Product strategy for founders and product leaders, before the first screen is designed.
Product decisions turned into artifacts a team can build from. I take the product, the numbers, and the open questions, and hand back a scope, the trade-offs behind it, and a direction the team can act on without me in the room. At XING that turned four teams building the same social features into one shared plugin, with contributions up 10%.
