How to Prioritize When Everything Feels Important
Beahive Beacon, 6 Eliza St, Beacon, NY, USCut through the noise and learn how to make clear, confident decisions—even when every project, feature, or request feels urgent. Join us for a thoughtful, energizing roundtable built for PMs, designers, founders, and anyone navigating complex prioritization.
This month, we’re tackling one of the hardest parts of product work: prioritization when everything seems important.
We’ll dig into practical frameworks, real-world stories, and the subtle judgment calls that separate reactive product teams from intentional, high-impact ones. Expect an evening of good people, good conversation, and plenty of honest examples of what works—and what absolutely doesn’t. (Plus pizza!)
Whether you’re stewarding a roadmap at work, shipping your own product, or juggling side projects, you’ll walk away with:
- Ways to distinguish urgency from importance when the stakes feel high
- Tools for evaluating tradeoffs across competing goals
- Approaches for saying “not now” without burning bridges
- Stories from other builders about hard prioritization moments—and how they navigated them

- What does product judgment look like when the tools are intelligent and the titles no longer mean what they used to?
In this TPG Live roundtable, we will explore how product managers stay sharp, strategic, and grounded as AI becomes a central part of their daily work. From research and planning to prioritization and communication, intelligent tools are reshaping how PMs operate. The challenge is using these tools to extend your thinking without replacing it. Learn how top product teams are enhancing their judgment, accelerating workflows, and staying anchored in customer needs, ethics, and long-term clarity.
We will also examine how the meaning of seniority in product is evolving. Years in the role and team scope no longer define leadership. Strategic clarity, cross-functional influence, and sound decision-making under pressure are emerging as the real signals of senior performance. This session will focus on how to grow with intention, and how to shape career paths that reflect what actually matters in fast-moving organizations.
- What sets the most effective product leaders apart in 2026?
- How do you grow your impact when the org chart is no longer your roadmap?
This session brings together timely insights and practical guidance from product leaders who are evolving with the work. Whether you are embracing new tools or defining your next level, you will leave with strategies you can put into action right away.
Start your 2026 with clarity. Join us live, bring your questions, and be part of the conversation.
RSVP now to join us live, ask your questions, and take part in the discussion. If you cannot attend live, you will receive a link to the full recording and recap.

AI-Augmented Judgment: How Product Managers Stay Smart in a Tool-Driven World
As AI and automation reshape the product management toolkit, one question stands out. How do PMs stay sharp and strategic while using increasingly intelligent tools? In this roundtable, we will explore how to integrate AI without losing product intuition or judgment. Learn how top product leaders use AI to improve research, planning, and decision-making, while staying anchored in customer needs, ethics, and strategic clarity. Discover how to lead effectively in a world where tools are powerful but critical thinking is still essential.
Redefining Seniority in Product: Beyond Years, Titles, and Scope
What makes a senior product manager truly senior? It is not just time in role or number of features shipped. This roundtable will explore the deeper qualities that define product leadership today, from strategic thinking and team mentorship to cross-functional influence and sound judgment under pressure. We will also examine how to create more transparent growth paths, especially in flat or fast-changing orgs, so that product professionals can develop with clarity and purpose.
