Purposeful Product Transformation & Setting Leaders Up For Success (with Stephanie Leue, CPO @ MindE
Source: https://www.podbean.com/eau/pb-7r27v-102e127 An interview with Stephanie Leue. Stephanie is a product leadership coach, and became CPO of MindEx since our interview. Previously she worked in a variety of roles after starting out at PayPal after being coached by Marty Cagan. We talk about a lot, including: Her leadership coaching, being an invisible companion and sparring partner How she tries to set people up to not need her services, rather than continuously coaching them forever Her passion for hypergrowth startups, and the difference between a startup and an unsuccessful small company How a workshop with Marty Cagan left her realising that she had been a product manager all along How PayPal was a launchpad for her career, and some surprising information about their waterfall practices when she joined The challenges in transforming companies from waterfall to an agile product organisation How product managers might not be able to change the entire organisation but that their mindset is still key to drive transformation Whether lack of product thinking is the preserve of big companies alone, or if small startups can show the same behaviours The importance of making conscious decisions about the type of company you are - marketing-led, sales-led or product-led How she's not always been a good boss, thought she used to be terrible, and how she's using that to teach others to be better The impact of holding back too long and not making timely decisions And much more!

How can I become more "strategic"?
I asked myself this for years, feeling like it was some sort of miracle skill I just didn’t have. But here's what I finally learned: being strategic is less about mastering secret techniques and more about building a mindset. It's like training a muscle—you have to work at it.
Sure, data analysis, competitor checks, and trend analysis are part of the toolkit. But real strategy goes deeper. It’s about spotting patterns, seeing opportunities and risks, and understanding how today's choices will ripple into the future. It’s the ability to look through an adaptive, resourceful, and focused lens that balances quick wins with long-term challenges.
And yes, you can train this muscle. Once it’s strong enough, the magic happens: you’ll start connecting dots, seeing the bigger picture, and sharing a cohesive story. The basics can be learned, but the real skill grows naturally with time.
