in their careers.

I have been in Product Management for over ten years. I am currently a Senior Product Manager for the United States Air Force. During my time in product management, I noticed a trend in how I was perceived. I was constantly “Mr. Fix it.” My company recognized me for being excellent at execution, but I also wanted to be known for my strategic work.

When I came to Product Leader Blueprint, all I was doing was fighting fires. Throughout this program, I began to be more intentional about my mindset. I started putting some of the practices I was taught into action, noticing significant changes.

By clarifying priorities and what I could delegate, I did something I was unsure was even possible - I created more time in my day. This time was precious in allowing me even to be able to focus on strategic elements.

Thanks to Intentional Product Manager, I was able to go from having little to no strategic influence to gaining enough strategic influence to assist in leading a major new initiative for my company.

I highly recommend this program. It is well worth the investment to anyone looking to reach goals and to reach them quickly. It is worth taking the step back, contemplating where you are, considering where you want to be, and realistically asking yourself how long it will take you to get there on your own. Shobhit and his team have made a tremendous impact on my career.

When I joined the Intentional Product Manager program, I used to work as a product manager at Pluralsight. A while back, reorgs greatly impacted my team directly. I kept asking myself, “did I contribute to this?” I questioned if it could have been my skill, my communication, etc.

Intentional Product Manager assisted me in dealing with my frustration. Together, we worked on my confidence levels and everything that it had affected. Through this program, I finally realized that my lack of confidence ultimately stemmed from the need for everyone to agree with me. Imposter syndrome had hit me hard, and it was significantly affecting my career.

This one realization has changed my outlook. Product Leader Blueprint helped shape my confidence and influenced my problem-solving. I learned how to better my communication and be intentional.

Rather than the chaotic steady stream of meetings, I now schedule the time to sit down between meetings and think about my intentions. My entire life has become more mindful and strategic.

I was one of the first people to test and assist in creating this program. I can tell you that it is specifically designed to provide conceptual understanding while also providing plenty of room for implementation. It allows you to put it all into practice.

Intentional Product Manager has made a massive impact on my career, and I would highly recommend working with them.

I would absolutely recommend Intentional Product Manager to anyone who wants to take their career to the next level. I came to Shobhit and Sam with an open ended question of finding what’s next for me in my professional journey. I had a great job and I was surrounded by kind people but I felt stuck. I wasn’t growing or learning as much as I would have liked. I knew I needed a change, but wasn’t sure what that change would be.

The assistance I got from Shobhit and Sam was phenomenal. They made sure that I just wasn't applying for a cool job but was making sure that it was the right step for me in fulfilling my long term career goal. They helped me end-to-end - from career planning to offer negotiation. I was also pleasantly surprised by the amount of support and resources that came from the entire community. I landed a role at Amazon as a Senior Product Marketing Manager, and I couldn't be more excited.

I am a big advocate of this program because it helped me get clarity and courage to determine my next step and go for my dream job.

When I thought about job search after being in a company for 13+ years, the first thing that came to my mind was that it would be tricky & challenging. But fast forward to now, I think it was an enjoyable, wonderful, and learning experience I had. I met some lovely people and had great conversations. This change was all because of the Intentional Job Search program.

I found my mentors in Shobhit and Sam, who helped me have the right mindset and challenged me to be better. I enjoyed the learning, support, and love from my peer group. The whole personalized experience made me better prepared and confident.

Because of the training, mentoring, and support, I started to enjoy interviewing and found the very questions I worried about easy to tackle. I landed in a new role, at an exciting startup and moved from a Product Manager to a Senior Product Manager role with a massive jump in overall compensation that paid for the program several times over.

I am so happy to have great coaches/mentors in Sam and Shobhit and look forward to excelling in my career with more help from the Intentional Product Manager.

I highly recommend the Intentional Job Search as a structured and supportive program for anyone looking for their next product role. I started the program with a year of Product Manager experience. However, I felt like I had done more program manager work than product management. The program helped me build up confidence while I practiced with both my peers as well as seasoned product managers in both Sam and Shobhit. The initial six weeks of the program gave me a great foundation based on updating my resume, working on a job search strategy and practicing stories for interviews. Overall the combination of the community and gave me the confidence necessary to find my product role. I am now a product manager at Teachable and am excited to be here, and happy to have partnered with Sam and Shobhit in my journey!
