Product & innovation Gym (EN)

Inhoud

Do you ever feel like you’re stuck between strategy and delivery?
Many Product Owners and Product Managers spend their days firefighting — juggling competing priorities, stakeholder expectations, and delivery pressure — without enough time or structure to grow their product leadership.

The Product Gym helps you break that cycle. Created by Gino Shahidi, Product Expert and founder of the Product Gym, this incompany program transforms your daily product practice into a purposeful learning journey. Through short, high-impact sessions, you’ll train your “product muscles” — vision, influence, focus, and execution — in a dynamic environment built around real work.

Instead of theory-heavy training, the Product Gym is a hands-on experience that blends insight, reflection, and peer learning. It gives you the structure, mindset, and confidence to lead your product more intentionally — and to create more value, faster.
 
Why this training
The Product Gym helps professionals who:

• Want to reconnect their daily work to the bigger product vision
• Struggle with prioritization and balancing stakeholder demands
• Feel their backlog drives them instead of the other way around
• Want to build strong habits that make product leadership sustainable

You’ll leave with sharper focus, practical tools, and renewed energy for your role.
