The world needs leaders. Leaders head families, coach teams, run businesses, and mentor others. These leaders must not only accomplish but must also communicate. By regularly giving speeches, gaining feedback, leading teams, and guiding others to achieve their goals in a supportive atmosphere, leaders emerge from the Toastmasters program.

Through our community of learners, they find their path to leadership.

We’ll dive into how Product Management is evolving in the AI era, and how technical debt can be managed strategically. First, Anna Szell (Product Manager at PostHog) will talk about the AI adoption: how roles are changing, where decision-making sits, and how to build teams that can ship with speed and clarity in an AI-shaped world. ​Then, Nilan Peiris (CPO at Wise) will talk about winning in high-growth environments by rethinking legacy constraints. He reframes technical debt as a strategic capital allocation decision—not a code quality flaw—and shows how to measure the tradeoff between legacy drag and speed-to-market. Learn when to intentionally take on debt to capture market share, how to empower teams without formal authority, and how to balance compliance with bold growth bets—leaving with a playbook to turn technical constraints into competitive advantage. ​Schedule: * ​18:00-18:30 - Arrival + Intro by Gergő Horányi (Wise) * ​18:30-19:00 - Anna Szell (Product Manager at PostHog) -- **Product Management in the AI era** * ​19:00-19:30 - Nilan Peiris (CPO at Wise) — **Technical Debt as a High-Yield Strategic Lever** * ​19:30-21:00 - Drinks, Pizza, Networking ​About the speakers **[Anna Szell](https://hu.linkedin.com/in/annaszell) (Product Manager) @ PostHog** ​Anna Szell is a Product Manager at PostHog.
