Why This Matters Now
Great product leadership has always been about judgment: seeing more possibilities, asking better questions, and making hard decisions with incomplete information.
AI changes the quality of that judgment.
The best product leaders aren’t using AI to write tickets faster or automate busywork. They’re using it as a strategic thought partner—to challenge assumptions, explore decision space more broadly, stress-test strategies, and gain confidence in the choices they make.
Others are still “waiting to see.”
This workshop is for senior product leaders—Senior PMs through Directors, VPs, and CPOs—who refuse to let AI literacy become a leadership gap. In four focused hours, you’ll move from AI curiosity to AI-augmented product leadership, upgrading how you think, decide, and lead.
What You Will Learn
AI as a Strategic Thinking Partner
The real value of AI isn’t automation—it’s augmentation.
You’ll learn how experienced product leaders use AI to:
- Expand how they frame coaching conversations
- Examine staffing options more broadly and deeply
- Surface blind spots and second-order effects
- Make decisions faster without sacrificing rigor on crafting Product Vision
This is not a session on prompt tricks or tool tours. It’s about fundamentally upgrading how you reason about value, viability, and feasibility—with AI supporting your judgment as a thought partner, not replacing it.
Decision Quality, Not Just Speed
You’ll see how AI helps you:
- Explore multiple strategic paths quickly
- Coach Product Teams and organizational decisions
- Improve confidence when stakes are high and certainty is low
- Communicate clearer rationale to stakeholders and executives
How You’ll Apply It (Hands-On)
This workshop is practical by design. You’ll actively use AI to work through realistic product leadership challenges, including:
- Strategic Coaching & Team Development
Use AI to assess team strengths and gaps, explore development strategies, and design coaching plans that raise the bar without burning people out. - Staffing & Talent Decisions
Leverage AI to think more clearly about role design, hiring tradeoffs, and organizational structure—especially as product complexity grows. - Leadership Decision-Making & Scenario Planning
Use AI as a sparring partner to explore scenarios, uncover risks, and stress-test leadership choices before committing. - Product Vision & Narrative Clarity
Craft clearer, more compelling product vision narratives that align teams and influence stakeholders.
You’ll practice, collaborate and learn AI-assisted approaches you can use immediately.

No. Currently the only requirement to earn the AI for Product Leaders is the successful completion of the full course, including exercises.
No. Amongst other factors, each class moves through the material at different paces. This means it’s unreliable to predict a clear window where a set of previously missed LOs will be covered. There are further complicating factors in partial attendance. For the smoothest experience for all, you’re welcome to make up missed material by attending a future workshop in full at no charge.
