    Navigating the Shift from Project Management to Product Management

    “Shifting from project thinking to product thinking is about creating long-term value, not just checking off deliverables.” In this episode, we are joined by Thomas Hartmann, co-founder of the Product Masterclass and co-author of From Project to Product, to explore a problem plaguing most organizations: the transition from a project-centric model to a truly product-driven culture. Thomas shares his personal journey into product management and the inspiration behind creating the Product Masterclass, designed to help leaders move beyond the limitations of project-based thinking. He outlines the seven core challenges companies face when making this shift and explains why success requires more than just the product team. It demands alignment across sales, marketing, engineering, and leadership. Teamwork is required to make the dream work. Listeners will hear why prioritizing short-term client deliverables often stifles innovation, how product organizations can foster scalable growth, and what cultural shifts are required to create alignment around outcomes. From setting clear visions for scalability to building robust prioritization frameworks, Thomas offers practical steps leaders can take to drive transformation.

    Innovating for Every Body with Tobie Hatfield of NIKE

    “If you have a body, you are an athlete.” In this episode, host Rebecca Kalogeris speaks with Tobie Hatfield, Senior Director of Athlete* Innovation at Nike, about the philosophy and practice of building inclusive, high-performance products. From his early days as a pole vaulter and coach to more than 35 years of innovation at Nike, Tobie shares how his athletic background and curiosity shaped his approach to product development. He unpacks Nike’s guiding principle—innovate for the athlete*, with an asterisk meaning all bodies count—and explains how this vision fuels breakthrough products. From designing performance shoes for athletes with cerebral palsy that can be put on hands-free, to pioneering new “precovery” technology in collaboration with Hyperice, Tobie illustrates how authentic inclusivity drives performance for everyone. Listeners will hear how Nike prototypes fast, embraces “fail forward” experimentation, and measures innovation through real athlete outcomes. Tobie also underscores that innovation is never the work of a lone genius—it’s a team sport powered by observation, empathy, and courage to take calculated risks.

    Why Agile Falls Short and How to Get It Right with Jenny Martin

    “Agile isn’t about following the rules. It’s about delivering real value together.” In this episode, host Rebecca Kalogeris speaks with Jenny Martin, seasoned facilitator, coach, and creator of the OOPSI framework. While Agile has transformed software development over the past two decades, many organizations struggle to scale it effectively or to see the benefits they were promised. Jenny explains why so many teams fall into the trap of focusing on ceremonies and tools instead of the principles that actually drive results, like collaboration, value delivery, and rapid feedback. She introduces OOPSI—short for Outcomes, Outputs, Process, Scenarios, Inputs—a lightweight, non-prescriptive framework that helps teams break down complex problems, align on value, and accelerate delivery. Jenny shares how OOPSI can resolve common Agile pitfalls like “water-scrum-fall,” where work still flows through waterfall-style handoffs despite sprint-based development. If your teams don’t understand user stories, are unclear on priorities, or struggle to collaborate across functions, this conversation offers a practical path to restoring focus, alignment, and energy in Agile.
