🇩🇪 My Only Public Product Strategy Workshop in German this Year!


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 für Nutzer:innen und Geschäft. 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 für dein Produkt kommst. Du erfährst, welche Attribute Strategie wirklich nützlich 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 Qualitätskriterien für deine Arbeit, praktische Methoden sowie direkt umsetzbare nächste Schritte mit.

Was du Lernen wirst:

  • Ansatzpunkte fĂĽr die eigene Produktstrategie abseits der Frameworks unabhängig von Industrie, Rolle oder Firmengröße
  • Pragmatisches Testen strategischer Klarheit
  • Tools fĂĽr Strategieprozesse und Zusammenarbeit
  • Erarbeitung klarer Ziele, die auf Firmenprioritäten 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

Product Practice #404 Linked Better Practices over Stacked Best Practices PUBLISHED Apr 16, 2026 READ ON HERBIG.CO Dear Reader, During a recent webinar, someone asked a question I had to think about a bit longer: "What do you do when your strategy is still early, and you're not sure if it's right?" The answer that popped into my head was based on an incredible piece of advice (or admission) I received from a former boss 10+ years ago: No one knows if their strategy is right in the beginning,...

Product Practice #403 Linked Better Practices over Stacked Best Practices PUBLISHED Apr 9, 2026 READ ON HERBIG.CO Dear Reader, During my last webinar on Connect Strategy, Goals, and Discovery with Progress Wheel, I asked people which part of their work is most prone to Alibi Progress. Almost everyone who chimed in named OKRs.
