Career Transition Workshop

This workshop is designed for two primary audiences:

1. Domain Professionals → Product Management: If you’re coming from engineering, consulting, sales, design, or any specialized domain and want to transition into product management or product leadership roles.
2. Product Leaders → Stealth Founders: If you’re already in product management and are building something in stealth, considering entrepreneurship, or want to take the leap from employee to founder.

Both tracks share common ground in leadership development and strategic thinking.

Absolutely! The workshop is designed so that certain sessions run in parallel tracks (Domain→Product and Product→Stealth) while others are combined. You’ll choose your primary track based on your immediate goal, but you’ll benefit from the universal leadership frameworks that apply to both transitions.

Definitely. Track A (Domain → Product) is specifically designed for professionals with no formal PM experience who want to break into product roles. You’ll learn how to translate your existing skills into product language, build a compelling narrative, and create a portfolio that gets you noticed.

Many successful founders start this way. The Product → Stealth track will address:

• How to validate ideas without quitting your job
• Time management and side-project strategies
• Legal and ethical considerations with current employers
• When and how to make the transition to full-time founder
• Risk mitigation strategies

Unlike generic career advice or technical PM training, this workshop focuses on strategic career transitions:

• Assessment-driven: Personalized insights based on your unique situation
• Dual-track design: Addresses two distinct but related transition journeys
• Real stories: Learn from people who’ve actually made these pivots, not just career coaches
• Actionable takeaways: 90-day roadmap, templates, and frameworks you can use immediately
• Ongoing support: 6 months of community access, not just a one-day event

Absolutely. Many attendees are in the “exploration” phase. The workshop will help you:

• Assess if you have the founder mindset and readiness
• Learn frameworks for ideation and validation
• Connect with potential co-founders
• Understand what investors look for in product-leader-turned-founders
• Decide if entrepreneurship is the right path for you right now

The Pivot Readiness Assessment is a comprehensive evaluation tool (valued at ₹5,000, included in your registration) that measures:

• Skill alignment: How your current skills map to your target role
• Network capital: Strength of your professional connections
• Financial readiness: (For founders) Runway and risk tolerance
• Leadership maturity: Decision-making and influence capabilities
• Learning velocity: How quickly you adapt to new domains

You’ll complete the assessment during the workshop and receive a personalized report with specific recommendations.
