  • EP 161 - Stakeholder Alignment with Joy Adamson

    EP 161 - Stakeholder Alignment with Joy Adamson
    Sep 16 2026
    When AI can summarize meetings, draft updates, and even recommend priorities, what remains uniquely human about stakeholder alignment? In this episode, product coach and advisor Joy Adamson joins Matt and Moshe to explore why alignment is still one of the most essential, and most human, parts of a product manager’s work.

    As part of our First Principles for PMs in the Age of AI series, Joy shares why stakeholder alignment is much more than keeping people informed or collecting feature requests. It is the ongoing work of connecting organizational needs with real customer and user needs, creating shared understanding of priorities, navigating competing incentives, and building enough trust to make difficult tradeoffs together.

    Join Matt and Moshe as they explore with Joy:
    • What stakeholder alignment really means, and why true alignment reduces the need for constant stakeholder management
    • Why the word “stakeholder” itself can create friction when people assume their request should automatically become a roadmap item
    • How PMs can set healthy boundaries, say no with clarity, and prevent feature requests from becoming unchallenged commitments
    • Why emotional intelligence, negotiation, trust, and informal relationship-building remain critical product skills
    • The difference between simply considering stakeholder input and actually aligning on priorities, tradeoffs, and resource allocation
    • How hidden motivations, incentives, politics, and organizational culture shape product decisions in ways AI cannot fully understand
    • Where AI can help: meeting summaries, follow-ups, tailored stakeholder communications, preparation, and negotiation support
    • Why AI-generated recommendations still need human oversight, accountability, and judgment, especially when trust, risk, or ambiguity are involved
    • Could AI agents eventually become stakeholders themselves? What that might mean for product teams and decision-making
    • Why junior PMs should deliberately build their human relationship and influence skills as AI takes on more operational tasks
    • And much more!

  • EP 160 - Vision & Strategy with John Fontenot

    EP 160 - Vision & Strategy with John Fontenot
    Sep 2 2026
    We’re back with a familiar voice on the podcast: John Fontenot returns to continue our *First Principles for PMs in the Age of AI* series, this time focused on Vision and Strategy. In a conversation that blends product thinking, personal reflection, and a healthy dose of AI skepticism, John helps us explore what it really means for PMs to define where they’re going, and how to get there.

    John defines vision as the desired end state or future outcome, and strategy as the path, phases, and tradeoffs required to reach it. With examples ranging from long-term business goals to the realities of regulated industries, he explains why product managers still need to lead on vision and strategy even when leadership doesn’t provide a clear direction, and why AI can support this work, but not fully own it.

    Join Matt and Moshe as they explore with John:
    • What vision and strategy actually mean in product management, and why they’re easy to confuse - How to connect a big vision to practical milestones, obstacles, and key results
    • Why AI can help with analysis and brainstorming, but can’t replace human creativity, empathy, or rule-breaking thinking - The limits of AI in regulated spaces like finance and healthcare, where context and compliance matter
    • Why PMs often have to create strategy when the organization doesn’t hand it to them - How to use AI as a thinking partner without outsourcing your strategic judgment
    • The balance between staying anchored in the long-term vision and adjusting to the realities of the market, user needs, and constraints
    • John’s perspective on where product teams should be careful not to let AI flatten nuance or over-automate strategy
    • And much more

  • EP 159 - Human Judgement and Empathy with Rebecca Douglas

    EP 159 - Human Judgement and Empathy with Rebecca Douglas
    Aug 19 2026
    We’re continuing our new series on "First Principles for PMs in the Age of AI" with a conversation about two things AI can support, but not replace: human judgment and empathy. In this episode, Rebecca Douglas joins Matt and Moshe to unpack why these skills matter even more as product teams lean harder on AI tools.

    With 14+ years in product and a career that started in customer service and client relationships, Rebecca brings a grounded view of what product managers actually do when the stakes are real: prioritize tradeoffs, interpret messy context, build trust with stakeholders, and make decisions that AI can help inform but not own. Together, they explore where AI saves time, where it creates new risks, and why PMs still need to slow down, validate, and think deeply before shipping.

    Join Matt and Moshe as they explore with Rebecca:
    • What human judgment really means in product work, and why it matters most in prioritization, tradeoffs, and strategic decisions
    • What empathy looks like in practice for PMs, especially when serving both users and non-users like legal, operations, and compliance teams
    • Why AI can help with synthesis, documentation, and repetitive work, but still needs human oversight and validation
    • How regulated environments raise the bar for judgment, trust, and accuracy
    • The risk of “empathy debt” when teams move too fast with AI and skip genuine user understanding
    • How Rebecca uses AI in her own work to save time on research, competitive intelligence, and requirements, while keeping decision-making human
    • Why product managers shouldn’t let AI become the answer to every problem just because it’s available
    • How to balance AI fluency with restraint, especially when accuracy thresholds matter
    • Why Rebecca’s poll choice of Human judgment and Empathy resonated so strongly with product leaders
    • And much more!
