Thanks so much for hunting us @hnshah! It was an absolute pleasure to have you on the show. Today, I’m very excited to announce the Product CEOs interview series 🎙🤩 As a kid, I always struggled with finding role models and mentors. I was almost never inspired by my teachers at school and that made me question a lot of things about the traditional education system. At the same time, I’ve always been very curious about how to build digital products and leverage technology to make our lives better. My question was “how can I learn what I want from the best at it?” I went on this journey a loooong time ago, and it will never end (AKA lifelong learning!). I’m so grateful for the incredible mentors and technology leaders I’ve met along the way. So now it’s time for me to pay it forward and help other curious minds out there. Every Monday for the next 8 weeks, I will be releasing an interview with the CEO of a Silicon Valley company that I admire. These leaders were chosen not just for their exceptional skills and business success, but also for the culture and integrity of the companies they’re building ❤️. They are my kind of product people: ⭐️ Hiten Shah, CEO of Fyi - @hnshah ⭐️ Andrey Khusid, CEO of Miro - @Khusya ⭐️ Matin Movassate, CEO of Heap - @matinm ⭐️ Alfonso de la Nuez, CEO of UserZoom - @delanuez23 ⭐️ David Cancel, CEO of Drift - @dcancel ⭐️ Dave Fowler, CEO of Chartio - @__dave ⭐️ Rich Waldron, CEO of Tray.io - @richwaldron ⭐️ Mariano Suarez-Battan, CEO of Mural - @batmelon These are not typical cookie-cutter interviews designed to sell you something. In fact, the raw personal stories you’re about to hear will blow your mind. We went deep on things like: … How did they get started? … How do they learn and stay on top of their game? … What’s their day to day like? Do they follow any special routine? … What are some of the myths and misconceptions about building digital products? Now we can finally learn a little bit more about how to build successful products and companies from the people who have been there, done that. Subscribe for free and you’ll receive a new episode in your inbox or favorite podcast platform every Monday. I can’t wait to hear what you think!

@kayd_yonis1 oh, that's weird my friend. Can you see at least the blog?
Jeffrey Cammack
Do you guys think you could have found at least 1 female CEO to interview? (◔_◔)

@villaumbrosia It was **impossible** To find women in tech or leading product teams? Did you not have time for a 3 minute Google search? And even if you had to work with a limited pool of tech companies for some reason, was your commitment to the "CEO" acronym so important for this series that it was worth exacerbating the narrative that women only belong in support roles, rather than broadening which leaders you thought were worth speaking to? I'm interested in the perspectives of the speakers you have lined up, but I'm deeply disappointed by your response that women in tech are so elusive that you can't even find us - and that when you do you ignore us because our job title wasn't the one you were looking for.

Hey @villaumbrosia check this out - https://www.producthunt.com/post.... I've partnered w/ a few similar outlets for partnerships due to relevant audience and mutual value. Would you be interested? Looks like complete synergy.

Cool idea. Would be very interested in the strategies used to address the large initial cost of developing Saas products - maybe that'll be in the "how did they get started" section! Best of luck.
Carlos Gonzalez de Villaumbrosia
@tiarnan_okelly that's a great idea. I'm taking notes my friend.
Kurt Campher
Looking forward to this!

No offense but your lineup of experts appears to have zero diversity/representation. At first glance it serves to highlight what many perceive to be a serious problem in Silicon Valley.

Thanks for your feedback @jillybean I'll definitely add more women to our next podcast season. Actually, we recently launched an initiative to feature some of the most influential Women in Product who build and help others build digital products loved by millions of people https://productschool.com/women-... Most of them are active contributors to our community as speakers and instructors. Here's a longer list in case you're interested https://productschool.com/instru... We also pledged $500,000 to support women and other underrepresented groups in product management so they can get access to our on-demand courses for free https://productschool.com/schola... I believe in equal representation and access to employment opportunities regardless of race, color, religion, gender, national origin, age, disability, gender identity, sexual orientation, or any other legally protected class. Feel free to nominate any women in product you'd like us to have as a guest speaker and I'll make sure to reach out. Thanks!

Looking forward to the one with Andrey Khusid, CEO of Miro - @Khusya. Miro's a beautifully designed product. Very curious on the background.
