Validated Blueprint

Are we building the right product

We’ll develop a robust strategic plan for the new product.
This involves defining clear objectives, outlining the product's value proposition, and mapping out a roadmap for execution. Strategic planning encompasses various aspects such as product positioning, target market segmentation, pricing strategy, and go-to-market approach. We’ll facilitate brainstorming sessions and workshops to foster innovation and creativity, ensuring that the proposed solution is both feasible and compelling.

  • "Mike has helped us to develop and embed product thinking in our platform teams at Trade Me. During the 6 to 9 months of engagement with Mike, he worked closely with our platform teams to build blueprints and exemplar implementations of an end-to-end value-driven roadmap aiming to provide outcomes for our internal customers. Mike's knowledge of the product and platform strategy is unique. One of the highlights is Mike's engaging approach when working with engineering managers to ensure they understand the "why" behind Platform-as-Product concepts. He studies the culture and background of the company and localises the implementation tailored to your organisation.

  • “With help from Mike we saw new inexperienced product owners grow with confidence and share their experiences and newfound knowledge across the team. The more experienced team members were helped to focus on key areas of challenge and navigate through them. Mike held us all accountable to the things we’d say we’d do in our coaching sessions - making sure we saw results. “

    -Phil Bowen, Programme Director DeNovo (BankWest)
