Product Love

“Product Love” is the feeling you get when you have that incredible and joyous connection towards your favorite products. What makes certain products so lovable to us? I ask the leading industry product managers, and the brilliant teams that have crafted them for us. This podcast is essential for anyone who wants to learn about product management from the best executive product leaders across various disciples. Dive into topics about the evolving craft of product management, trends in the industry, and get even more insights into how the modern PM makes you feel “product love.”

Eric Boduch is the chief evangelist and co-founder of Pendo and a contributor to ProductCraft.
