How Great Product Leaders Make Better Decisions & Build Stronger Teams | Productized

In this engaging episode of the Productized Podcast, host Pedro Ganço sits down with Phil Hornby to explore the art of decision-making and building strong product teams. Phil shares invaluable insights on how great product leaders navigate complexity, make impactful decisions, and empower their teams to succeed based on his years of experience.

From his journey from engineering into product management to his philosophy of balancing intuition, data, and feedback in decision-making, Phil offers a wealth of experience for product professionals at all levels. He also provides a sneak peek into his upcoming book, It Depends, which dives deep into the nuances of effective product decision-making.

Phil and Pedro discuss the evolution of product management, the importance of entrepreneurial mindsets in teams, and how organisations can foster better collaboration, even in large bureaucratic settings. They also touch on AI’s impact on product roles and why constraints often drive creativity rather than hinder it.
