FAQs

What is 1:1 Coaching?

One-on-one coaching is great for acerbating your career. Due to the nature of one-on-one coaching, it’s highly flexible and tailored to your unique goals and context.

Each coaching session duration is an hour, where we will work together either through a learning backlog designed based on your goals and/or tackling current challenges.

Can I expense 1:1 Coaching through work?

Yes! Many of the people I coach expense it through their work. You can use the following email template to request approval form your manager.

What can I expect in a coaching session?

In a typical coaching session we might spend time exploring topics such as Product Discovery or reviewing workshop material to help you grow and progress towards your goal. We may also tackle current challenges you may be facing and map out an action plan and way forward.

My commitment to you as a coach is to a) keep everything confidential and b) to understand your context so that I can guide you in the best way possible.

How does 1:1 coaching work?

Meeting regularly, we will discuss a mixture of current challenges, topics, and learnings.

It’s important that anything we cover in our coaching sessions is actionable and confidential.

As a coach, I will invest a lot into understanding your current situation to ensure that advice and guidance are tailored and also to help you identify the right opportunities for you to put your learnings into practice.

In between sessions, we will agree on an avenue to talk asynchronously. It’s important that you have an avenue to seek immediate help, ask clarifying questions, etc in the moment.

Is 1:1 Product Coaching right for me?

I coach Product Managers and Product Leaders of all levels, all around the world. I’ve coached people looking to break into product all the way to CPOs, in countries such as United States, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Italy and Australia to name a few.

Most who opt for one-on-one coaching generally are either:

  • Facing a new challenge

  • Looking to build confidence

  • Wanting to grow in a specific skill

  • Seeking a sounding board to bounce ideas off

  • Looking to take the next major step in their career

Some common reasons why people seek one-on-one coaching:

  • PM in a startup or in an org where they do not have support internally

  • Looking for a new role or promotion

  • Seeking support and guidance

  • Started a new role and want to set their first 90 days up for success

How has your 1:1 Product Coaching helped PMs in the past?

The best part about 1:1 coaching is that I get to help PMs in all kinds of ways at all different stages in their careers. This is the value of 1:1 coaching over training courses where you may be 100s of people in the course at one time.

To give you an idea of some of the ways I’ve helped Product Managers to date.

I’ve helped Product Managers get promoted into product leader roles, from Senior PM all the way to CPO. I’ve helped 2x PMs now land Senior PM roles, 2x get promoted to Group Product Manager, another to Director of Product, and one to Chief Product Officer.

I’ve also helped people break into product. One specific example was John (see his testimonial below). I helped him pivot his career in the middle of covid. John initially landed a new role as a Product Marketing Manager, however, through ongoing coaching, I helped him position himself and be promoted into a Product Manager role within his first year at the company.

I’ve also helped PMs gain confidence and overcome a suite of different challenges from starting a new job and creating impact in their first 90 days to managing difficult stakeholders or running discovery workshops for the first time. There are so many different ways that 1:1 coaching might help you.

Brook Warner, Product Manager

“I had the good fortune to bump into Ant at a pivotal point in my career. During that chat, Ant convinced me to try my hand at product management, and I've never looked back since - mostly due to the unparalleled coaching he gave me during my first year as a PM.

This anecdote encapsulates Ant's magic as a product coach - he can see things in people they can't (yet) see in themselves and then nurtures and brings that latent talent out with pragmatic, practical, and grounded coaching. Ant's lessons aren't 'pie in the sky' - they understand the actual realities on the ground and seek to work within them.

No matter where you are in your product journey, you won't regret working with Ant!”
