In this special from the Productized Podcast, legendary product leader Rich Mironov breaks down one of the toughest challenges in product management: confusing speed with progress.
He explains why sales-driven chaos derails roadmaps, how misaligned incentives hurt product teams, and most importantly, how to speak the language of money so executives actually listen.
🎧 If you’ve ever felt trapped in endless stakeholder demands, this conversation will help you:
- Protect your roadmap from sales chaos
- Align incentives between sales and product
- Reframe product discussions in terms that executives understand
- Stop confusing “shipping faster” with “creating real impact”
