SUMMARY:Customer Conversations Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Steve Johnson’s Customer Conversations: A Product Manager’s Superpower makes the case that talking directly with customers isn’t just research. It’s a core leadership behavior that builds your credibility and sharpens your judgment. \nThe book demystifies the whole process. It shows why secondhand intelligence (sales reports\, support tickets\, analytics) can’t replace direct conversation. As Johnson puts it: “A direct conversation lets you hear context\, feel hesitation\, and notice what triggers emotion. That’s not trivia. That’s strategy.” \nThere’s also a sharp chapter on AI’s role in product work. Johnson’s take: if you use AI to free up time for more customer conversations\, great. If you use it to avoid those conversations\, you’re building on sand. \nWhy join this series? \nWhen you avoid customer conversations\, you outsource judgment. This book removes the mystery and helps you build a habit of making customer insights your source of truth. It’s practical\, not preachy\, and it gives you a framework for conversations that reveal what customers actually need instead of what you assume they want. \nGet the book: https://amzn.to/4tSfNCX \nJoin Bookclub for Invites

SUMMARY:Grounds for Discussion - The State of Hiring and Recruiting in Product Management
DESCRIPTION:The numbers are moving in the right direction. So why does it still feel so hard? \nPM job openings are up\, AI-related roles are multiplying\, and tech hiring is showing more life than it has in over a year. But if you’ve been job hunting lately\, the disconnect is real: more openings don’t always mean more interviews\, and “strong signals” don’t always translate to offers. So what’s actually happening out there? \nJoin us for a candid conversation about the state of the PM job market in 2026. We’ll dig into what’s changed\, what hasn’t\, and what hiring teams are actually looking for right now. No fluff\, no platitudes\, just an honest look at where things stand and what you can do about it. Bring your questions\, your frustrations\, and your job market war stories. \nThis is a working session for PMs navigating the market\, thinking about a change\, or just trying to understand what the data means for real people. \n3 Attendee Takeaways\n• What the latest hiring data actually tells us (and what it doesn’t)\n• Why more job postings haven’t translated to easier interviews\, and what’s really slowing things down\n• Practical moves you can make right now if you’re actively looking or keeping your options open \n\n\nThis event is included for free with a Product Coffee Premium membership. If you aren’t already a member\, join today! \n  \nRegister
