Progressive product development: release products that deliver by Split

Dave is the founder of Confidence In, author of the Amazon bestseller The Product Momentum Gap, and creator of the CALM Leadership method, built specifically for product and engineering leaders who think differently. He's worked with leaders at GitLab, Adobe, Snyk, and over a hundred tech companies from Series A to enterprise, helping leaders earn strategic influence without burning out or pretending to be someone they're not.

His work is evidence-based, practically ruthless, and built for the real world, not the leadership textbook version of the world where everyone's aligned, puts the company first, is well-intentioned, and pays attention.

Lost in the Agile Jungle? by Christian Becker

I've been in the digital industry for over 10 years and have worked across small and large charities, as well as my own freelance projects. I am now Director of Digital at the sector leading creative agency William Joseph. 

Having been at Cancer Research UK for the last four years, I have been able to work on high volume, high profile campaigns such as Race for Life, Dryathlon and the much-quoted #nomakeupselfie. 

In that time I helped drive forward the charity’s digital product and marketing capabilities to be some of the most respected and successful in the sector. 

I'm always excited to work with other organisations, share expertise and swap cat gifs. Give me a shout!

The Elephant in the Room by Beata Kovacs

I'm a product leader with background in product management, experience strategy, and digital innovation. I've got lots of consulting experience (ThoughtWorks, AWS), and have worked in staff teams too (Amazon). I spent a while understanding Design Thinking, Lean, and Agile, and wrote a book with the same name to share what I'd learned (O'Reilly, 2017). Read my monthly newsletter—it's good!
