    Starting as a new CPO - with Frederik Meinertz Hansen

    Join us as we delve into C-level product leadership with Frederik Meinertz Hansen.  We discuss his method of starting a new CPO role with a four week grace period, where the only task is to observe, research and track the inner workings of the company, essentially peeling the onion to get to the What, How and Why.  The episode explores the Chief Product Officer's role and challenges during organizational change. Frederik underscores the importance of mentorship, empowerment, and a unified vision. He relates corporate strategy to sports coaching, offering insights for aspiring product managers. Concluding, the discussion ties together product management and business acumen, showcasing Norway's active product community.

    How I ended up in Product - with Ida Aalen

    One of our favorite topics to discuss with fellow product people is how they ended up doing what they do. Because product managers come from a wide range of backgrounds, it's always an interesting story. Ida Aalen started getting paid for making websites when she was 12, built her own grafitti community on IRC, and has been passionate about great digital user experiences ever since. As co-founder and CPO of the video call startup Confrere, she experienced highs and lows, including 100x user growth when the pandemic hit, two burnouts, and ultimately a successful acquisition of the company in 2021. We talk to her about all this, and her new role as an independent product coach. Find Ida on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/idaaalen/ We are excited to announce our partnership with Mixpanel!
