In this episode of All Things Product, hosts Petra Wille and Teresa Torres dive into a challenge many product leaders face—making time for deep work. Why is it so hard to block off focused time for strategic thinking, team alignment, and creative exploration? Why do so many product leaders feel guilty about stepping away from daily execution?
We explore how deep work can transform product strategy, improve decision-making, and boost team effectiveness. Petra shares insights from coaching product leaders who struggle to prioritize deep thinking, while Teresa offers practical tips on carving out time for what truly moves the needle.
Tune in to learn:
✅ What deep work really means in a product context
✅ Why product leaders often neglect it (and why that’s a problem)
✅ How to make time for strategic thinking—without feeling guilty
✅ Practical techniques to protect your calendar and focus on what matters
