The Blind Ambition with Jack Kelly

Gal Josefsberg, Vice President, Product and Operations - Cloud Platform at Guidewire Software

Gal has seen it all as a product management executive. He walks us through what it is like to be a product owner at an early-stage startup, a more mature startup, and how an IPO or acquisition changes the role. We explore how to work with startup founders and CEOs, navigate egos and micromanagement, and why many product managers might have impostor syndrome.

Gal also gives us his best interview advice, including how to tell if a startup is serious about its product and what you can learn from its investors. Finally, he explains how you can land your first product manager role and even the best questions to ask in a job interview. As a bonus, Gal also tells us how to ace the case study.
