ABOUT HOPE GURION

Hope started her coaching business for new product leaders to fill the need she saw in the market.  More and more she saw companies putting executives who have worked in functional roles close to product (marketing, engineering, strategy, support) in the product leader role.  They were often ill-equipped to coach and empower their teams in the most effective ways of product discovery and delivery and felt tremendous responsibility to their leadership, product-eng teams and investors.  She helps these new product leaders accelerate their efficacy using her “Phone-a-Friend” 1:1 coaching program. To help emerging product leaders around the world for free Hope created the “Fearless Product Leadership” podcast where 5 experienced product leaders share how they tackle the toughest responsibilities of the role.
