We're excited to have David Vuong, MSc and Ilan Rotenberg, MEng lead our in-person workshop on New Tooling for PMs to Stay Relevant: The 50-Minute Crash Course.
Most PMs are still using AI like it's 2023… just ChatGPT conversations that disappear into the void. This 50-minute session shows you the tools and methods we actually use to ship faster, think clearer, and build smarter products. First 10 minutes: the daily stack that saves us hours every week. Next 40 minutes: how to build AI agents that solve real problems. We'll walk through an actual agent we built and show you when it makes sense to build your own. You'll leave with tools and new knowledge you can use Thursday morning. No theory. No hype. Just what works.
Learning outcomes:
-
Deploy the AI productivity stack immediately: Walk out knowing exactly how to be AI-first in your daily work and how to actually save time and work smarter with new tools.
-
Build your first AI agent with confidence: Understand when agents make sense vs. when they're overkill, see a real working example that solves an actual problem, and get the knowhow to start building the right AI features into your own products.
- Cut through AI noise and focus on leverage: Know which AI capabilities are critical for product folks right now as the craft is changing significantly.
All attendees will receive a package of prompts.
Target Audience:
Product people at any level. Junior folks who want to level up fast, experienced folks who need to stay ahead, and leaders who want to guide their teams through this shift. If your AI usage has been limited to ChatGPT conversations, this will be a major unlock. If you're already using AI daily, you'll still walk away with new tools and approaches. The only requirement: you want to actually implement this stuff, not just talk about it at happy hour.
