Masterclass: Build Products That Matter with Radical Thinking (20 & 27 October & 10 November)

This workshop will give your team a clear vision and make prioritization discussions more productive and less contentious, and translate your priorities into execution and measurement. 

An online masterclass led by Radhika Dutt (Founder and Author, Radical Product Thinking)

Course Description

Are your team delivering on your vision? Perhaps your product teams are speedier than they’ve ever been – maybe the speediest in the business – but they’re not building the great product you want. Ever taken a moment to consider if speed = velocity? When you iterate without a clear vision, products become bloated, fragmented, and driven by irrelevant metrics.

This masterclass, held over four x 2 hour online interactive sessions, will explain a clear process to rethink your approach to building the software your customers use – or even the company you build. It will start with building and communicating a vision, the sessions will guide you through a process that will help you build a strategy that can be measured and implemented. You will also then walk through the steps you should take in your own situation to manage and influence the cultural and habits you can encourage in your team/s to deliver. You will leave with a clear vision for your product plus the tools and steps you need to communicate your vision to your team.

The Radical Product Thinking methodology is covered in four online interactive sessions, each of which is two hours long:

  1. Introduction, Vision and Negotiating Priorities
  2. Defining Strategy, Planning Execution and Measurement 
  3. Culture
  4. The Hippocratic Oath of Product

What You Will Learn

  • How to build products more efficiently 
  • How to build a clear and compelling vision to align your team 
  • How to communicate your rationale to your team 
  • The habits and cultural changes you can encourage to ensure your team remains aligned and focused on the right things.

“After 18 months, my team still raves about our Radical Product Thinking workshop. Radhika is one of the very few individuals that has had a long lasting impact on Whispli and the way we now build our product. It all came down to her approach, knowledge and the fact that she is down to earth, and has done it before!”

Sylvain Mansotte, CEO, Whispli
