Rina Alexin's Hot Take - Our Stakeholders Are Just Doing Their Jobs & Product Managers Need To Understand Them Better (with Rina Alexin, CEO @ Productside)

One Knight in Product

Rina Alexin is the CEO of Productside, a leading product training and consulting company (formerly known as The 280 Group). Rina is passionate about furthering the craft of product management around the world.

Her hot take? Product managers complain about stakeholders, but they're just doing their jobs and we need to spend some of our energy on understanding them and properly collaborating rather than treating them as annoyances.
