ProductTank Lisbon

Join us for the next ProductTank meetup on October 14th at 6:30 pm!

The Power of Alignment: From Teams to Stakeholders

Great products don’t happen in silos. They happen when teams and stakeholders are aligned around purpose, trust, and outcomes.

At this ProductTank Lisbon, our two speakers will share:

• How to influence and align stakeholders across your organisation.
• How to build purpose-driven teams that deliver lasting impact.

Join us for practical insights and real stories on how alignment unlocks better products — and better product leaders.
