Intentional Product ManagerReviews of intentionalproductmanager.com

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!
