The Hard Calls Behind Product Success

Most product teams don't fail because they lack ideas. They fail because they avoid the hard call: hedging scope, keeping options open, and shipping half-committed bets that go nowhere. This meetup is about the judgment that separates success from failure: making the right decision early, with incomplete information, and explaining why it matters to the business. What to expect: A deep dive on how product judgment actually works: how to frame real decisions, force trade-offs, and connect your calls to growth. Using a real example to make it concrete, with Miro AI-powered flows, to make the thinking visible. We will also have a moderated discussion where you bring the hard calls. Come ready to share, challenge, and learn from each other. We close with social drinks. Who is the Meetup for: PMs, designers, and builders welcome. Spots are limited. Your host: Krasi Bozhinkova, a Product and Design Leader at Owtcome, where she works with companies to turn messy realities into strategies that shape markets. She helps teams navigate high-stakes decisions when data is incomplete and trade-offs carry real costs. Krasi hosts the AI Pressure Cooker, a LinkedIn Live series to uncover the pressure, trade-offs, and judgment required to build in the age of AI. She also writes the Signal Brief on Substack, turning culture signals into concrete product and brand moves.
