What is the Scaling High-Performance Product Teams course about?
You're expected to deliver aggressive growth while keeping teams aligned and energized. But without structure, scaling turns into chaos, initiatives stall, communication breaks down, and high performers quietly disengage. You're not lacking talent; you're lacking a repeatable system that scales with intention, not just headcount.
