ProductTank Exeter #10 - Ellie Powers

We're back and we've got another awesome online event booked in, and this time we're joined by the incredible Ellie Powers, Product Director at Slack.

🗣️ Resilience as a Product Manager Building great products begins and ends with a strong foundation, be it in company and in self. In a relentlessly tumultuous year, however, it can start to feel like that very foundation is rocking and rolling. Though individual experiences may be unique, what are some ways product leaders can all adapt in order to weather the storm, and even come out stronger? How can products, teams, and product leaders themselves adapt in strange times to build resilience?
