This 8 hour remote workshop with optional remote sessions is designed for product leaders as well as sales, marketing, finance and other leaders.

Technology principles are core to any great product team, yet unfortunately product managers defer technology decisions to engineers without understanding business tradeoffs. This workshop will give product managers the necessary and right level of technical understanding to make the best decisions with their engineering partners and team members for product growth.  

The course serves as a great way to help grow aspiring executives within the combined product and technology organizations.
