    This course helped me to better understand how product oriented firms think and work. I have gained deeper understanding of key strategies that ought to be pursued by relating to the examples shared in the class. The reading material and practice quiz in each module was key to consolidate the concepts learned. Overall a fantastic course and I'm eager to complete others as well!

    This course provides a transformative look at Product Lifecycle Management through a modern, customer-first lens. The integration of the North Star Metric and BCG Matrix frameworks offers practical clarity on how to prioritize resources and drive sustainable growth. I especially valued the insights into Category Design and the 'Magic Triangle' of product, company, and category. It is an essential resource for anyone looking to align internal operations with true customer value. Highly recommended for strategic leaders!
