Hallo liebe:r Leser:in,

English Translation below for internal forwarding to your German colleagues

Du lieferst Features aus und wirst nach KPIs gefragt – ohne Verbindung zu Erfolg fĂŒr Nutzer:innen und GeschĂ€ft. Die Strategie deines Unternehmens ist entweder zu vage oder fehlt ganz. Das Ergebnis: Alibi Progress statt echter Wirkung.
​
In meinem Workshop "Strategische Umsetzung statt KPIs abarbeiten – Entwicklung & Messung von Produktstrategie am 4. Mai im Rahmen der Product Owner Days 2026 lernst du, wie du zu strategischer Klarheit fĂŒr dein Produkt kommst. Du erfĂ€hrst, welche Attribute Strategie wirklich nĂŒtzlich machen, wie du sie pragmatisch testest und daraus Ziele ableitest, die Fortschritt messen statt nur Releases zu tracken.
​
Wir arbeiten in Gruppen an konkreten Herausforderungen, und am Ende nimmst du sofort einsetzbare QualitĂ€tskriterien fĂŒr deine Arbeit, praktische Methoden sowie direkt umsetzbare nĂ€chste Schritte mit.

Was du Lernen wirst:

  • Ansatzpunkte fĂŒr die eigene Produktstrategie abseits der Frameworks unabhĂ€ngig von Industrie, Rolle oder FirmengrĂ¶ĂŸe
  • Pragmatisches Testen strategischer Klarheit
  • Tools fĂŒr Strategieprozesse und Zusammenarbeit
  • Erarbeitung klarer Ziele, die auf FirmenprioritĂ€ten einzahlen und dabei den Fortschritt strategischer Entscheidungen messen

English Version

You're shipping features and getting asked about KPIs—with no connection to user success or business impact. Your company's strategy is either too vague or missing entirely. The result: Alibi Progress instead of real impact.

In my workshop "Strategic Execution Over Checking Off KPIs—Developing & Measuring Product Strategy," you'll learn how to create strategic clarity for your product. You'll discover which attributes make strategy actually useful, how to pragmatically test your strategic choices, and how to derive goals that measure progress instead of just tracking releases. We work in groups on real challenges, and you'll walk away with immediately usable quality criteria for your work, practical methods, and concrete next steps you can act on right away.

What you'll learn:

  • How to approach your own product strategy beyond frameworks—regardless of industry, role, or company size
  • Pragmatic ways to test strategic clarity
  • Tools for strategy processes and cross-functional collaboration
  • How to craft clear goals that contribute to company priorities while measuring the progress of your strategic decisions

Here's what participants share with me about their experience: "It was like getting interviewed by someone who is doing this one of the first times."

Product Practice #394 Can an AI Interviewer doYour Concept Testing? PUBLISHED Feb 6, 2026 READ ON HERBIG.CO Dear Reader, What happens when you let an AI do the concept testing of design variations?
