Product Leadership Micro-Certification

Product Leadership covers the skills that distinguish senior and staff PMs from mid-level practitioners: managing and mentoring other PMs, influencing across engineering, design, and business without direct authority, presenting product strategy to executives and boards, building product culture and PM hiring practices, and navigating organizational dynamics in large companies.

Most PM courses focus on individual contributor skills — user research, roadmapping, prioritization. Product Leadership addresses the management layer that becomes critical for GPM, Director of Product, and VP Product roles. It's the natural extension for practitioners who've mastered IC PM skills and are building toward people management.
