The gap between doing great work and convincing hiring managers you're ready for the next level often comes down to how you frame your leadership stories.

Learn the exact frameworks and language patterns that transform everyday PM experiences into compelling leadership narratives.

Join Dotan Iancu Ben Haim, Principal Product Manager at TELUS and Product League mentor, for this practical masterclass on interview leadership presence.
