I’ve been fortunate to be mentored by Adam for some time now, and his guidance has unequivocally upgraded my skills as a product manager. He’s improved my ability to set and create product strategies and ability to measure success for large-scale software products. When it came to bridging the gap from thinking from the perspective of a middle-level product manager to a genuine product leader, Adam was essential in making that leap.

A walking Product Management encyclopaedia is the phrase that comes to mind when I think about Adam. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Adam for one year with a few months of that time having Adam as my line manager. I was impressed with his ability to think progressively about his working style, for example, his approach to asynchronous team management was a refreshing change and more suited to an age of multi-country remote working teams. Adam’s most valuable skill is his ability to be a Product coach and help other PMs look at the problems they face and know which theory, canvas or principle can help them get unstuck.

Adam is as great at managing people as he is at managing products. Under his mentorship, I grew significantly as a product professional and I witnessed the same growth in my teammates as well. His expertise and guidance allowed us to build out the product function and processes within Informed and institute a culture change within the company that will definitely be remembered for years to come.
