How I can help you

As a product leadership and discovery coach, I focus on elevating the impact and influence of your teams and product. I do this by helping leaders like you transform product culture and mindset one step at a time.

My approach is pragmatic – applying product principles, practices and techniques, prioritising real-world application over textbook theory.

I collaborate with Product teams in three ways:

Product leadership coaching

Drawing on my extensive product career and coaching experience, I help product leaders grow product and leadership capabilities using tailored outcome-focused programmes.

Product advisory

I guide product leaders and their teams to build long-lasting capabilities that help them flourish. Engagements typically involve guiding strategic direction or transforming to the product model, developing repeatable product muscles, or exploring live problems and opportunities.

I mainly advise scale-up and enterprise clients trying to transform but alignment of values and trust is more important than stage of growth.

Product training and speaking

I offer engaging training, speaking and workshops for product teams, creating an environment for them to learn and grow together, reinforcing the team’s culture and values.

Designed to build new or sharpen existing product muscles. Topics include: product mindset training, bespoke facilitated workshops, crafting product vision and strategy, and accelerating product discovery.

How I work

Throughout our partnership, I prioritise a human-first approach, developing relationships with individuals, and getting to know the people involved. This builds trust and collaboration, setting the foundations for everyone to succeed. Ultimately, our goal is the same: to deliver more value through impactful and healthy product teams.

For product leadership coaching we get to know each other through a discovery call and online coaching assessment.

Product advisory or transformation engagements usually begin with a lightweight assessment to build shared understanding.

For product training and speaking we’ll have a discovery call so I understand your outcomes and context.

Pricing

Coaching and Advisory services are subscription-based and backed by the Stories Matter guarantee, where you only pay for the value you derive from our collaboration.

The monthly fee is agreed upfront and every time an invoice is issued, you can pay the entire amount or any fraction, depending on the value you perceive in the work we’re doing together.

Product training and facilitated workshops are not subscription-based and are priced bespoke, based on your outcomes.

Testimonials

“Most people I meet in the product space chose a product career because they love working with technology and with other talented professionals to help improve the lives of their customers. So it bothers me greatly when I meet product leaders or product managers that tell me they’re unhappy at work. Fortunately, in many cases, coaching can make a real difference.

What I appreciate most about Nick is that he genuinely cares about helping product people work and live better, and he has coached many product leaders and product people towards greater personal and professional success and happiness.”

Marty Cagan

Partner Silicon Valley Product Group

“Experiencing Nick’s coaching magic to grow my product leadership has been a blast! Our thought-provoking conversations helped me empower my teams with more agency, strengthening their focus on outcomes that deliver real value.

His innovative thinking and deep product experience were highly inspiring during one of the transformation workshops he facilitated for us on setting strategic context and direction.

If you need product coaching or a sounding board to help guide your transformation, Nick is your next product coach.”

Susana Cuesta Diaz

Senior Product Director Abcam

“Having worked with Nick before, I knew he was the perfect mentor for my new team of product managers. I wanted to invest in the team’s growth by working with a coach who could bring an external perspective.

While technical skills are essential, what sets PMs apart is their ability to influence and collaborate across a business. Nick’s storytelling and influencing workshop gave the team fresh approaches, new ways of thinking about problems, and a burst of energy and motivation.

I can’t wait to work with Nick again to bring that extra pixie dust to our team!”

With 10+ years of product experience as an Individual Contributor and Product Leader, Nick’s pragmatic, human-first coaching approach delivers meaningful outcomes for people and teams.

Nick ran many workshops for our clients, proving himself an expert facilitator. He quickly builds trust, bringing every voice into the conversation – a skill he makes look effortless, using his experience as a Human Skills and Wellbeing trainer.

I couldn’t recommend Nick more highly.”
