I host product strategy talks & workshops for worldwide product leaders.
Welcome!
I’m a former VP of Product at Netflix and was also the CPO of Chegg, a textbook rental and homework help company. Today, I teach both inside and outside the classroom. I focus on product strategy, but I also talk about consumer science and company culture.
You can enquire about talks/workshops via gbiddle616@gmail.com. Below is a quick video of my favorite activity: Product Strategy Workshops, both virtual and in-person. You can also read my workshops' Net Promoter Score survey results: NPS = 69, n=49.

My new Product Strategy Workshop on maven
My Product Strategy Workshop is on Maven. This virtual workshop offers a step-by-step approach to product strategy, complete with pre-formatted Google Slides, to help you develop a product strategy tailored to your needs. Click here to learn more.
What’s new?
My free “Ask Gib” product newsletter has more than 30,000 members. I answer questions from the product community and write about product, management, strategy, leadership, culture, and careers.
I have a new podcast with Lenny’s Podcast. We did five mini-cases and talked about product strategy.
My approach
I do both virtual and in-person talks and workshops. My talks combine Google Slides with Slido real-time polling to create engaging experiences. I do many cases, asking participants, “What would you do?” to keep them on the edge of their seats, and my talks have Net Promoter Survey scores in the 70s. (50 is considered good/great; 70 is world-class.)
