About this event

  • 8 hours

This workshop skips the basics and generalized advice you can find anywhere else. Instead, it focuses on the practical and high-leverage aspects of using OKRs for Product Teams.

T his workshop can be combined with two consecutive workshops on Product Strategy and Product Discovery taking place over the following two days. Check the ticket options for bundle pricing options.

Tim Herbig - Product Management Coach & Consultant

As a Product Management Coach and Consultant, I enable product teams to make more evidence-informed decisions in line with their strategic choices by connecting the dots of Product Strategy, OKRs, and Product Discovery.

For over 10 years, I worked in various in-house and consulting roles as a Product Manager and Head of Product. I constantly challenged myself to make an evidence-informed way of working in industries like publishing, professional networking, and building Enterprise-level b2b SaaS applications. I know what it takes to balance large-scale product iterations with the scrappiness of a pre-Product-Market-Fit state.

I now help product teams develop and implement better practices that help them progress in their context instead of chasing artificially created "best practices." I achieve that through hands-on training, coaching offerings, in-depth courses, and intriguing content.
